#5849 of 6309 This will be my last Tahoe by dmgator Mar 04, 2006 (9:08 pm)
After having owned a 1999 and 2001 Chevy Tahoe, I will not buy another Chevy vehicle after I get rid of the current one. I have a 2001 Tahoe with only 48,000 miles and have been easy on the vehicle with all service done at the dealer. My rear brakes have squeaked and the dealer says they are fine and that is normal for metalic pads. That is ridiculous to have a part that is working squeak like that. The second thing was having to replace ABS electronic which part alone was over $900 and a total of $1,200 installed by the dealer. With pricing like that, how much are the major components like a transmission or A/C going to cost. I will not be finding out because I will be done with Chevy for good.

My 2005 Yukon's wipers seem to be making noise at 65mph and higher when they are in the parked position. Seems like they are banging against the windshield. They are the Original equipment wipers.Noise goes away of I turn the wipers on   Anyone else have this issue?   Doesn't it sound like a reason to get rid of it for a 2007? The wife didn't buy that arguement either

Replying to: dmgator (Mar 04, 2006 9:08 pm) "With pricing like that, how much are the major components like a transmission or A/C going to cost."   Much more if its a import?   A simple knock sensor for my subaru cost $260 to replace and the regular maintanence every 30K is about $550. At 90K miles I've spent $2200+ on reagular maint. and repairs (not including oil changes).   Our 2003 Tahoe is at 45k. Zero maint. costs so far other than oil changes.   Just a guess on the brakes, but due to limited miles it build up some surface rust on the disk/drum? Our previous van and current subaru squeaked or had a grinding noise when not driven often due to slight surface rust. Our Tahoe has the best brakes by far.   Try a different dealer or just a local brake specialty shop.
#5852 of 6309 windshield wipers by chattiedee Mar 06, 2006 (5:24 pm)
Wanted to know if anyone has had any problems with there wipers not working? Last summer we drove our 97 Tahoe from Idaho to Michigan and had the wipers just stop. {several times} Eventually they'd come back on, I'm still having problems with it. My husband has the same problem with his 94 Chevy pickup. We bought them used so if there was a recall on the wiper motor, we, being a second owner wouldn't know if there was or wasn't. Any info would be much appreciated. Replies to this message: jlflemmons (Mar 06, 2006 8:19 pm) zoltarp (Mar 21, 2006 10:04 am)
#5853 of 6309 AC/Heater Fan Switch by a68rs Mar 06, 2006 (6:09 pm)
I have a 2002 Tahoe LS with 33,000 miles on it. The heater fan doesn't work in the #1 & 2 settings. I tested it in another tahoe and it worked fine. Someone suggested that it could be the Blower Motor Resistor? If it is, where is it located in my Tahoe? Replies to this message: buck62003 (Aug 05, 2007 3:54 am)

Replying to: chattiedee (Mar 06, 2006 5:24 pm) It isn't the wiper motor, it is the control board. If you, or someone you know, is good with a soldering iron, the control board is mounted to the wiper motor and has a harness plugged into it. Unplug the harness, take the cover off the motor and remove the circuit board. The connector where the harness was plugged in is on the edge of the board. Check the solder connection of the connector to the board. You will most likely find the solder joints have cracked.   Using solder-wick, remove the old solder from the circuit board. Resolder using rosin core (NOT ACID CORE) solder and reassemble.   This is a very, very common problem caused by the wiring harness not being supported and the vibration being transferred to the connector causing the solder to crack.

Replying to: joemisti (Feb 27, 2006 9:54 am) I've decided to go with a hitch installed by my (wonderful) mechanic. Thanks for your comments.

Replying to: polesitter24 (Jan 10, 2006 6:18 pm) They may have a fix but they haven't told my dealer as of 2/27/06. The shaft was replaced 20,000 miles ago and the dealer rep said the "fix" isn't lasting as long as the original.

Replying to: dardson1 (Dec 25, 2005 6:52 pm) I'd love to share that info with my dealer. They lubed mine on 2/27/06. I'd appreciate any info you can provide. Replies to this message: a68rs (Mar 13, 2006 8:20 pm)
