    2007 Won't start. Where to look?

    My '07 won't start. I have reason to believe that it's not the two year old battery. Headlights, horn, radio, fuel pump, etc. all work fine. It has sat for about 2 weeks without starting. Turning the key produces nothing, no clicking, nothing at all. Is there a starter relay or something...

    XM Radio Rip Off

    I just dropped my XM subscription after 3 years. The CR tried to get me for 5 months for $4.99/mo., but I wasn't interested in that short of a plan. I wish they'd list a rate, and stick with it. If they weren't offering these cheap "customer retention" rates, and just offer one flat take or...

    Battery question 07 yukon Xl

    #07033 is the service bulletin. The OEM battery is crap IMO. What really kills them as well as any flooded cell battery is the run down problem. Once you totally discharge a starting battery a few times, you drastically shorten its operational life. A 34/78 Yellow Top has a reserve capacity...

    Should I replace the battery?

    If the reflash has been done, any dealer worth his salt will put a little white and black plastic sticker under the hood, up front and on the left side. The sticker should have on it the date it was reflashed, and the TSB number "07033" True. But keep in mind that the in the Accessory...

    I think i am royally SCREWED!!!!!!!!!

    Sounds like 2 separate problems. Make sure it's tranny fluid and not transfer case fluid. I had a little incident with a cracked transfer case housing cover. Also, check the wiring harness by the emergency brake arm. The arm mayrub against the large bundle, and abrade the wire insulation...

    Should I replace the battery?

    The TSB you want to reference(at least for the 07's) is 07033. This reflashes the BCM. If the dealership you go to never heard of a reflash, then you need to go to another dealer. When you exit the vehicle, the BCM keeps much of the electrical system active for a period of 10 minutes. This...

    sunroof leaking?

    Sunroofs leak. Mine does too. The gasket around the opening is really there for wind noise, and to reduce the volume of water coming in to a managable rate. There are troughs under the drip line to channel the water down and out of the interior. If you check the troughs on a rainy day, you'll...

    Extra battery or Replace Battery (need help)

    I agree with most of what you said, except for this one. My Ram Turbodiesel (with the OEM electrical system) uses 2 batteries wired in parallel. The toaster element-like grid heaters pull 180 amps at pre-start to heat the imcoming air wihen you crank. That's over 2000 watts, and more than a...

    Hourmeter Reset!!??

    Mine's been reset twice; each time during a BCM reflash. I was told the hours can be entered manually if someone knows what they were prior to the reflash.

    HAD OIL CHANGED / now dash reads low engine oil

    It's a 6 quart oil pan, but I don't think a quart down won't make the low oil light come on. I do 9000 miles between drains, and the volume of old oil will typically not come close to filling a 5 quart container....and that includes the what I can get out of the old filter too. Why not pull...

    Dual battery system for '07 Yukon?

    I did a dual battery project back in April, and before this site existed. I placed it here: http://www.chevroletforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22289 Basically, it uses a Hellroaring battery isolator, and a Yellow Top battery. I got all of the wiring, and fuse holders at my local stereo...

    bose amp to Premium Amp Question

    There are 3 amps used in the GMT900 SUV platform. The one in the Yukon and Escalade is a completely different animal than the one used in the Tahoe. The 3 are not interchangeable in any way, shape or form. The Yukon and Escalade amps look the same, but that's where it ends. BTW, Active Noise...

    Oil Change

    I get about 9,500 miles before my oil life is down to 10%. I use Mobil 1 Truck and SUV (actually relabeled Mobil 1 Delvac), and squeeze every mile I can out of it. My '07 has about 59,000 miles on her.

    Cash for Clunkers, what a Joke

    As I understand from a dealship parts guy, the engine and transmission are the only items that cannot be reused. Sheet metal and interiors are reusable. Engines are drained of oil, a sand slurry is poured into the crankcase and the engine is started and allowed to run until it seizes. Game...

    Ethanol

    My 2007 is a flex fuel model and like I said, I saw 1-2 MPG less while running it. The lower milesage is all about energy per gallon: Gasoline: 114,000 BTU/gallon E85: 81,800 BTU/gallon Diesel: 129,500 BTU/gallon Mmmmm....diesel.......

    Folding mirrors

    I'm pretty sure this was the subject of a service bulletin. I know lots of people were complaining about that with the '07. I've had lots of wierd stuff with my 07, but fortunately that wasn't one of them.

    Ethanol

    I found a few E85 stations in the Dayton, OH area. At the time, it was $.50 cheaper than gasoline. I tried it, and got about 1-2 highway miles less per gallon during out trip back home. Still, I'd rather give my money to our farmers if the ethanol is really coming from US agriculture.

    :imo: I like lowered trucks. I have a dropped 1989 C1500. But the move to the outrageously large diameter wheels left me in the dust. Sorry Chief, but I don't get it. :sorrysign:
