Re: All my new Chevy's had battery problems [jcarey23]
I hate to hear about your problem. Believe me I can understand your frustration. I had an 07 that was like flipping a coin if it was going to be dead or not. I complained to GM of course they never heard of the problem, I gave them this web site. I've got a 2000 GMC with 215,000 miles that is more dependable. I have to admit we have a 2011 ... Read More

I have a 2000 Chevy Tahoe and my service 4WD light comes on every time I drive my truck about 15 miles. I can switch it in and out of 4 wheel drive with just 1 push of the button and it does not make any noises when in either 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive. I had the front differential fluid changed and the light still comes on. I don't ... Read More

Re: Update - 2000 Tahoe - 74K miles [marka09]
Hi! I just purchased a 2007 Chevrolet suburban in June with 72,000 miles on it. 1 month later my transmission went out. They covered it and put in a "rebuilt" transmission...no problems since...knock on wood. A week after I bought it though it felt funny when I would take a right hand turn. I took it in and they said nothing was wrong. I just put new tires on it and ... Read More

Re: 2000 Chevy Tahoe - 74K Miles [babebluehoe]
I had to have my transmission replaced. $3000 with a 3 year warranty. There is a systemic problem with these transmissions and Chevy will not own up to it - unless you get to executive escalations and say you are going to buy a new vehicle from Chevy. They won't admit that there is something wrong, but they will offer you a voucher for a discount on a new Chevy. I ... Read More

Re: 2000 Chevy Tahoe - 74K Miles [marka09]

I thought it would a be a more reliable truck to take my son in vs and on old 82 Dodge. Guess I'm wrong. I'm worried to drive it other then to work. I had to leave it along the road ... Read More

Chevy Tahoe No Power (sometimes)
We have a late model 2000 Tahoe. Our most recent issue is the other day the truck had NO POWER at all. No door locks, radio, lights.... So since door locks did not work, had to do it manually. (We know it's not the battery, starter or alternator) After opening and closing the driver side door, everything worked again. ? Now a couple months ago we had issues where the truck ... Read More

Re: 2000 Tahoe [gmcustsvc]
I opened up a case already and was told not just No, but Hell No, by both the rep and the supervisor. So I called GM Executive Escalations and registered my concerns. Yes, I know it's 11 years old, but the true test should be the number of miles it's been driven - 74,630 miles. Everyone keeps asking if I own any other GM products. That must mean that since I ...

UPDATE: 2000 Chevy Tahoe - 74K Miles
I just opened a case (71-944-296379) with Chevrolet. Basically they said my vehicle is TOO OLD. It doesn't matter that there was a catastrophic metal failure on a vehicle with only 74K miles (or as John - the person I spoke with at Chevrolet customer service - said " a metal rubbing on fluid problem"). Even the service writer, Craig, at the local dealer said that the failure was unusual at ... Read More

Update - 2000 Tahoe - 74K miles
I asked if 74K miles was all a transmission should last and he said that it should last longer. The dealer service writer said that Chevrolet wouldn't listen and help out on the problem because they don't know how the vehicle was driven, etc. The truck looks brand new, it has never been abused, it's a 2000 with only 74K miles, and even the service tech who looked at the problem ...

UPDATE: 2000 Chevy Tahoe - 74K Miles
The dealer called and said that I have a "catastrophic metal failure" in the transmission. Isn't this a defect in the materials? Even out of warranty I would think Chevy would acknowledge the problem and at least help out on the cost. $3000 for a remanufactured transmission with a 3 year or 100K mile warranty. In this day and age, that's a lot of money for something that seems to be ... Read More

2000 Chevy Tahoe - 74K Miles
Reading the forum I see I am not alone. I'm taking my Tahoe in for repair today. It appears that my transmission has had it.

I can't believe that Chevrolet built a transmission that will last less than ... Read More

Re: '02 Tahoe left rear wheel clanking [kytruckerwife]
I have a 2000 suburban w/ 4WD. My rear rotors deteriorated on the inside only at around 40,000 miles. I replaced the rotors and pads and the same thing happened at around 100,000. The front rotors and pads lasted past 130,000 miles with the same wear pattern- deterioration of the inside only of each rotor. A Chevy mechanic at the dealer says he sees this a lot.

Re: 2000 Chevy Tahoe intake leak [benzsalesman]
Guidance is to get it to a shop for repair, sounds like head gasket has a problem, if I understand your symptoms correctly from your description. The fact that you can see it, would be an easy diagnosis for a trained mechanic. Get it out for some estimates.

Re: grinding noise when driving '04 tahoe [andrew1968]
Could be a number of driveline things, but a bigger question--why do you think your 4wd can't be turned off? There wasn't a single '00-06 Tahoe equipped like that, as all 4wd models got 2Hi, 4Hi, 4Lo as choices to run in via push button. So it's a bit odd why you said that. Regardless, it could be a bearing, maybe, though I'm not sure why it might come and go ... Read More

Re: Help, MPG sucks [jmaynard]
There's nothing wrong with your Tahoe. There's just something wrong with Chevy's sales tactics. Most of their sales force don't know what thier fuel management does. If you apply gas, it will run in V8 mode. When you let your foot off the gas, it drops into v4 mode. Very misleading from their advertising. I say it's false and a joke.

They were not sure where the leak originated from, so they went and caulked the entire area around the inside of the sunroof (any and all openings) with what looks like a clear, waterproof sealant. Looks like a job I might of done after the car was out of warranty; definitely not a factory fix. ... Read More

Well...
My 2000 Tahoe came with the same tires stock, not exactly the bet tires (putting it nicely) as far as im concerned, at 12,000 miles i had to replace the tires. Also Yes we had a 1996 Tahoe and that body style 1995-1999 had terrible steering, very lose and you were always moving the wheel, however i think Chevy REALLY improved in the new body style.

Quadrasteer on Tahoe
Are you guys really having that much trouble driving these things? The Tahoe has less wheelbase, length, and turning circle than your average minivan. I wouldn't hold your breath on getting quadrasteer. The suburban has another 15" of wheelbase under it and that's still rather short by trucks standards. It might be helpful with a trailer, but the Tahoe turns plenty sharp for moving around trailers. Seems like everyone has a ... Read More

Re: The breakin period for the Tahoe/Yukon
I live on Long Island, in NY, and ordered my 2001 Tahoe from www.marchantchevy.com in S. Carolina because they are a $98 over invoice dealer and beat all the locals by at least $1000. It's an LS 4x4, all I added was skid plates, tow pkg, 373 rear, and Chevy mudflaps all around. The front bench seat and rear liftgate were free options back then. It arrived in Nov 2000, and ...

22 years of Chevys.
Here's a rare shot of all three generations of "Potagold". The '92 Blazer has since been sold, and hopefully made it's young new owner very happy at Christmas 2000. The '80 van finally left my driveway after 21 years of ownership in Sept. '01. The '01 Tahoe remains unchanged, except for addition of a set of Westin "Platinum CPS" step bars. Here's a shot of the van taken during it's glory ... Read More

blh7068 and kiilew
Clunking in the steering appeared when the remake of the Tahoe/Yukon was introduced. I would think that GM had rid themselves of all the clunky shafts. It appears not. Maybe its a numbers game or design flaw as some have had to change the shaft more than once. Here is the service bulletin on it...note the date and though it says for recirculating ball type found on 4x4's, it also applies ... Read More

I Love my 2000 Tahoe LS, what I hate is...
The Firestone LEs, that were specified as "all-terrains" in all of the paperwork when I ordered the truck, but are really "all-Seasons". When I caught Chevy on it, their response was pretty much "tough %^&*, we're Chevrolet and can call things what we want to call them." I also have had it with several area Chevy service departments.

2000 Tahoe Brake Problems
I bought a 2000 Tahoe last fall, and twice this year I have experienced a loss of braking. This is not a fading of brake power, but a complete loss of stopping power. Both times were on clean dry roads, on very slight hills. The last time was exiting from a highway. The Tahoe slowed well from highway speed to about 5-10 mph. At that point the braking just disappeared. I ... Read More

2000 Tahoe Update @ 16k
After 7 months and 16k on my '00 Tahoe LT 4wd, a few observations about overall quality. Compared to the prev. generation, the engineering of the new body style is light years ahead. My '97 Suburban needed brakes and rear axle replacement and the overall body structure was quite loose and rattle prone. The 2000 is a very tight, rigid platform much less prone to the shaking and vibration of the ... Read More
