    2009 Tahoe: AC inconsistance Fan between driver/pass

    Ah..interesting...that actually sounds more likely the issue I'm seeing...as when I cycle the controls I get it to work and blow cold no problem, but it doesn't default to that position....so I did some interwebbing on Blend Door Actuators and found this little segment about 'recalbrating' the...

    2009 Tahoe: AC inconsistance Fan between driver/pass

    So my AC in my 2009 Tahoe, blows plenty cold, but not always on the driver side, but always on the Pass. side. I can temporary fix it by cranking the driver/pass temps is opposite directions several times, then everything goes back to normal.....Until I stop the truck, then it goes back to warm...

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

    Whats the wheels size you can run with 14"?...(asking cause my snows are still on 17"...would like to see that change to 20" once the tires wear out or get sold) In my experience regarding brakes- the bigger the better. 14" with good rotors/pads should improve stoppage dramatically...

    Get a catch can before any mods.

    I've been off this board for many years, but I recently found my back to find solutions. My 09' Tahoe has been steady, clocking in at 189k; traveling sales puts on the milage. But the 'Oil Consumption' has increased which I need to change...So I replaced the Valve Cover (but in the process...

    09 Tahoe....Bump steer after adding 20" on- help!

    Thanks Modded! I believe you are right...and even if they aren't worn (since I only have 7K on the truck) the LT shock either have way too much rebound on the front which is leading them to pack up or the valving is just off......it was pretty amazing what those 17" were soaking up...

Now my truck only has 6500 miles, but it does not have Autoride, just standard LT shocks. Could it be the OE...
