Was driving to work and I heard a loud pop from the driver side rear window when I went to roll it up. Window was stuck an inch down. Replaced the window motor and actuator. Did it myself, after watching some videos online. Took me 2 hours but I was going slow. Window works again. Used Dorman...
Ended up taking the roof rack off the Tahoe yesterday and the rusted worse than I was expecting. I took off the passenger side too and there was no rust on that side. Only area there was rust was the driver side front.
I sanded out the rust. Filled in the thin areas with JB Weld. Primer, and...
Detailed the Tahoe the other day and noticed some rust and paint bubbling on the roof near where the screws go in to the roof for the roof rack. It’s only on the driver side front roof rack. This has been a California car so I am not well versed on dealing with rust. Is this something I should...
My Sonar LED tail lights started going out after 12 years. Bought Dorman factory stock 2004-2006 tail light housings and installed them on my Tahoe. Used LED 3157 bulbs for the turn, reverse, and brake lights. Really happy with how they turned out.
Found a 63 inch cargo cover on Facebook Marketplace for $80. In perfect condition and works perfectly. It’s a shade darker gray than my interior but I’m so happy. These shorter Tahoe cargo covers are hard to find and usually a lot more money. The longer 66 inch model for Suburban and Yukon XL...
Seat was working fine recently. I noticed the driver side seat stopped working. The heating function on the driver seat stopped working too. The bolster and lumbar does work. If I press 1 or 2 on the programmed seats nothing happens. Passenger side everything works.
Anything I can check?
I figured this out. The Sylvania ZEVO 194 led bulbs are polarity sensitive. That’s why they worked in every case but during the day when the turn signal is on.
I returned them and have non-polarity led bulbs coming tomorrow. That should fix the issue.
I stumbled on this thread and it helped...
Changed out the front DRL (4114), front turn signal (4157A), and front side marker lights (194) to the Sylvania ZEVO LED on my 2001 Tahoe. Installed an EP29 flasher to get rid of the hyper flash while I was at it too.
Everything works correctly but when my headlights and parking lights are off...
Well I could do it for $150 if I want to use Chinese glass which I don’t want to do. Ended up having the chip filled as there is a National backorder on Tahoe windshields. Called 5 glass shops in two states and they all laughed and said the same thing….National backorder.
Debating getting the chip filled for $70 or a whole new windshield (not factory glass because it’s not made anymore) for $295 installed. Your thoughts?
I’ve had my Tahoe in Arizona for 5 days now and just got this nice rock chip today. Right where I look out the windshield. Ugh! Lol. 20 year old Tahoe, 210,000 miles, factory glass. And they don’t make factory glass for the Tahoe anymore.
For those of you that don’t know, Arizona has a lot of...
After the minor work I did on the Tahoe in this post I took it on a 800 mile trip. Ran like a dream! I did notice when I got out of the Tahoe with it still running that the fuel pump was making a very loud whining noise. Fuel was at half and the outdoor temp was 110 degrees. Fuel pump going out?
Clean the oil off everywhere that you can. Replace just the oil pan gasket and the other items like the pick-up tube o-ring when you drop the pan. When it's simply the pan gasket and I save you a huge headache you can thank me later. haha ;)
I felt so dumb when my Tahoe was leaking oil and I...
Years ago I had this issue on my 5.3 2001 Tahoe. Couldn’t tell where the oil was coming from but it was a lot. Took it to one of the best shops in Orange County and they insisted it was the rear main seal. I told them to start with the oil pan gasket but nope they said rear mail seal. So I spent...
Can anyone tell me the difference between the front brake kit by PowerStop KC2069 and KC5519? 5519 is the Police version and $50 more for the kit but the pics on PowerStop look the same.
Yes, correct. Years ago I had a major service done on my Tahoe by having the rear main seal and oil pan gasket replaced. When I got the truck back that little piece of metal was missing. It always bothered me and I saw the GM part was on Amazon for $8 so I picked one up.
Long time no talk guys, it’s been a few years. My 2001 Tahoe has been sitting in my dads warehouse for a few years. My dad would take it once a month to get lunch but besides that it has sat for a couple of years.
Anyways I went and picked up the Tahoe, and did the following. Been driving it...
