( I decided to start a new thread in an effort to consolidate all of the posts on this) I along with others on here have experienced mysterious and random front windshield washer operation; driving along when suddenly the washers begin to pump fluid,and keep pumping until the tank runs dry...

How do I hate thee?....Let me count the ways.... Last week, a day after a snowstorm, the washers quit. I had to drive nearly 50 interstate miles in the salt spray with no washer. Last night, blinding snowstorm, 22 degrees, and the blower suddenly quit, it was like someone turned it off...

While renewing my Sirius service last night, I spoke to the customer rep (Actually spoke English as a first language, fancy that) about having to carry two full subscriptions to both services as my vehicles have both services in them. He told me that in June, Sirius XM will offer the opposite...

I was in my dealership purchasing a case of filters, when I commented on how small the PF48 filter was for the size of the engine. The parts guy went away, came back and dropped a PF61 filter on the counter. "I didn't give this to you, but this one is bigger and is the exact diameter, and...

Does anybody know what color the transfer case fluid is? I think it's called Auto Trak II fluid. I have greenish colored oil on the underside of my Tahoe.

Did a 700 mile trip this week and noticed early on the the rear hatch glass was covered with an oil mist. At first I thought I drove thru something, but a look underneath revealed entire underside wet with oil but nothing on the the wheelhouse liners. It appears that I've lost about a quart...

I have to remove the rear plastic wheelhouse liner on the driver's side. Has anyone done this? There are a number of plastic button fasteners. Wondering if these are the reusuable kind? I assume the rear tire must be removed first?

While giving my Tahoe a much needed Spring bath yesterday, I noticed pinpoint rust colored stains everywhere on the white paint. I verified it was a stain by using a magnifying glass, and by buffing the stain off with a cleaner. There is no perforation of the paint. The mark was definitely a...

Enjoy your body-on-frame construction boys, because it's reported in today's edition of Autotech Daily that if it gets approved, GM is switching all of their SUV's to unibody construction. The switch coincides with the next major redesign. Right now the 9XX platform is used on the Silverado...

Always a pensive moment when your bumper to bumper warranty is about to expire, and for me it will happen on the drive home tonight. "Did I make the right move not getting the extended warranty?":confused2: "Should I have taken it to the dealer after that one time when the wipers came on all...

Gremlins are at work on my Tahoe. 1) My heated washers cycled once out of three and quit. I couldn't get it to work without cycling the ignition off and on. 2) Filling up the other day with the engine idling. I notice that the washers are running full tilt, and the wipers are wiping. No...

How responsible is a non-selling dealer for warranty servicing of your vehicle? I gave this relatively local dealer first dibs on selling me an S Plan Tahoe; no hassles, no dealing. All he had to do was open the book, show me the price, and boom!, deal. The dealership didn't even give me the...

Any oil changers notice this?: Directly above the oil filter is an oval shaped plate vertically oriented with a bolt at either end of the oval. There appears to be oil leaking from around this plate. Between my last change, about 7500 miles, the oil leaked out enough to run down the filter...

Anyone else have this problem? I know I saw somewhere else here or on another forum. I can't find it now. Yesterday, I opened just the hatch window, and the coiled wire going to one side of the defogger element pulled off the foil on the glass. I looks like it's just soldered, but I don't...

Was wondering if someone, somewhere where it's cold (below freezing) and who has the Automatic Climate Control option on their '07 Tahoe can check their A/C for me and tell me whether the little snowflake icon button stays on when pressed. I went to turn mine on today and the button will not...

I thought it would be interesting being that you can get this information, to post your vehicle's miles versus engine hours to determine an average speed. In fact, I'm throwing the gaunlet down and challange anyone with 100 hours or more, to beat my average speed. :fu: Engine Hours: 264...

On the center console, there is an extension trim panel that closes the gap between the console and the firewall. I'm interested in the passenger side. Does anyone know how to remove that small panel?

I came out from work today and hit the fob to open the doors....nothing. Manually unlock and get in, turn key....zippo. Within 9 hours, the battery was entirely discharged. This is the first incident in 10 weeks of ownership and 5,500 miles. Does anyone know what triggers the discharge...

FIrst oil change today. What a mess. The oil was hot and watery. When I let the plug go, the stream shot farther out than I estimated and all over the driveway. I said a few words on that one! :cuss: Then as the stream slowed, the pan had to be repositioned to catch the stream. It has to be...

I want to remove the tray insert in the center console to utilize the area (if there is any) beneath it. Has anyone removed it, and if so, how? Thanks.
