    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Just because the white T fitting still looks white doesn't tell you anything. I replaced mine in 2017 and it's still white. The old one was really brown colored, but it was the original one from 2001. And I know it was the original one, because I bought my truck in early 2006 with only 52k...

    04 yukon denali OBD port has power and scanner powers up but wont connect

    Watch some YouTube videos from "South Main Auto". He has dealt with this problem on numerous different vehicles. Unfortunately, it involves a lot of wire tracing and probing to figure it out. Most likely you have a corroded, broken or damaged wire somewhere. Some of the videos he found...

    Small Coolant leak from hvac heater hose quick connector

    I replaced both T connectors and quick connectors on my 2001 back in 2017 before I went on a 3,000 mile road trip. I used the Dorman brand connectors from Rockauto. I just had to replace one of the quick connects again last year. I should probably replace the rest of them just to be proactive.

    Got awful smell inside Tahoe

    Why not? It's just vapor, it's not like I soaked it in gasoline. Actually, it's not even gas "vapor". It's just the residual smell. If I Actually had true gasoline "vapor" in my truck, I would not have been able to even breath. If it was truly gas vapor, then it was EXTREMELY diluted. Like...

    Got awful smell inside Tahoe

    Once you do find the source, I'll tell you something that might be able to help get rid of the smell. Plain Ole charcoal briquettes. Just open a large flat cardboard box or plastic tote or whatever, and dump a whole 16lb bag of charcoal in it and let that just sit in your truck for a week or...

    03 Tahoe vs 05 Tahoe Gauge Cluster Interchangeability

    I've heard from multiple sources that although the clusters are the same, the software is different. So to use a 03 cluster on an 05, it needs to be reflashed or programmed. Supposedly 03-04 are 100% direct swap, EVERYTHING is the same. And 05-06 is a direct swap. But if using a 05-06 cluster...

    ABS module repair

    The process to "rebuild" the ABS Module is usually just resoldering all the solder joints on the relays and the coils on the circuit board. I repaired my module like this about 3-4 years ago and it's been working fine ever since. I have not had a single ABS light on ever since. I took a ton of...

    05 Yukon Denail Got Broken Into

    This is why I deleted my keyholes on the front passenger door and the drivers door. I swapped the door handles with rear door handles, and removed the lock cylinder and lock rod. The only drawback is that I'm SOL if my battery goes dead. And that actually DID happen to me. Had to use a door...

    2002 Yukon Denali hvac module

    Your best bet is to search the junkyard, or buy a Dorman unit from Rockauto or something. Keep in mind, that you don't HAVE to get the AC board from another Denali. Some of the higher LT trim Tahoes and Suburbans had that same Automatic AC control panel, as did the Yukons. Since you have a...

    07+ Brake upgrade on a 00-06 NBS, is it worth it?

    Also, since I'm the one who started this thread, I guess I should give somewhat of an update. I did this brake upgrade in February of 2017 on my 2001 Suburban, which is my daily driver. It's now seven years later, and I'm about due for new brake pads and rotors. I don't know the exact mileage...

    07+ Brake upgrade on a 00-06 NBS, is it worth it?

    To answer your question, YES. The GMT900 brake upgrade on a 00-06 will fit fine with 17" wheels. I did the swap on my 2001, and I have 17" wheels on my truck. Just be aware that if you don't get a 17" spare as well, then you will have to be aware of this if you get a flat tire on a front wheel...

    rear main seal replacement

    I was going to say oil pan gasket, because the oil pan needs to be lowered to get that rear engine cover off. But then I saw that you had the oil pump replaced about 10-15k miles ago. You may be able to re-use that oil pan gasket, but I personally wouldn't because they are not very expensive...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    My Father in Law did the same thing, not once, not twice, but THREE times! He has a rock/gravel driveway and he had the discharge chute on the mower pointed towards the house. The driveway is a good 20-25 feet from the house, but thats still close enough to shatter a window twice, and most...

    Door lock actuator

    GMT800 SUV's were sold up until 2003 with the barn doors as an option, OR the lift gate. I've heard some people mention that they have seen it on a few 2004 models, but as far as I know it stopped in 2003, and all 04-06 models came with liftgates.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Dang, I need one of those for my truck! Maybe I missed it, but did you post a link to where you purchased this from? Or did you 3D print it yourself?

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Fought with the rear hatch handle this weekend. Looks like I'm going to have to replace it. Every so often, it will NOT unlock, and I can't get the hatch to open. The window pop button will not work either. I managed to get the interior panel off to access the laych assembly, and it seems like...

    NBS / GMT800 Escalade rear window & 3rd brake light for sale.

    I guess it's worth checking into. But I can tell you right now, the shipping cost will NOT be cheap. It will most likely be a lot more than what I'm asking for the glass itself.

    Any tips on bug and road tar/gunk remover?

    The absolute best Bug and Tar remover that I have ever used is a product made by Stoner. It's called Stoner Tarminator bug and tar remover. I sometimes find it at Advanced Auto Parts and O'Reilly Auto Parts, but you can order it from Amazon and several derailing websites as well such as Autogeek.

    2001 chevy tahoe 5.3. NEED HELP PLZ!!

    I see where you're going with this, and I'll also chime in as well. If it's running okay when first started (engine not fully warmed up yet) but sputtering and hesitates upon acceleration when the engine is up to operating temp, that a classic sign of an intake manifold gasket leak. But you said...

    Decided to Sell my Tahoe

    Sweet rig. Good God that thing is CLEAN!!! Good luck with the sale. Those two door Tahoes are quite desirable, and the REWD one seem to actually fetch MORE mobey rgat the 4wd ones do. And I'm not sure why they STILL make you have at least 150 posts before you can list something for sale in...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Damn near every time I place an order with Rockauto, I stock up on wiper blades. I have not found cheaper blades ANYWHERE! So if I'm paying for shipping anyways, I'll get at least two or three sets for each vehicle. And I usually keep three blades under the second row seat in my truck. Two for...
