#124 of 223 Flapping or Ratcheting Sound in '02 Escalade upon acceleration by texsal94 May 23, 2007 (8:42 pm)
I have an '02 Escalade with 110k miles. This problem started, however, back when I only had 50k miles (and under warranty). After stopping, I accelerate and hear a very LOUD "flapping" or "ratcheting" sound from the engine/transmission. It sounds like the flapping noise from a diesel semi-truck. I have brought it in at least 6-8 TIMES to the dealership. Everytime I get it back, they claim they "could not replicate the problem". I feel like they did hear it, but was a major problem they didn't want to deal with since it was still under warranty. Now, I'm left with the same embarrassing problem and no warranty. Anyone have any suggestions? BTW, I owned a 1988 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais that made the SAME noise..it was transmission-related. Replies to this message: nvbanker (May 25, 2007 4:37 pm)

Replying to: texsal94 (May 23, 2007 8:42 pm) It's probably a CV joint somewhere, going out. I have found the best way to get a mechanic to "replicate" the problem, is to make them take a drive with me and demonstrate it. Once they admit they hear it, they seem to be able to deal with it. Sometimes, I take the Service Manager with me..... It sure helps.

Is there a free website where you can see Escalade TSB's? Replies to this message: steve_ (Jun 27, 2007 4:59 pm)
#127 of 223 DTC code P0452 by jdodrill Jun 27, 2007 (3:04 pm)
I have a 1999 Cadillac Escalade with DTC Error Code P0452. This is described as Evaporative Emission System Pressure Sensor/Switch Low Input. How do I "fix" the problem. I recently had the fuel pump replaced, before the "check engine" light came on. On a recent trip when I opened the gas cap to fill, it appeared to be under a vacuum. I saw where someone recommended to replace the gas cap, what other items should I check and how?

Replying to: mil6753 (Jun 26, 2007 10:43 am) The Edmunds Maintenance Guide has summary TSB info (sometimes the NHTSA has full text, but not too often).   If you find one in the summary list you want to read, sometimes the service writers will copy them for you to take home.

Just bought 05 ext which has about 1000k left on original gm warranty. Has anyone had problems that are common on any 05's that I should look for. Rides real nice on michelin LX tires so far only foglamps allowing water in.
