    I need my 01 Yukon xL 5.3 louder but not ear piercing

    The PO installed Corsa Performance stainless cat-back system on my 04 5.3. LOVE IT!!! A little grumbly and rough around the edges, but only in the way a great American V8 should be. Step on it and it lets you know it is there, but tame on the highway. Great sound on around town, not too loud. It...

    P0300 random misfire

    I had misfires on an 05 4.0L Jeep. Was actually fuel related. It kept happening until my fuel pump completed died one day. I would suggest checking fuel pressure before, during and after start-up and warm-up to see what you have going on. A gauge can get loaned out from your parts stores with...

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

    I know you did not let the rain spots stay there long enough to harden up and leave deposits all over everything... The microfiber cloth was twitching in your hands while you were snapping these pics! Am I right on calling that one?

    Please help- P0455 Evap Emission

    I have been choosing to ignore mine for the last few months. Until recently, too cold to bother with! Low priority; and has not interfered with operation one bit. In my case, I know for a fact it has nothing to do with my gas cap. We just had a recent 2-day wave of 90+ F temps. I ran my tank...

    Best way to play music from iPhone with stock radio?

    Full disclosure: @TollKeeper is correct. I did not get all-in for $250... For $383.01, I did get everything to use my Bose system, steering wheel controls, and have all the modern conveniences from Crutchfield. Boss Audio BE7 ACP head unit Metra GM-10 Antenna Adapter Metra 95-2001 Dash Kit...

    Best way to play music from iPhone with stock radio?

    I know you may have reasons for wanting to keep the stock head unit, but IMHO, the cost for options to do that are way too close the to cost of modern head units with things like: On-screen display of whatever your phone is doing, Apple Car Play/Android Auto, NAV, touch-screen control of NAV...

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

    Since we're still way off-topic and seems to be a lull in action with the trucks... I'll vouch for Weber. I got a Genesis II Special edition. From what I read, it was the last model still being made in the USA. It has needed nothing but LP gas and a replacement cover since since I bought it...

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

    I have a Tech 2, so I can check the valve response to open/close commands. I haven't had time to pull it out and test yet. Purge valve is new. Never had problems filling the tank. Even after the pressure build-up last night, I was able to fill the tank OK. At least I know the cap is not the...

    Mechanic needed

    With these trucks, I tend to side with the mechanic for the most part... (See exception below.) Swapping stuff out, just because a part is old does not always work out for the better. A lot of factory original parts that have gone 100k+ miles may have been produced at a time when quality was...

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

    Has been in low to mid-90's F the last two days... I ran the gas down to about 5 gallons. Opened the gas cap and PSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSH! Holy crap!! The rush of escaping air blasted me in the face like the Avatar ride at Disney! The air rushing out kept going and going and going. Seemed like for...

    Yukon 2000 - 200,000 Miles - BC, Canada - Second Set of Eyes

    That would be an OK arrangement too.

    Yukon 2000 - 200,000 Miles - BC, Canada - Second Set of Eyes

    I would be hesitant, too. I wouldn't just hand over keys to my truck to any Joe Schmoe, who might be out boosting trucks or looking for a getaway vehicle to be used in a bank robbery... I'm not even sure I would want to go with them. They might slit my throat and toss me in a ditch before...

    Yukon 2000 - 200,000 Miles - BC, Canada - Second Set of Eyes

    From what little I saw in videos, the frame looked pretty good. I could not see if there were any holes in the sides of the frame, but the bottom actually looked pretty clean. The inspection report made my head spin. I haven't finished my first cup of coffee yet and I couldn't make any sense of...

    2002 Suburban door trim- where can I find this?

    Not sure if stuck on with 3M tape or has clips... But if it was stuck on with 3M tape, I would be tempted to pull them all off and buff the area behind it. Might be easier and would give a clean look. I think it might be 3M... A PO de-badged mine and looks to have also removed the door rub...

    Tahoe dies out while driving not all the time. What's going on???

    I had an issue with side post to top post battery adapter clamps. I stripped the threads once and stuck a couple of toothpicks in the threaded hole to give it some bite (and old woodworking trick with stripped screws). It held pretty good, so I kind of forgot about them for a while longer than I...

    Flickering interior and headlights

    Sometimes I feel like I might sound like a broken record (now, there's a phrase that shows my age...), but ground connections... Inspect, clean & tighten. Pretty sure headlamps have a ground in the engine bay. I could be wrong, but I kind of think it is near the radiator (driver's side?)...

    Part 1: center console delete.

    I haven't seen how to do that kind, but I imagine it would all be removable. I am sure others have done that to replace or swap stuff out...

    285/60R18 tires fit on 2001 Yukon Denali?

    265/70 R17 That was the what the Z71 off-road package included for wheel/tire upgrade. I agree the width and sidewall ratio is excellent for combined highway and mild/moderate off-roading. I just got Cooper AT3 4S all-terrains. Smooth, semi-aggressive tread, but not loud, Sever Snow rated. Very...

    Electrical - where to begin

    If I wasn't in a hurry, the most I would have waited might be a year at most... And that would only have been if I had recommendations from other customers and had seen museum quality results. Hindsight is 20/20, I know. But I am amazed you had the patience to hold on for 2 whole years. At...

    Love the look. But, it would probably be extremely painful the first time you have to start cutting into all that hard work to trace down a circuit issue... Split loom for me.

    Replaced crank position sensor, vehicle cranks but wont start

    My understanding is that Delphi was/is a primary supplier of OE parts to GM anyway. My old radio has Delphi stamped on it. I do not give a second thought to buying Delphi. Fuel pump for my Jeep and O2 sensors for my 04 Tahoe have been flawless. If real GM is not available, I would not hesitate...

    Lifter Tick on New Engine

    Now, THERE's a nugget for ya! Never saw that happen, never heard of that being an issue. I learn new stuff all the time! Thanks for that...
