The part numbers I listed look good? Either way, I already ordered them and will know shortly :)
I'm assuming all the oil has to be drained first correct?
I would agree with this, but why would it only hang during the first start of the day and not the rest?
Hi kbuskill, yes its a custom tune due to fuel availability where I am at (weird I know). Was the 91 canned tune a big diff over the 87?
I will give this a go.
I also tried to prime the...
Hey guys, thank you for all the suggestions so far.
Here is a video that better shows what is going on, note the slight hang at 500rpms when turning it over (sorry weird link not sure why, it links to youtube)...
Hey guys,
Recently I've been experiencing a weird starting problem in my 2011 Tahoe. When turning the vehicle over it cranks like there is no problems, but the second before the engine fires, there is a short hesitation/pause and then it starts right up.
Initially I thought the battery may...
Hello tahoeyukonforum!
Quick question before I replace the trans cooler lines (passenger side) and the oil cooler lines (drivers side). Do I need to drain the trans & oil completely before doing this? I assume it will be leaking from the attachment points on the engine block side right?
Is...
Hey guys!
Popped the hood today and noticed a few lines seeping. I just want to double check with you PPV vets before I go ahead and order parts.
Correct me if I'm wrong... but the lines going into the radiator on the drivers side is for the oil cooler, and the lines going into the radiator...
From what I've found from searching, Monroe is the OEM supplier for the PPV tahoes.
If you look at your factory suspension. They are stamped "Tenneco" on the lower mount bushings. Monroe is a Tenneco brand :)
I also looked into this, but ended up getting a diablosport tuner. The range AFM module is around ~$200 and you can find a refurb tuner for not much more. And with a tuner you can do much more than just delete the AFM, you can also adjust the speedo for different rolling diameters of wheels...
I actually went this route as well. There is currently a rebate going on w/ monroe and all four corners can be replace for right around ~$210 which is almost a no brainer for me! Thank you for your input
My mileage is up there as well. I couldnt find any documentation showing if they were ever replaced. At this point I think any shock replacement, whether OEM or aftermarket is better than nothing.
Love how the larger 265/70's fit on your PPV. Seems to fill up the wheel wells much nicer. How...
Awesome. Thank you.
How do you like the belltechs? Worth the upgrade? To do the shocks at all four corners Im already looking at ~300... I dont want to change the ride height if possible, but if the ride quality is improved I could justify going the belltech route.
Hi Ron,
From my understanding, the fronts on the PPVs are the same (the tire size is what gives it its lowered appearance). However for the rear it uses a different strut / spring than the conventional models. I'm not sure on the SSV's but maybe someone can chime in.
Hello PPV'ers,
I'm looking to replace the suspension struts and shocks this winter on my 2011. Hoping to find the source of this weird vibration I'm getting, and I'm thinking the shocks / struts may be a part of it. (Already replaced the u-joints in the driveshaft, rebalanced tires, trans...
Hey guys,
Looking to just do a drain and refill on my 2011 PPV soon, as well as replacing the rear diff fluid / trans mount. I have a few quick questions:
1. I think my trans came with schaeffers ATF (what the previous dept maintained it with), should I stick with the same fluid or switch to...
Howdy PPV guys!
Do our vehicles have TPMS systems? I was under the impression that it was disabled... because when toggling through the cluster I do not see anything that shows the tire pressures.
However today while driving, I looked down on my dash and the TPMS light was on!?
It says "LEFT...
Heres the update... made an appointment. Asked them to be sure the parts would be ready before I came in, and to call me otherwise...
The day came and I brought my vehicle in. Sat there for 2 hours, then the service advisor came and told me they had no parts. Soo... I wasted half a day. Will...
Thank you for the update. I just made my appt for next week.
I dont think my dealership loves me enough to come pick me up, LOL.
How long did it take? Debating if I should take the day off work or just wait at the dealership until its done.
Hey guys,
Has anyone done this on the PPV's? Im assuming its no different than the other models of tahoes in this year range.
I cant seem to find any threads on this anywhere on the internet. Any reason why? Seems like the U-joints are readily available.
Thanks.
Hey guys,
I've been chasing this weird vibration I'm having. I've searched for possible symptoms, but it doesn't really align with anything specific. 2011 tahoe with 170k, 2wd.
I will get the tires-re balanced to rule that possibility out but I've gotten them balanced before.
Symptoms:
