Re: 2001 Yukon XL Popping from the front Differential [bradway] by carterchapman

Same popping noise on our 2004 Tahoe and 2005 Denali XL when turning the wheel to the stop - worse to the left than the right.
 
There is a TSB on the problem and it was fixed by the dealer on both - no further problems.
 
Also - the 2004 Tahoe had the "steering coulmn rattle" described earlier and that was fixed by a center shaft replacement.
 
All on warrenty, so I don't know the costs - sorry.

I bought my Yukon 5months ago brand new and put 22' rims on when I engage it in 4wd I hear a noise that doesn't sound good I took it in to the dealership they couldn't figure it out so they fixed something on the front differential the sound is still their so the dealership put stock tires on and the sound was gone, I don't understand why this is only happening while in 4wd with the 22" rims, it did not happen with the stock rims while engaged in 4wd, any thoughts on this?

I have heard the same sound in my '07 Denali. It is the Nav DVD. I guess it's getting reved up as soon as you unlock the vehicle. The truck is assuming you are going somewhere and wants to be ready to show you where you are.

Yukon XL 2003 "Popping Noise" when backing up by rkg1

I have noticed that my Yukon XL will occasionally make a "popping noise" when I back up (usually I hear it in the morning when I back out of my garage). It sounds like when you pop open a can of tennis balls or a can of pringles, or kicking an oil can. The first time I heard this, I thought I rode over a can, and got out to check.
 
I know someone posted about this a long time ago, but I didn't see any replies.
 
Has anyone else had this, too????
thanks!!

ABS self test?
 
Maybe the self-leveling AutoRide suspension doing something?
 
Do you hear it only when first driving it or can you hear it after running errands for a while?

Per your description, I would guess its one of the brake pad(s) that caused the sound.
To check if that is indeed the case, after you have backed your car out of your garage on to a straight and flat road:
1. put your transmission in "N" then let go the brake pedal (make sure the car is not rolling)
2. slide the shifter in to "D" from "N"
3. let your car "roll" forward (no need to give any gas) for a few feet
4. then press the brake pedal, see if you hear the same "popping" sound???
If you do, then there is a very good chance that one of the pads is sliding just a bit in the caliper. The pad that's sliding/hitting against the caliper caused the sound your heard. Hope that's all it is... Good Luck!

ABS brakes have a self test function - usually you hear and feel the test when you first drive away in your car. The sound in many cars is a dull clunk though if you hear it at all, not what I'd call a popping. Sometimes you can feel a shudder through the brake pedal during the self test as well.
