    Yep, I have car-part bookmarked but, after I burnt myself with another website, promising low mileage with warranty (caught it on time and canceled) I am rather hesitant to trust online sellers. So you saying, car-part is decent...

    Engine advice

    We had intelligent scanner connected to the ECU. Cleaned a bunch of old faults. Truck starts with no problem but, runs rough and with loud tapping noise. Givbe me credit on one thing - I worked on my cars since 1990. Being 66, I just don't have back enough to pull engine heads and replace...

    Daily driver. I want a better bigger car. My daily commuter is 98 Grand Marquis, bare bone. That Tahoe is a nice car. But I am frugal person.

    Engine advice

    Hi all here's the skinny. I bought 2007 Tahoe, VIN option 0 8th digit, as "mechanical" from auction. 142000 miles. It's LT model with all blows and whistles for the year. I paid $4100 plus fees for it. Entire purchase was based on me having a mechanic, that I knew since his age 11, fix it for...

    Non functional liftgate button.

    I had it replaced yesterday. About 30 min job. It works fine now. Only ALL locks have to be unlocked for it to operate. 2 fob unlock presses and then it works. No need for needle noses, plenty of room to get to all the nuts and bolts, as soon as the rear panel is removed.

    Non functional liftgate button.

    I have 07 Tahoe LTZ. Liftgate opens from fob or from the overhead button. Handle button on the liftgate produces no result. rear glass window button liftgate works fine. Fuse #44, which is rear door fuse, is not blown. Any more fuses to look at or, what else is wrong?

    Yeah, I figured that much about Stabilitrack. Another good news - tailgate opens and closes from the inside button and remote. Handle buttons don't work or, I am not doing it right. Found milkshake in oil cap. Will have new mechanic come and do diagnostics at my place, with me present, in few...

    A bit of tailgate update. When I turn key to Aux, I can hear tailgate motor running for few seconds. Like as if it is trying to tighten the tailgate. Something tells me, tailgate is jammed or has something caught in the latch.

    Ok, so I have good news and bad news. Goods news, it's a very nice truck. Even AC works. Got lots of blows and whistles. I ran Toque on it and shows that all sensors, it had access to, check out fine. Here's the bad news: 1. Service stabilitrack is on all the time. Now, truck had brakes damaged...

    This is dragging slowness but I am doing my best to resolve it. So at this point, after 2 months in "my mechanic" hands, I am pulling vehicle out. He gave it to electrician 3 or so weeks ago, promised to take it back 2 weeks ago and still does not have it back. I am doing my best to recover...

    Truck has 155000 miles, so dirty injectors/fuel filter are plausible and won't hurt to clean anyway.

    "dirty injectors" code?

    Thank you. A bit of update. It is 2007 Tahoe LTZ, I looked it up through VIN decoder. Rear air shocks were completely torn, so we replaced them. That didn't help with engine run he he. Vehicle drove - yes, it drives, just runs rough - a mile away from the original shop to car electrician shop...

    P0300 randomly appearing and disappearing. So much for scanner. Rough idle. So much for symptoms. CEL randomly coming up and disappearing.

    Sorry for a bit of unclear question, I should have taken snap shot, but for now, I'll shoot blank. I just bought auctioned 2007 Tahoe. Engine runs a bit rough, not too bad, and there's random misfire code. Truck is in my pal's shop, I know him since his age 11, he won't lie to me. So far, he...
