Ok I just wanted to update this thread about my Tahoe. I had it repaired. Turns out it was NOT the camshaft. Camshaft was absolutely fine. It was a broken valve spring. I had been driving it awhile like that and it never got any worse. Also had a couple bad lifters. Replaced lifters and oil pump...
Ok I found out that it’s the camshaft making noise. It’s also losing oil pressure so I just parked it. Don’t know what to do at this point. It will sit awhile I guess. I got a 2008 Impala SS I been driving.
Oil changed regularly every 3-4000 miles with synthetic oil at the dealer every time. Truck runs damn good though. It has good power and no check engine light.
I was wondering how you knew all that info...lol. I’m in Gulfport. But the trans only has about 100k on it since it was replaced by the dealer. I have to look at the paperwork. I guess the only upside to that price of 500 is I don’t have to directly pay anybody to pull it out. Should I dismantle...
Yeah I believe parting out the motor would bring more money. Should I have it pulled first? My plan is to upgrade to the 6.2? Should I keep some of the parts or just sell them all and buy a motor with everything already on it?
Yes oil pump was changed 9 months after the lifters were done. Not sure on if they used the updated lifters or not. I did have a guy offer me $500 for the motor and transmission but I think that’s to low.
Got a 2007 Tahoe 5.3 that started this tapping/rattle noise. It started all of a sudden. It runs fine and it’s not missing and it hasn’t lost any power. I took the belt off because it sounded like a bad pulley but the noise continued with the belt removed. Not sure what it is. Motor has 260k on...
My 2007 Tahoe LTZ still runs great but the mileage(260k) is getting up there and I wanna upgrade to either a 6.0 or 6.2 and upgrade tranny to either 4l80e or 6l80e. What do you guys think the drivetrain is worth? Engine had new lifters and oil pump put on about 100k ago. Still burns oil with AFM...
Well I’m not gonna be able to get the Tahoe. The bank won’t finance anything with over 150k. This one has 168k. So no go for me. Thanks for everything guys.
Thanks for all the comments so far. So here’s my issue. I have an 07 Tahoe LTZ that has everything the 09 has truck has minus the 6.2 liter and blind side alert. It needs a lot of work. I think rear end is going out. All shocks are bad. It has 250k on it. Trans (4 speed) only about 70k. Original...
So I was looking for another Tahoe and I happen to find a 2009 Tahoe Black with the 6.2. It has 168k on it. It’s 4x4 and in excellent shape. It has the weathertech floor mats in it with the tan interior. They’re asking $12,500 What do you guys think?
I have a diablosport tuner where I have turned off the afm crap. Just replaced the faded headlights. I just replaced the rotors and pads in the front so I will see how they do. I really just want it to run good. I bought it used and had to have lifters put in it. She's ok for right now just...
