GM vehicles used to have option that let you listen to radio even with ignition key is out as long as you still in the vehicle. Now if you are out of the vehicle, everything should shut down gradually after some minutes to save battery. If the DVD keeps on spinning all the time, the longevity of the battery will be affected. jt |

Replying to: tdoh (Jun 13, 2006 10:36 am) Back to the Tahoe 15/21mpg 320hp 340ft-lbs Other 4x4 with standard engines Toyota Sequoia 15/17mpg 273hp 314 ft-lbs Nissan Armada 13/18mpg 305hp 385 ft-lbs Ford Expedition 14/18mpg 300hp 365 ft-lbs The Sequoia's tow rating is 2000lbs lighter than all the others. I'd give up the 30ish ft-lbs of torque for the extra 3 or 4 mpg. If you need your exra HP and torque well the Denali should do it then...13/19mpg and 380hp 417 ft-lbs. Highway mpg still better than the competition. |

| Has anyone experienced a situation where their 2003 (or other similar year/mileage) Yukon had the front differential need to be replaced, along with the front wheel bearings at 85,000 mi? This just recently took us by surprise after buying it used with no known defects and a clean maintenance record (corporate fleet). The dealer tells us that we need to replace the diff. and at least one wheel bearing....$2100!.....This isn't an AWD Yukon, just 4 WD on demand. Any thoughts? Any cheaper solutions? Any warranty? Would love to hear some ideas and comments. | |

I noticed today that, I think just when the lights are on and the interior is illuminated, that the knob to switch between 2WD, Auto and 4WD was really hot. Anyone notice this? Loving my Tahoe. 550 miles and it's great. Getting just over 16 MPG in mixed driving. I know that'll improve a little more.

| I have a new 2007 tahoe..lease. I'm very disappointed. I have been to the dealer 5 times and tomorrow will be my 6th time in there. Car radio shuts off..on-star stops working, the a/c stops working???? Air bags not on...safety..gone down the drain. I'm just simply disappointed. | |

I love my new Tahoe. I have just under 1000 miles on it and, knock on wood, I haven't had any problems. I do, however, have a fine black dust that accumulates on the rear lift gate after driving it only a short distance. My Tahoe is white and it is really noticeable. It only covers the back lift gate/window, no where else on the vehicle. I don't know if it's exhaust or tire dust (if there is such a thing) or what. My other Tahoes never had this problem. If your car is any other color, it may not show up. It's discouraging to wash it and have it looking great and then drive for a few minutes and have the back looking dirty. Any ideas as to what this is or if it happens on anyone else's besides mine? On another note, I love that Chevy enclosed the wheel wells with the black plastic. They are so easily washed and kept spotlessly clean. This may seem funny, but it's something I totally appreciate and have never seen before.
