#115 of 184 Re: Tahoe starting problems. [papermouth] by time Jan 07, 2005 (9:34 pm)
Replying to: papermouth (Oct 21, 2003 5:53 pm) Hi papermouth. It has been since oct. since you listed your problem. Yes, I have had it also. To make a short story, the problem was a anti-theft board (listed in you manual) costs were about $300.00 to run the test and have the tech change the circuit. Time

Replying to: fish8 (Jan 07, 2005 7:40 am) It was raining pretty hard and I was on a country road, the back tires hydroplaned. Replies to this message: jay_24 (Jan 31, 2005 9:18 am) mtbon (Feb 01, 2005 7:48 am)

Replying to: tamicrash (Jan 29, 2005 12:41 pm) Rear wheel drive many times causes the rear end to spin around when it looses traction. Any RWD car or truck would likely do the same or similar thing. Solution? slow down. Its pretty much like driving on snow or ice.

Replying to: tamicrash (Jan 29, 2005 12:41 pm) You are not the only person I have heard of that has had trouble with a Tahoe in the rain. What year, miles, speed and tires did you have? I know of 2 others that have rolled their Tahoes in the past year or so. It seems that once these vehicles lose control, there is no getting it back and a rollover is imminent. Fortunately you are alive and in 1 piece. All those safety items failing is a definite concern.

Replying to: tamicrash (Jan 01, 2005 3:17 pm) The steering wheel and dashboard airbags are only designed to deploy during a frontal or near frontal impact. They are not designed to deploy during a side or rear impact, or during a rollover. Onstar is activated when the airbags deploy. Since your airbags did not deploy,, Onstar was not activated. Sounds like everything worked properly. Your owner's manual explains these issues in greater detail. Thank goodness you were not seriously hurt.
#120 of 184 Intermediate Steering Shaft by amutrie Feb 18, 2005 (9:34 am)
At 25,000 miles we just put in the second intermediate steering shaft on our 2002 Tahoe. Felt the bumping, grinding, loose feeling as going around corners. Warranty expires in August. Don't know what to expect in future. Will this problem reoccur every 10,000 miles for as long as we have the car? Could it also be an EVO sensor? Any other suggestions to cure it permanently? How much should the intermediate steering shaft repair cost (when the car is not under warranty)? Thanks in advance.
#121 of 184 Help w/Garage Opener Feature - Tahoe by southerninvite Feb 28, 2005 (6:45 am)
Hey there,   Was wondering if anyone could help me program my garage door opener on my 1999 Tahoe. I used a friend's manual (Ford F-150) because our buttons look the same, but mine didn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Suzanne

Replying to: tamicrash (Jan 01, 2005 3:17 pm) well I recoved from a loss of control on a black ICE covered bridge, I was in 2 wheel drive about 65mph everything looked fine just some blowing snow here and there, back of the truck starts to come around and I hear the engine rev, I quickly hit the 4 wheel drive button and give it some gas fight the over correction a few times and pull out I was sweating bullets. and left it in autotrac the rest of the 400 mile trip. so I almost lost my Z71 Tahoe Replies to this message: rbrownsb (Mar 14, 2005 2:34 pm)

Replying to: jefe3 (Dec 29, 2004 9:10 pm) I also have a 2003 Tahoe with the same complaint, unfortunately it is outside of the service warranty. I was hoping that Chevrolet would pay for this problem since obviously it's not just me. I know they was something wrong when the dealer told me the part was on back order.

#124 of 184 Hypertech Power CommanderIII by hdrider9065 Mar 11, 2005 (1:56 pm)
I own a '03 Chevy Tahoe Z71. With the rising cost of fuel, has anybody tried one of these programer's. I work with a gentleman that used one on a '01 F350 4x4 and increased is fuel mileage dramatically. He said that he was getting close to 28mpg. I realize that there is a difference from diesel and gasoline motors, but I previously owned a '00 F350 2X4 and on a good day got 15mpg. (Both F350's were 7.3L diesels)   I just want to know if anybody has tried one on theirs and recieved similar results or not. If I could bump my mpg to at least 22-23mpg, I think that it would be worth the intial investment of + - $350   Thanks, James
