    Mystery Noise

    Make sure every part of your brakes is put in right and lined up properly. Even if you've got new brakes, little things like bolts, clips, and shims could be off or even missing, causing noise. I'd say give everything a good once-over to make sure it's all snug and in the right place.

    Got awful smell inside Tahoe

    Based on what you're saying about that funky smell, it sounds like mold or mildew might be lurking somewhere in your ride, maybe hiding under the seats or carpet where you haven't given a good scrub yet. Sometimes, even a little water leak or just the air being too damp can trap moisture and...

    01 Shutting off no crank, no start.

    Check the simple stuff. Make sure those battery terminals are clean and snug. Sometimes, if they're not, it can mess with how your car behaves. Then, give your battery a quick check-up with a voltmeter or battery tester to see if it's in good shape.

    Brake Pad Monitor

    I'd guess that some cars, especially newer ones, might have sensors that keep an eye on the brake pads. Since your car is pretty new, you might have one of these.

    New Hankook Dynapro ATMs Installed by Previous Owner - Should I Change My Tires?

    I'd try out your current tires on different roads, especially highways, since that's where you really notice road noise and comfort. If the ride feels too bumpy or you hear a lot of noise, it might be worth getting tires designed for smoother rides on roads. But if they seem okay to you, I'd...

    How do I get my Tahoe to ride/handle like my 3500HD?

    I'd recommend swapping out the stock rubber bushings for polyurethane ones. It really helps with better handling and responsiveness.

    Seat belt bolt part #?

    33 ft/lbs sounds like a reasonable torque for a seat belt bolt, but it's always best to check your vehicle's manual or service docs to be sure. You don't want to over-tighten or under-tighten these bolts because it could affect safety. So, I would definitely stick to what the manufacturer...

    SOLVED - ABS light on after new front hub assy install(both sides)

    MOOG is usually a solid brand, but sometimes you can get a bad part. If the hub bearings aren't made right or they have a flaw, it might mess up the built-in ABS sensors. If I were in your shoes, I'd check the output from each sensor while spinning the wheels to see if the readings are off.

    Best Dash mat?

    I'd go for a mat that's made of a non-reflective material—it helps cut down on glare.

    Which brand of struts do you recommend for 2015 Yukon with Magneride?

    For cars with MagneRide, like your Yukon, the struts are usually made by companies that specialize in high-tech suspension systems. GM, which owns GMC, often sources MagneRide parts from Delphi or BWI Group. These suppliers create struts that are designed to work seamlessly with the vehicle's...

    Problems after replacing hub assembly

    If you're hearing new noises and the car pulls to one side or screeches at a certain speed right after getting the hub assembly replaced, it could be a problem with how the new part was installed. Maybe the hub assembly wasn't put in right, or something else got messed up during the installation.

    Thinking about buying a used 13' Cadillac

    If you are a skilled mechanic, then the only thing that matters to you is the price of spare parts.

    Thinking about buying a used 13' Cadillac

    The Escalade has 127K miles on it, which is kind of high, but not too unusual for its age. The important thing is the condition of the car. Since it's said to be 'pretty clean' and big parts like lifters, push rods, and an engine mount were recently replaced at a dealership, that's a good...

    '07 Yukon XL Denali Heated Seat Button

    I guess you just spoke too soon, it happens. Well, keep us updated on how a new one will behave.

    '07 Yukon XL Denali Heated Seat Button

    From my experience, heated seats usually have a relay and a fuse. If the relay is acting up or the fuse is close to blowing, your seats might work only sometimes. But, if other things that share that relay or fuse are working okay, then that's probably not the problem.

    Accessory Drive Belt Maintenance?

    Rubber belts wear out as they get older, thanks to heat and all sorts of environmental stuff. So even if your belt hasn't hit the recommended mileage for replacement, it's a good idea to swap it out if it's been 6-7 years.

    14 LTZ Shutter/shake/ vibration under light throttle

    You might be dealing with an exhaust leak. This could explain both the noise and the vibration. But also, worn motor mounts could be a problem. When they wear out, they don't do a good job of absorbing the engine's movements, which can lead to all kinds of shaking and rattling. It's worth...

    To good to be true? / Advice

    Even if the dealer said that they're done negotiating, if the Chevy inspection turns up some serious issues, that might give you a chance to talk about the price again. Basically, if something big comes up that makes you rethink buying the Tahoe, you might be able to use that info to negotiate a...

    Benefits of the diesel?

    From what I've seen, diesel engines tend to be better on fuel compared to gas engines, especially in big vehicles like trucks or SUVs. If you're often towing or carrying heavy stuff, you'll really notice the difference because you won't need to fill up as often. That's a big plus for a lot of...

    2024 diesel allocation?

    That seems like a lot of waiting. I assume the dealer can change the date again. I hate when things like this happen.

    Trailer cameras

    Hi mate! As far as I know, a lot of folks use this car to pull a trailer, so your car probably has this trailer option. I can't tell exactly what your picture is showing, though. But I reckon places that sell trailers and RVs would know a thing or two about these camera systems and how they fit...
