2005 Sierra Passenger mirror by atarby

Just recently bought a used 05' Sierra. Great truck so far but one thing I need to do is replace is the passenger mirror. It has a crack in but the turn signal still functions and the motor still works for position. Obvisously the mirror is one with the turn signal built into it and I am looking for anyone to walk me through the process of replacing it?? Dealer quoted me $217 for just the mirror part, I am assuming I do not need to replace the whole mirror unit but just the glass?
 
Anybody relplaced the mirror before? Anybody know where I can get one cheaper?

Did you ever figure out how to replace it? I tried prying the back of the mirror housing out, but was afraid to push too hard. Also tried to pry the gasket off, but was afraid to break it. I already scratched it trying.

Try an autoparts store they should be able to order the mirror. If you have to replace the whole assembly the mirror is held on with 3 bolts to access them you have to remove a small triangular piece of trim on the inside of the door, then remove the foam,disconnect the wiring harness,and unbolt the mirror.

Not sure on the cost of the replacement heated/signal
mirror glass. The heated only glass is around $30 with
discount at dealer or try GM parts direct.com......
 
The crack is a common problem and dealer should fix
if under warranty................

2000 1500 with Jumping/Bouncing Oil Gauge by fiddelm3742

Well I recently purchased a used 1500 with 160k on it. It runs quite well, doesn't appear to have the common engine clanks that most have in the cold weather. However while driving, or parked I noticed that my oil guague sits at about halfway and just jumps up and down. I hadn't seen anything about this being a common issue so I thought I'd ask and see what you all thought. If worse comes to worst I'll just have to take it in and get it looked at.

Exactly how far does it jump? Are you talking about the needle or the gauge itself? When parked it jumps as the idle remains unchanged?

My 02 just started doing this and while I haven't fixed it yet, I suspect the sending unit is worn where it spends the most time. Doesn't do it when it's cold or if you rev the engine a little to get the sender to a different spot, so I suspect a new sending unit will fix it. Good luck ,Jim

Well after watching it a little more closely it appears to stable out while I accelerate, however when i sit idle it moves from about the halfway point on the gauge about a quarter of an inch. Its not a constant rise and fall it bounces up and down. So... sending unit?
