#3816 of 6387 Well... by gmalltheway Jul 07, 2003 (10:07 am)
My 2000 Tahoe came with the same tires stock, not exactly the bet tires (putting it nicely) as far as im concerned, at 12,000 miles i had to replace the tires. Also Yes we had a 1996 Tahoe and that body style 1995-1999 had terrible steering, very lose and you were always moving the wheel, however i think Chevy REALLY improved in the new body style.
#3817 of 6387 J-42598-A Vehicle Data Recorder Traps Diagnostic Trouble Codes by 03tahoe Jul 08, 2003 (5:33 am)
On another site saw that the 2002 Service Manual tells service personnel to use this VDH to locate those nasty INTERMITTENT troubles. He said the GSA price is only $418.86. Any dealer worth spit should own at least a couple of these. One wonders why this item isn`t used more, in place of telling the customer "We can`t do anything since no trouble codes are set." Have read that several owners that had their engine shut down, while doing 75 mph on major highways, were simply advised that "We can do nothing since no trouble codes are set and the truck is working as designed right now."

I also have a new 2003 Tahoe, with only 1800 miles on it, that leaks water around the driver side sunvisor during a heavy rain. The vehicle is going into the Chevy dealership this Friday, for an appointment with a leak specialist. Not a small drip, but a steady stream of water that will last for a minute or so.

Wow a steady stream, mine is just a few drops in a very heavy rain or when i occasionally use the car wash. I expect a few drops, it's not going to be completely water tight but sounds like you have a real problem.
#3820 of 6387 Radial Pull (ianshaw) by fkozil Jul 08, 2003 (8:24 am)
Radial pull is when the steel or radial belts inside the tire move or re-adjust causing a pulling condition. If the alignment specs are set properly and the new wheels from the silverado meet the specs for the truck, you may have a radial pull condition. The best way to tell is rotate the front tires to the rear. If the condition clears up, you probably have uneven radial belts causing the problem.
#3821 of 6387 #3815 Tire wear problems.. ianshaw by stakeout Jul 08, 2003 (3:01 pm)
we have two '01 Suburbans.. both developed tire wear.. cupping on the INSIDE of the front tires..   my wife's 4wd LT is as bad as it can get.. chevy has aligned it at my expense two times.. nothing out of whack... truck has 33K miles on it... terrible.. noisy from uneven wear..   I have a Z71 Subn.. changed over to 4 new tires last year.. same condition..now about same mileage..uneven wear -cupping front tires..   looks like the 4wd Suburbans are problems...I'm sure Tahoe's also.. Chevy won't do anything thru the dealer... I am about to write a letter to Chevy to try to get to arbitration with it..also make a complaint to NHTSA.. no service bulletins on it ..YET..   both trucks have had the tires rotated within prescribed Chevy mileage...   in all my years of owning 4wd trucks never had anything like this before..   I've even checked out Suburbans in parking lots.. a number of them have same-same uneven wear..   if anyone knows of any service/Tech bulletins on this please let us know..   thanx
#3822 of 6387 Auxiliary Door Lock Switch in Cargo Area by 03tahoe Jul 09, 2003 (5:36 am)
Has anyone installed this switch in a 2003 LS Tahoe? What are the part numbers and price? Is a mating wiring harness in place?
#3823 of 6387 Questions for '03 Owners Yukon or Tahoe by five0_4tluv Jul 10, 2003 (10:43 am)
1. I searched the board and could not find an answer on if you can play MP3 cd's? 2. Has anyone put 20" wheels on their SUV? Anyone have the dealer do it as part of the deal? Any suggestions on tire(s) and sizes? thanks
#3824 of 6387 Alignments by davids1 Jul 11, 2003 (5:15 am)
Don't bother with your dealer. Go to a shop that you trust that specializes in alignment type work. You don't have to pay much more, and they are much more likely to work with you when you have recurring problems.
#3825 of 6387 MP3 Cds by mfullmer Jul 11, 2003 (11:52 am)
I assume you're referencing CDs that you make at home from MP3 files on your computer.   As long as you make an audio CD from the MP3 files, it should work in any CD player. However, if you just copy the MP3 files to a data cd, it won't work on any CD player (stand-alone).
