    2019 Tahoe reliability

    If she has the 5.3L engine, she has the 6L80 transmission. They are good transmissions, but the weak link is the torque converter (TC). GM programs them to lockup too frequently and wit too much slip, in order to meet fuel economy mandates and improve comfort, but it kills the lockup clutch in...

    21 Yukon bad wheel bearing with only 30000 miles

    You can buy the Timken part (the best) on Rock Auto for $71.79. The knuckle flange is different than the earlier generations (hence, not interchangeable) but the basic hub design and bearing is the same. I had to change one of mine in my '07 at around 245K but still have the original on the...

    Slow air rim leak 2016 22 inch polished rim

    Gotta first pinpoint precisely where the leak is coming from. I'd take the wheel off the truck and hit it with soapy water all the way around the tire, and everywhere you can access on the rim. I'm with Trey - I'll bet you'll find a hairline crack in the rim.

    Can The Water Pump Pulley Be Replaced?

    I'm sorry to hear about all of it :-( To answer your question, the pully isn't sold separately. If you're handy with a welder you might be able to tack it back on, but unfortunately I think you're looking at a new pump. If I still had my old one, I'd send it to you.

    2018 Yukon XL transmission and lifter problems

    Many of us here have been through the troubleshooting and diagnosis of these kinds of problems, many times. One thing you can do to help us help you is provide as much detail and clarity on what you're seeing/hearing/experiencing with your rig as possible. For example: Are you hearing any...

    Fuel leak - sending unit or retaining ring?

    Wow, that's good 'n rusty! The smart money is on replacing the fuel pump because the plate on top will rust out inside the ring. Also, the pumps start crapping out above 160K miles and have trouble maintaining steady pressure, followed by intermittent check engine lights, stabilitrak warnings...

    07 LT 5.3L Sudden no start/crank

    Nice sleuthing! We've seen corrosion take out the circuits on the bottom of the fuse block in the engine compartment and cause weird issues. So yes, you're likely on the right track.

    RWD 6L90E + AXN Axle Swap

    Yeah the frame crossmembers are totally different between the 1500 and 2500 chassis. I was just referring to the driveshaft length likely being okay. @L8T BURB did a 6.6L from an HD pickup with (I believe) a 6L90 attached to it in his K2xx generation 1500 Suburban, so he may have more insights...

    Possible front diff failure?

    See my answer to that in post #11 above.

    Possible front diff failure?

    Same with my '07 XL Denali. I only see that kind of play on the front driveshaft because that's the shaft that's driven by the chain inside the transfer case. The rear driveshaft is direct-driven off the transmission output shaft, so any play in the rear differential isn't going to be felt by...

    Possible front diff failure?

    Ah, that's not too bad at all. That's not 180º, which would have been excessive. Next step: get a cheap mechanics stethoscope from autozone and do exactly what you recorded but with the tip of the 'scope on the front diff housing, then the transfer case, then the diff mount areas to pinpoint...

    OK, Bought a 07 with a couple problems today.

    This will help you fix the P0011. Don is correct that it's normally an extremely reliable system. Sluggish oil pressure gauge and 15psi at hot idle are both normal.

    Possible front diff failure?

    That seems like a lot of backlash for the front diff. My 2007's will turn a little bit but nothing like that.

    RWD 6L90E + AXN Axle Swap

    It *should* work, but I don't know 100% for sure. @swathdiver may know.

    BW4485, rpo NR3, info

    Possibly, but I don't know for sure. You can get a cheap transmission jack from horrible freight that will let you drop the thing out so you can rebuild it on the bench, if that helps.

    Intermittent starting issue 2011 Yukon XL Denali

    Keep the Z95 suspension. Replacement GM or Arnott rear air ride and front mag ride shocks are relatively inexpensive on rock auto (compared to dealer prices), as is the compressor if it needs it. We've seen folks go to regular shocks and regret it, going back to the factory mag ride/air ride...

    Warranty

    This is the way. We squirrel away $500/mo. in a CapitalOne account we call "Car Fund". If we're lucky, there will be enough in it when we retire to buy any car we want, for cash. I've always done this, or whatever I could afford to save.
