| I have a '07 Tahoe LTZ. I just checked my mirrors and they both have black plastic material around them. The driver side mirror is about 1/4" but the passenger side mirror is about 1/8" ?? | |

Our 2007 Yukon XL, with 55k miles, now requires about 5 seconds of engine cranking before it starts. Normally it takes barely a second of cranking for the engine to start. It runs fine once started, and the problem began with this tank of gas (I made sure the gas cap was tight). If I start it, shut it off, then immediately restart it, it starts instantly again. I do not smell any gas, but maybe it is losing pressure? I also tried turning the key on, give the fuel pump 5 seconds to pressurize the system, but it still takes 5 seconds of cranking to start. Help. Thanks.

What a difference a few months makes. gas is $4 a gallon. YIKES. Thanks world economy. WE NEED TO DRILL FOR OIL. Please call our fat congressmen and women. Sorry, just venting. Has anyone figured out how to make the cylinder deactivation less sensitive? Does anyone know of any aftermarket chips/modules that can keep the Tahoe in 4 cyl mode on highway driving? I still get 19-20 mpg going 73 on the hwy. If there is wind in front or side, forget it, it goes down to 16-17 mpg.

Replying to: eximportguy (Jun 08, 2008 11:32 am) I just did a 100 mile trip yesterday from Masschusetts to Maine ( consider the hills on the highway as well). From the moment I went on the highway I set my Economy Reader to "0", my MPG was 23.4 once I got to my destination. Plus, I had to stop four times for traffic that lasted 5 - 8 minutes each. My best suggesting is not to use the cruise control. I drive on the middle lane 68 - 73 MPH. Also, my tires are at the right pressure. My city MPG is usally 16.5 on average. I let the vehichle drive itself and try to leave it at 45 MPG on average. My prior vehicle was a 99 Ford Explorer - 6 cyl SOHC with 15/19 MPG. I can't complain. Now, I do agree to let these liberal dudes/dudettes on getting off their pansy rear end and allow to have drilling on our soil for oil. IT IS CLEANER...than it was 30 yrs ago AND, the technology today zeros in on one - 5 drilling hoes for oil stikes vs 30 -40 30 years ago. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!! ......Liberals Just Don't Get It !! and NEVER will ! Drill here, Drill Now and Pay Less !!!! |

A reporter would like to talk to mothers who use a large SUV to transport children but are now considering a smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicle as a result of high gas prices. Please respond to jwahl Thanks, Jonathan Wahl Corporate Communications Edmunds Inc. |

I recently had a flat tire that was repaired. When I got the car back the TPM indicated that the system needed to be reset. In checking the owners manual, there is a very specific set of instructions to follow in order for the system to relearn the sensors. I have tried to reset the system several times by either increasing or decreasing pressure in the tires. I followed the manual instructions exactly, and have not been able to get all 4 sensors set at the same time. Does anyone know if there is a trick to resetting this system, or am I going to be stuck taking this back to the dealer and paying to have them do it. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks
