I have a 2000 GMC Savana conversion passanger van, and the sending unit for the gas tank sticks at 3/4 tank. I didn't know this until the 1st time I ran out of gas.

Other than the GMC dealer, I can't find the part, Is there ... Read More...

Savana/express mirrors

Written by: xfiles on May 04, 2002 11:19 PM

An interesting thought hit me regarding what may be a possible cause of the fast failure rate for the mirrors. One cause may be road vibration, but a more likely cause is using a high pressure wand while washing your van. I have done it myself, 1500 or more psi pointed at the mirrors even 3 feet away is a tremendous amount of force, especially when the surface area of ... Read More...

GMC ....not as good as Ford

Written by: oak4 on Oct 05, 2001 09:15 AM

I'm in the HVAC service business and purchased a new 2000 Savana 3500 van in 4/00. I drove Fords for 8 years when working for someone else, but I'm a GM man so I chose the GMC. I took the van in at 12k miles for a front end alignment but you had to pay $175 because it didn't happen in the first 7k. A few months go by and my front pads need replaced at less than 20k. I'm now at 37k ... Read More...

The feeling in the steering wheel was like something was loose or similar to a worn steering gear,and also a vibration/shudder when turning. The dealer rotated the tires and later ... Read More...
