    4WD not working but no Service 4wd light

    Don't have onstar, and it shifts to 4L but doesn't move the front wheels, Haven't tried neutral, how would I know if the truck is in neutral?

    4WD not working but no Service 4wd light

    With the recent snowstorm we had I wanted to take my Tahoe out in the snow, first time with 4wd in weather like this. I started the truck, and put it into 4hi after I cleaned the snow off. However, there was no clunk or noise like it usually makes when switching to 4wd. And lo and behold, rear...

    Maintenance to do after picking up your "new" truck

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    That makes sense, what grit sandpaper would you recommend using to clean up the surface? It's supposed to be warm this Wednesday so I was going to drain the coolant again and pull the thermostat to clean everything up.

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    I've noticed that it really only leaks right after I drive, the truck sat for 3 days since Christmas Eve up until now and it hasn't leaked then. But today after driving to work it leaked a puddle in the lot once again.

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    Well it's not overheating at all, so I don't think there's any air in the system, I'm going to try to remove the thermostat on the next warm day I have and see if I need to sand the surface a little better, might put a little gasket maker around there for good measure. Just hoping it isn't the...

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    It hasn't overheated at all. And I couldn't tell because I noticed roughly 3-4 hours after it happened. I was at work so didn't have time to pop the hood and look.

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    It rained overnight so hard to tell if coolant is leaking now since the pavement is wet, going to go off of the reservoir for now. Although it doesn't seem like it leaked at all last night, coolant levels were the same. If it is leaking it definitely had to have slowed down.

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    Is the o-ring where the housing mates to the water pump? or where the thermostat goes into the housing? I have seen some posts saying there's an updated housing that doesn't have a space for an o-ring.

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    The thermostat did have a gasket, however I didn't add anything on, will definitely have to try that out, might pull the thermostat next and put some sealant on the edges where it meets the block. It's weird because the leak didn't start until 4 days after I did the thermostat, and it was...

    Coolant Leak after changing Thermostat?

    I recently changed the thermostat in my 02 Tahoe, and now a couple days later, I noticed the truck appeared to have leaked a decent amount of coolant while I was working, over a span of about 3 hours. After it had been driven on the highway for about 20 minutes. Is it possible that the coolant...

    How much fuel do you take?

    It'll show full after the gas pump cuts off. I might do that soon to see how much the truck will take.

    How much fuel do you take?

    I looked online and google says I've got a 26 gallon tank in my 02 Tahoe, however the pump says otherwise, after driving roughly 180 miles, using 3/4 of a tank, my tahoe only took 14 gallons. Which is pretty far off from what it should have taken. So how much gas do you guys usually take to fill up?

    What are these?

    What about the black one? Is that also just a temperature sensor?

    What are these?

    Both of them are? Will have to check in the daylight

    What are these?

    I was looking for the coolant drain plug on my radiator, and found two sensors or something that are unplugged under the truck. Attached are the pictures of each one, black one was on the passenger side and the other was towards the driver side.

    Rear Diff Cover Bolts?

    Anyone know offhand where I could get the rear diff cover bolts? Going to change the rusty cover soon, I figure the bolts should probably be changed out as well. Besides the dealer, where could I get them quick? Amazon?

    ZW7 Premium Smooth Ride

    Gotcha, I am planning on lifting with Z71 springs and keys for now, I saw some info saying the nivomat springs are the same as Z71? or is that not true?

    ZW7 Premium Smooth Ride

    So if you have the ZW7 option and you want to alter suspension, you'd have to change out the shocks and springs completely or the spring rates will mess up any shocks that aren't the nivomat ones?
