I changed the front shocks.
I noticed a chafe on the front pass. shock where it was rubbing on something (control arm).I also soaked every bushing, shock mount with silicone spray and greased all fittings.

ARE THROTTLE POSITION SENSORS HARD TO REPLACE? COULD THIS ALSO BE CAUSING MY JIMMY TO STALL? WOULD THIS PROBLEM ALSO MAKE MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT TO BE ON? WE'VE TRIED A NEW GAS CAP , BUT THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT GO OFF.

something loose by dumcrief

My 1999 Jimmy has a intermittent loud noise coming from the front passenger seat front lower door, floor area. Pulled the panel off the door, see nothing. It sounds like a loose bolt hanging from a string knocking against the plastic panel. Any help out there ?

Found the source of the noise....The plastic door panel was "crinkling" along the bottom of the passenger door with the movement of the vehicle. Canadian cure, jam a couple of golf tees between the panel and the metal door. Problem solved. Thanks to all.

2000 Jimmy high pitch squeal by dan_marois

Thanks in advance to anyone for help. I have lots of details, i let a brake job go for quite a while was finishing school no cash etc. When i took the rotors and pads off they were the worst ive ever seen rust everywhere. So new rotors and pads, the brakes work great. However 2 problems. When I veer left there is a noise as if something is rubbing on and off almost as if taking a wire bruch and gently sliding it on metal over and over again. This only happens when your moving not if making a direct left turn from a stop. The next problem is that randomly while dricing straight you will hear a high pitch squeal for a second on and off when you touch the breaks very gently while the noise is happening it will go away. I have no ideas again any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks to anyone who can help!

grating noise when reversing/accelerating by diehard1967

Hubby got into a crash in my 2000 GMC Jimmy, (grrrh). Anyway we took it to the GMC dealer and they fixed all the body damage, but since the accident it sounds rough, it has had all it's regular scheduled maintenance done at the dealers and was in perfect condition before the crash. We would not sign the release form to say we were satisfied with their work, they did diagnostics on it and found nothing, but does anyone know what it could be? I know the sound of my vehicle and it sounds rough now, especially when reversing and initially accelerating. Thanks for any/all help. It's a 4x4 with 154,000 on the odometer

Werid Squeaking Noise at Low Speed by trackmastaflex

Hi all, I'm trying to diagnose a weird noise that my 1997 GMC Jimmy w/ 90K miles is making and would appreciate input.
 
My car makes a cyclic squeaking noise similar to high pitch metallic scraping noise (I'm not sure yet if it's metallic scraping) at low speed below 15mph. The noise is there during acceleration/deceleration/coasting while the car is in gear. The noise is only made while the car is in Drive. The noise instantly goes away when I shift my car from Drive to Neutral which leads me to believe it's somekind of drivetrain/transmission issue. The noise completely goes away at speeds above 15mph.
 
I usually do most of my own work on my cars but this one has me pretty stumped. Help is appreciated.
