    06 Tahoe Terrible Oil Leak

    Thank you for the replies. I forgot to update but I replaced the oil pressure sensor, and threw in a bottle of “blue devil rear main stop-leak” and my oil leak has basically gone away. It’s been over 2 weeks and I haven’t had to add any oil, probably driven close to 1000 miles. The sensor was...

    06 Tahoe Terrible Oil Leak

    There’s oil literally everywhere it’s hard to tell from under. 2 notable things: Cylinder 7 spark plug wire has oil all around it, but this is on the side where I replaced the valve cover years ago. See pic My oil pressure sensor does not work, and there is a good deal of oil around it. Is...

    06 Tahoe Terrible Oil Leak

    I should’ve mentioned this, but I replaced the oil pan gasket a little over a year ago, and one of the valve covers probably 3 years ago.

    06 Tahoe Terrible Oil Leak

    My 06 Tahoe has been leaking oil for years but over the past 2 weeks it has gotten substantially worse. Before, I could go weeks or months without having to add oil, but now it is terrible. It’s leaking onto the exhaust somewhere and I can smell the oil burning. It covered the safety chains on...

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    For me, it does not make the noise every time I drive it. I drive on the highway every day (70mph+). Today, I drove 90 miles and did not hear a single noise. On Thursday, I drove 3 hours (200 miles give or take) and did not hear the noise until I stopped, then started my car again about 2 hours...

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Originally I thought it wasn't impacted by speed, but it definitely is. My noise is basically exactly described as "Filterless"

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    For me, I can hear it and feel it. It's definitely coming from under my feet or in the front end.

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Does yours do it every time you drive it? I haven't heard a peep in the last 150 miles or so. I'm starting to think it's either transfer case or front diff related. I was reading up about the possible "service 4wd" fixes and there's a few things im going to try and do and see if that helps...

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    It's definitely either coming from underneath or somewhere on the driver's side front end. I haven't heard the noise in 2 days which is frustrating because when I need to drive it for a longer distance it starts acting up. My splash shields have been removed. Could a bad tire belt actually...

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Thanks for the replies, I would say that changing speed does change the pitch of the noise. At highway speed, it is more of a loud thump/whack. At slower speeds, it is more of a drawn-out thwack with a bit of a metallic noise if that makes sense. the noise is not effected by giving it gas, it...

    Bad popping/thumping noise from front end, 2006 Tahoe

    Hello, I have a 2006 tahoe that is making an odd noise from the front end. It sounds like a bad popping or thumping noise. I notice it the most at highway speeds but it does not make the noise every time I drive it. Turning does not seem to affect the frequency of the noise. I have replaced...
