#3133 of 3260 05 Yukon Denali XL Grinding/Metal On Metal Brake Noise by alexp98 Jul 14, 2006 (4:24 pm)
I bought a brand new '05 Yukon Denali XL and haven't had any major problems. Lately, though, I've noticed when I park my vehicle outside for several hours or more that I hear a grinding or a metal on metal sound whenever I step on the brakes. It goes away after driving for a couple of minutes. I've taken it to the dealer and they've told me that it's condensation from the hot brakes and cold air that causes that noise. At first, I accepted that reasoning, but then why has it only started recently. If it were true, then I would have heard it since the beginning. My SUV is normally garaged so I don't hear any grinding whenever I pull out and step on the brakes. It's just whenever it's parked outside on a cold night. I'm afraid it could become worse. I've driven 36K miles on it mostly highway so the brake pads are still fairly thick. I think there's 5mm on the most worn out of pads and 8mm on the other axle. Anybody else have this problem?

Replying to: alexp98 (Jul 14, 2006 4:24 pm) Have you checked to see if a coating of rust develops during the night? Replies to this message: alexp98 (Jul 14, 2006 5:01 pm)

Replying to: awf_axis (Jul 14, 2006 4:32 pm) Yes, there isn't any rust. That is the same thing the service rep asked me. A good example was about 2 weeks ago. I parked my SUV outside from 2PM until 11PM. I don't think there would have been enough time for rust to form or is that enough time for some sort of film to coat the rotors?
#3136 of 3260 Back Up Camera Constraint by 07denalitx Jul 16, 2006 (10:46 am)
I have taken delivery of an 07 Denali with NAV and no camera (I couldn't wait). Does anyone know if the wiring harness is in the liftgate so that I can simply connect the camera when it becomes available??

#3138 of 3260 2004 Yukon Denali by hiten Jul 19, 2006 (10:05 am)
Does anyone know if 04 Denali is equipped with a fuel filter? I went to a GM dealer this morning and they called me back saying that 04 denali's are not equipped with a fuel filter.   just curious if anyone came across this?
#3139 of 3260 RE: 03 YUKON AIR CONDITIONING BELT [tharris1] by bpotts1 Jul 29, 2006 (2:31 pm)
Replying to: tharris1 (Jul 09, 2006 8:48 pm) I am having the same exact problem and the mechanic I took my car to said that he has seen this exact thing (3) times in the past couple weeks but cannot fix it. I replaced by belt and tensioner but this did not work. The sound actually got worse. I am taking the car to a dealer today and we'll see what happens. This should be a recall issue if it is that common. Let me know if you find anything out. (I have an 03 Yukon 5.3L) Replies to this message: fletesriv (Sep 14, 2006 12:44 pm) bpotts1 (Sep 16, 2006 10:08 am)

Replying to: tharris1 (Jul 09, 2006 8:48 pm) I had the same trouble with my 03. I had to replace the A/C compressor. The GMC dealer paid for it because I had just purchased the vehicle 3 months ago (it would have cost around $500).   I hope your trouble is not as severe.

Replying to: tharris1 (Jul 09, 2006 8:48 pm) I also had my AC belt break off. I had to replace the AC compressor and condenser. I found the compressor refurbished online for a couple hundred bucks and with the condenser and a couple other minor parts had the entire AC system replaced for less than 500 total. Make sure that you flush out the AC lines before installing a new compressor. When my original compressor went dead, it sent metal particles throughout my AC lines and if I didn't (luckily) have it flushed prior to running the new system, it would've seized up and had to be replaced again!
#3142 of 3260 RE: 03 YUKON AIR CONDITIONING BELT [steins4] by bpotts1 Jul 31, 2006 (7:45 am)
Replying to: steins4 (Jul 31, 2006 4:00 am) I took my car to the GMC dealer and it looks like I will have to replace my compressor as well. I hear that this is a common problem. Does anyone know if this is a potential recall item or has anyone else been able to get GMC to cover this? My car is an '03 with 88,000 mi and I dont have an extended warranty. They are qutoing me between $600-$1000 to fix.
