Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. 2004 4WD 1500 Suburban with 36K miles and you could hear "clicking" noise--similar to the days when rocks used to get into wheel covers. First noticed noise about 2 weeks ago. Took vehicle to the dealer and was told the "inspection" plug, not the drain or fill plug was missing and all the fluid had been ejected. Local Chevy Service Manager said it would take about "2-3 weeks" for the transfer case fluid to be ejected. Last time the oil was changed and vehicle inspected, not by Chevy, but by our mechanic was 8 August 06. SUV was driven 3K miles since then and since we change oil every 3K miles, it was going in for the service until we had this problem. We have an Extended Warranty, however; the local dealer said that since the plug was missing, it wouldn't be covered. Cost will be around $2K. My problem is it has taken over 60 days since last maintenance (8 Aug) for this issue to arise. Adding to our dilemma is the Service Manager's statement that in 2-3 weeks w/o the plug the fluid would be gone. We had NO fluid leaks on the garage floor. Something doesn't add up? Just wondering if anyone else experienced this issue? Thanks in Advance Norm |

When it rains, car wash, or now that it's cold I am having lock issues. I had it into the dealer for 2 days and they were able to duplicate the problem but could not fix it. When the car is placed in Park, all of my locks are supposed to open. However, the only one that opens is the driver’s side door. I have to manually open the front and rear passenger doors. My rear hatch does not have a manual opening from the inside and no key hole to open it from the outside. The only way the rear hatch can be opened is electronically, which is not working. Do you think that there is a short after the drivers lock and before the next lock?

I have a 2002 Suburban with some kind of electrical issue. I believe that it started happening after I had it in to the dealership for service on the window or for the intermediate staft replacement, but did not realize it at the time. Every time I use something electrical in the car (lock button, seat adjustment, window button, etc.) the lights on the dash dim for a second and the voltage meter twitches to the left. While driving home from North Carolina at night on the freeway, the headlights constantly flickered and the voltage gauge did the same thing while driving and not touching any electrical switches. It did that for a while and then stopped. It seems to happen intermittently. Any ideas on where to start to look for a problem?
