    Question on Trans Oil Fill- 03 Tahoe

    I recently did a transmission flush, new filter etc. Took me a few top offs of fluid to get it back to the right level. In doing so, I think I added 1/2 quart too much. Here’s a picture of the dipstick. My thumb is the end point of the fluid when the engine is warm and running idle. In other...

    2008 GMC Sierra- Check Engine Light and Observations

    I lucked out. Cylinder 2 I pulled the plug and found a crack in it. $8.00 new plug, runs like a champ. Now I need a scan tool to clear the code. Anyone have recommendations for this,?

    2008 GMC Sierra- Check Engine Light and Observations

    10:30am: scan code reading P0302… cylinder misfire. I went back and checked all my plugs and wires. All tight and looked good. Maybe coil pack?

    2008 GMC Sierra- Check Engine Light and Observations

    2008 GMC Sierra 1500 Engine 5.3 Mileage 185k This has been a great truck with minimal issues. I recently changed fluids, and installed new spark plugs and wires. It’s been running great. Today I drove to work and parked. When I got in to leave, the check engine light came on solid and idle was...

    03 Tahoe AC Question

    So I just serviced my AC. Needed a new relay switch for the compressor and a few pumps from the can. Blows cold. Only issue is, when I press the snowflake, no cold. But then I hit the recirculate and the snowflake disappears, and blows cold. I took a picture. Seems when the snowflake appears...

    2003 Chevy Tahoe- Transmission Fluid Change

    So my transmission service is complete. Successful for the most part. Ended up having to drop the exhaust which was a pain in the ass like everyone said what a dumb design to run the exhaust directly over the pan. Anyhow, I flushed the old out from the trans line from the radiator, then drained...

    2003 Tahoe Service Ride Monitor

    I installed larger tires and now I have the code on my dash. I do have the autoride feature so maybe that’s the issue. I tried putting it in program mode to relearn the TPMS sensors, but it won’t go into program mode. I followed the sequence on turning the headlights on and off 4 times but my...

    4L60E Question

    Noted… I’ll keep this in mind on my next drive and see exactly where the occurrence is.

    4L60E Question

    My 4L60E is running pretty good overall. The one thing I do notice is a slight lag in between shifts. I understand this is common with the 4l60’s. In other words, doesn’t shift firm like it should. I planning on changing the fluid and new filter soon. I’ll also check the shift solenoids. I...

    2” RC Leveling Kit Question

    Agree. I’ve done these kits before, just not on Tahoe. My alignment shop is a good one. Just trying to get it at right height before taking it in. I’m almost there. Going to keep cranking the keys until it settles where I want it.

    2” RC Leveling Kit Question

    Thanks. That makes sense and I’ve read that that somewhere before. I’ll crank the keys some more and see what happens.

    2” RC Leveling Kit Question

    I installed a lift kit on my 03 Tahoe over the weekend. New keys, front shocks, control arms, tie rods etc. prior to the lift, I measured 36” in the front. Post lift, I’m at 38.5” when I crank the keys where I want them. Then after I lower it to the ground and drive around the block I’m down to...

    Water Leak Under Transmission

    I ruled that out. A/C currently not working due Freon leak somewhere. Weird thing is I’m not losing coolant anywhere. I’ll take a closer look this weekend.

    Water Leak Under Transmission

    While working on my suspension leveling kit this weekend, I noticed a pool of water underneath the tranny. After a closer look, it appears to be coming from above and draining down alongside the tranny dipstick, hence the pinkish water in the photo. It seems to be intermittent, but today is...

    Electric Fan Conversion Question

    Thanks for the effort here I do appreciate it greatly. My only variance to what your saying is, my black and blue goes to the passenger side fan, which I would consider the second fan. Correct me if im wrong. Now, the way I see it there is one black ground coming from the fuse block. That wire...

    2003 Chevy Tahoe- Transmission Fluid Change

    On my 03 Tahoe, thinking of changing the trans fluid and filter. I purchased this truck couple months back, so still in the process of going through everything. Although the transmission fluid looks clean, nice and red, I’m thinking what the hell. Might as well change it out and throw a new...

    Electric Fan Conversion Question

    I think you answered my question here. All I need to do is tap the black wire coming from the fuse block and route a separate run to a grounding source.
