Are you sure it's the transmission? My '02 Denali makes a sort of low-pitched buzzing/humming sound that occurs intermittently at low rpms, only after the truck has warmed up. I think it's either a heat shield or a baffle in one of the mufflers. I had our service manager test drive it with me and he agreed.
 
I can get it to do it pretty consistently if I drive the truck long enough to warm up, then put it in drive, hold the brake and accelerate to about 1500rpm or so. More of a nuisance than anything,and something for which I originally made plans to have fixed, but I've decided just to wait 'til my next scheduled service.

I have a 2003 denali and I get the same clunk. It is the same engine and transmission. It is because the gear goes into 1st too eatly and you feel the hard downshift. They need to adjust the shift point for this car. I have called but they won't listen!!
 
good luck

2002 front suspension noise by pescado2

I have an early 2002 Escalade 2wd with a noisy front end. Purchased new in August 2001, my vehicle is used as my wifes station wagon. It has never seen hard or off-road use, yet I get a clunk from the front end at low speed maneuvering. I have taken it to the dealership three times for this. Sounds like its in the left front suspension. Column has been tightened, suspension has been lubed and retorqued, steering column support e7638 has also been replaced...any one else with this problem?

Please, if anyone has had or heard of this problem contact me immediately, RozUpchurchaol.com
 
The heated seat inside my BRAND NEW 2003 Escalade caught on fire as I was driving. The fire department said that it had to have been smoldering for many days!
I also noticed that the drivers heated seat is unusually hot. I am afraid to put my toddlers back in the car, repaired or not.

PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM by espinoza30
May 03, 2003 (7:39 am)
Reply
Hello, I have a 2002 escalade with about 16000, and the parking brake is out. I was told it needed rear shoes. I am a master technician with infiniti, have been a technician for 14 years. I had never heard of a parking brake go out so soon,(unless it was left on while driving). I declined to have the work done and I am seeing if anyone has had the same problem. I would like to see if there is a problem with these shoes, and fight warranty.

Steering noises by briles

I have a 2003 Escalade. Been in shop 3 times for noises underneath during turning. Now makes noise inside at steering column. Dealer said some models were not lubed properly. They re-did and it helped for a week, makes noise again. also, steering wheel does not rotate back after a turn, it stays. Dealer said they all do that and nothing they can do. Very dangerous when making steering maneuvers. We are reviewing lemon law.

DVD Navigation clock missing by erosenbrg
Jul 11, 2003 (2:41 pm)
Reply
When my wife and I test drove the 2003 Cadillac Escalade, the DVD Navigation System had a clock in the lower right-hand corner of the screen. Yet once we took delivery, the clock had disappeared! Despite reading and re-reading the manual, calling the dealer, and trying to find online tech support, we have not been able to restore this clock! Since the Bulgari clock absolutely sucks, we really would like this clock to show up again! Has anyone had this problem and found a solution?? THANKS FOR ANY HELP! Send any advice to ERosenb510aol.com
