Turned our 2005 Yukon SLE off and waited for a few minutes and transmission started working ... Read More

  Written by: freebird7 on Jan 4, 2010 4:17:13 PM

  I have a 2001 GMC Yukon 4x4 that needs the rearend replaced. I am considering removing the existing rearend and installing a rearend from either a 1999 or 2004 GMC Denali, which have the same gear ratio and same 8-1/2" ring gear size. Are either of these rearends compatible with the 2001 Yukon rearend?

  Your wheel speed sensors need to be cleaned. It is a pretty simple repair by the dealer but time consuming. The dealers don't seem to like making the repair though. I found out It was a recall on some of the vehicles but not the Yukon. It costs about $500. I paid for the repair and then wrote a complaint letter to my dealer. The service mgr at the dealer was ...

  Remembering the old days a wishing to be back there again. It was sure nice to have a place to go and find information about the GM-900. When I was searching the internet to find information on the 2007 Chevrolet Suburban that I had ordered, I came across a forum. I noticed that it was called “2007 Chevrolet Tahoe/GMC Yukon”. But with the exceptions of the Suburban body is 20” longer, ... Read More

  I traded my 1999 Denali in June with 70,000 miles and praying that it would make it to a dealership that sold imports. The GMC person that I talked to wouldn't offer me one penny towards repairs. I hope that things turn out better for you. My regular mechanic told me that he is making a ton of money on all of the repairs. My Denali had major safety issues and ... Read More

  I've seen an entry or two somewhere early in these forums (you can read all, as I did, or do a search) about piston slap on the GMC V8s. But frankly, I saw a lot more about piston slap on the Fords when I was contemplating buying my 1999 F150 (sold to get our new 2003 Yukon XL). The problem didn't seem to be wide-spread in the Fords nor does it ... Read More
