    Baking head lights

    IIRC, they were saying that you can bake out the Yukon housing, but the Tahoe one should be cut. Something about the glue needing a temp. high enough to melt the housing maybe, though I'm not sure why they would be so different. I know I'd rather bake than cut.

    tahoe can't climb!!

    Yeah I'd be checking sensors. Doesn't sound like compression (would be constant) or valve covers. Check wiring and contacts from sensors/ sending units/ MAF/ anything you find; are good.

    08 tahoe engine

    Oh I think it's because the early 07s were 6.0 and then it changed to 6.2, but I'm not sure exactly when. Suburban and Tahoe still both run the same.

    Third row seat stuck

    Sounds like it was not locked in properly to begin with. It won't fold right if it's not right on track. Same thing probably causing it to not unlatch right either.

    Chrome Mirror bottom

    Agreed. The tape should do the trick IF the surface is prepped correctly. It is that way with many things.

    08 tahoe engine

    I think there's a 4.8L, but only in an LS model. You'd never get one in an LTZ, that's for sure. And I think the LTZ engine option upgrade now is a 6.2L. Which I'd die to have it in my 4X4, but they won't do it yet.

    hay guys it is the new be again.

    You would think that it would hardly do a thing, but then it seems to actually do like 3 different things really well.

    Water Gushing out from right side of engine bay...

    Was it water or coolant? 2-3 cups isn't much if it was from rainfall, cooling system, or maybe WW fluid reservoir. But it sounds like external run-off of some sort, I know that if you had a hole in your cooling system flowing that much it would have kept flowing until dry, and you wouldn't...

    Leveling Kit

    Sure, why not? Your concern should be aftermarket changing wheel width and track width, as with backspacing.

    How would you jump start a hybrid? Curious...

    If it has (it should) a 12v battery for the gas motor's primary ignition system, then I would think that you could jump in or out both the same as normal. Just don't mess with the big batteries.

    Estimate for new sound system for 2008 Tahoe?

    Talk to Gambler, he can help you I'm sure. Besides all new components, you will need all the necessary adapters to link all the controls, chimes, etc. Don't know which ones, but they are out there.

    Oh you mentioned it alright, you mentioned it twice! Congratulations on the buy, I think you'll like it a lot, and find a lot of info here on the site.

    Whining noise from frontend 04 LT AWD

    So the button with 4 wheels on it is 4 High, I would think. And if it has 4 Low it's a 4WD, not AWD, I would think. You should post a pic of the switch to be sure. And GMTech48 is probably right, says it's common. And no they don't whine all the time, they tend to act up or pronounce under load.

    site for sore eyes...

    Yeah it's still like that down here, but isn't it like 2.30-2.50 right now? LA and OC. But this is a good drop from those ridiculous highs. I just hope it lasts. Opec keeps trying to pull chitt too.

    Can spark plug gap affect mpgs?

    It can absolutely affect mpg, and performance, efficiency. It can only be gapped correctly or it gets worse from there. Too little gap is like muting it and too much is like misfiring. If you're not adjusting it in consideration of the ignition system, combustion chamber, fuel induction and...

    Whining noise from frontend 04 LT AWD

    You sure it's not a Four wheel drive? It sounds like the ring and pinion is bad in a differential (axle gears). You just described the symptoms. Almost want to say it's the back one and you hear it bouncing forward, but it can be the front gears. Sounds like all that pulling it like a...

    Can Anyone Here Pray for my Family?

    Thank you all very much. I never want this kind of attention, but all of your words in all their ways really do mean a lot, for real. I don't know why but it does. Thanks.

    Can Anyone Here Pray for my Family?

    Sorry not Tahoe related. On Halloween night, while I was taking my 3 year old out for candy, my little cousin killed himself a couple states over. He was 21 and his mom died of cancer a few months ago. Soon after that he tried suicide, but was found and saved. He took large amounts of his...

    interior and dash light question

    I would say the dome light switch was turned off, right above the adjustment dial, but are you saying that the dash readings blacked out too?
