    Looking for low cost replacement for stereo head unit in 2003 Tahoe LS...

    Ditto @Joseph Garcia advice... I just got a Boss Audio head unit from Crutchfield. Plug and play. https://www.crutchfield.com/product/item/default.aspx?i=104BE7ACP If you have a double din opening, this radio will fit the dash without cutting. For $25, it was worth every penny to order the...

    Blend door actuator question

    Yes. At least we can rule out the easiest and obvious and work from there.

    Changing out front calipers.

    Sometimes, the crush washers will will stick to the end connector of the hose or the back of the caliper. Look for the copper washer and flick it off with a knife or putty knife. Be sure both washers are removed and use the new ones. You don't want to double up on the washers. That might cause...

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

    If replacing O2 sensors with new... I disconnect the connector from the harness and snip the pigtail off the O2 sensor with wire snips. That way, you do not need any special tool or socket to remove. Without the connector plug on the sensor, you can easily slip a good box wrench on the sensor...

    2023 Tahoe LT Lemon

    Issue was never resolved. Since the Blazer was not involved in any state lemon law arbitration proceedings, it was not tagged as a lemon. Sure it had a history of complaints and attempts to fix it and a list of service notes documenting the issue while I had it. The information was there for the...

    Blend door actuator question

    Just to check the obvious... Coolant level is good? Are both hoses the the heater core hot (one very hot and the other just a little less hot)?

    2023 Tahoe LT Lemon

    Yeah. I agree. ECM issues are rare. Not impossible, so I mentioned anyway... Really seems like more of potential electrical issue to me. Very possible a wire or connector loose or damaged. My main suggestion is inline with yours. Find another service center. I wouldn't trust the current one...

    2023 Tahoe LT Lemon

    P.S.: I had a 93 Chevy S-10 Blazer 4 door that had an issue the dealer could not resolve after 2 attempts. They called in a regional guy from GM to come out and see what could be done. They did what he suggested the third time and was still a no-fix. When I mentioned invoking the MA state lemon...

    2023 Tahoe LT Lemon

    I would look for another authorized service shop. Someone with a brand new vehicle having their truck sit in the lot for a few days before they got around to checking what was wrong?! Doesn't seem right. They should have put someone on this right away (if not the next morning)! Clearing the code...

    Discussion on drivers door window switches for proper selection of

    I can't help with part numbers... But, I can tell you that the heated mirrors on my 04 Tahoe Z71 come on when the rear defrost button is activated. There is no switch on any door panel switch modules for rear view mirror heat. Just the mirror adjustment controls, 4 windows and the door lock...

    Do we have any snow runner's.....aad just wanted 2 Wish yall a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.....and be safe out there....

    We got heavy downpours and 57F on Friday afternoon. Ended up with about 1.5 of rain in 24 hours. Then wicked (translation for people outside MA: wicked = really) windy, like 45 MPH gusts. Then 12 hours later it was 12F! 7F when I got up this morning. It will be a green, frozen Christmas for my...

    Best radio I've ever had

    If you can't easily source Bose originals from Ebay or whatever, give the techs at Crutchfield a call. They will be able to find you an aftermarket replacement that matches the impedance and other specifications for you to keep the rest of the system. They don't care if you buy today or six...

    Best radio I've ever had

    If keeping the factory Bose amp, you would need to: a) Replace speakers with original Bose speakers -or- b) Find non-Bose speakers that match the Bose speaker specifications. Bose designed really efficient (power-wise) speakers as part of the integrated system with their amp. Since the speakers...

    Well i found the source of my coolant leak (big crack)

    Original lasting more 20 years or so? That is actually pretty impressive for plastic and aluminum combo, if you think about it! If a quality plastic/aluminum replacement (probably a GM direct replacement) is half as good and could last 10 years, that would be not so bad...

    Oil filter recommendations?

    I have been happy with NAPA Gold 51042. https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/FIL1042?impressionRank=1 Manufacturer of this is WIX... Rated for 21 microns. The NAPA Platinum is also rated for 21 microns, so Gold is good enough for my Tahoe unless Platinum is on sale...

    Membership Upgrades

    Hi @Shaggy ... I don't have the issue above. I figure while we have your attention on this thread, maybe you could check my membership upgrade while you are "under the hood" of the web site. I DM earlier about upgrade paid on 11/30. I still see ads and membership status hasn't changed yet...

    How much?

    That is exactly the type of shop I was suggesting one of our members from West Palm Beach to seek out. I was suggesting to look further out away from the WPB shops that can charge people with open checkbooks for their Lambos and McLarens. I told him he might do better (at least in the wallet)...

    How much?

    That really seems reasonable. Time and materials... Always the biggest factors in paint/body work. Some paint companies make better product than others. But even then, one company is likely to have different "levels" of paint in their product lines. More or less pigment, more or less whatever...

    Just to clarify... The friend had the same speaker or the "ex" in his Focus?

    Factory Bose Entertainment System: Radio Lights Up. No Sound

    Pull connectors on the harnesses and spray down with electrical terminal cleaner spray. Worth a try.
