Now, Tuesday this week, November 29, 2001 at 160k, vehicle won't move. Was working just fine, parked, went to leave, no reverse, no forward gear, nothing. ... Read More

  Important. If you have to replace a your 02' IACV, GMC will make you buy the WHOLE Throttle Body Assembly @ a cost of $850 bucks. They will not sell you the IACV individually, and you can not buy it new from any WEB SIGHT parts house. The ones they claim FIT, ARE THE WRONG APPLICATION! FYI!

  There is plenty of info out there from GM. I presume you must be having difficulty using the internet. Try this: On the address line of your browser enter 'Stabilitrak' and '2003' or 'Denali'. Either will do. Then press 'Enter'. You should see the following links amongst the list. They aren't exactly difficult to find, the first one of these links was the second hit from Yahoo. http://media.gm.com/division/2003_prodinfo/03_gmc/03_yukon_denali- - /pr.html http://www.automotivetrends.com/2003gmcyukondenalireview.htm ...

  If you are looking to purchase new, be sure to stop by your local GMC dealer and pick up a free brochure on the Yukon/Yukon XL/Denali. It is a very complete "book" on the two cars so you can see what the differences are. One expectation I had from reading the forums was the availability of four-wheel-steering on the 2003 Denali XL. Bad news there: It is not and WILL not ... Read More

• Rusting chrome

  Written by: mbarker62 on Sep 19, 2002 1:10:36 PM

  I purchased a 2002 XL back in October 2001. During that first winter season I skied once a week in the mountains. Colorado uses magnesium chloride to combat snow and ice on I-70. After only 6 months, all side chrome, front grill, and Yukon insignias were rusty. GM replaced all chrome including both bumpers with no hassles. The 2nd ski season I made it a point to wash the truck after ... Read More

  Written by: tuckpana on Jun 20, 2002 5:14:50 PM

  I have a 2002 Yukon XL with 3000mi love it. Only problem so far is when it is cold or sat for a long period, You start it up and drive anywhere from 10 to 30 min on the highway and it starts getting rough. It begins mild and ends up being quite severe vibration. Loss of power even in the flats. Basically got to floor it to maintain speed. Then ... Read More

  Can't seem to figure out if I should purchase the 2002 Toyota Sequoia or the GMC Yukon Denali (short body). I've done so much comparison that I just confused my self. Both vehicles will price about the same. I'm not familiar with the problems with the GM models.

  Hello Everyone...just purchased a 2002 Garnet Red Denali a couple of days ago (standard not the XL). After being completely confused by the sales and parts managers of two dealerships, and since my monitoring of this site helped with my purchase decision, I have the following questions: 1) Does the Chevy Tahoe or GMC Yukon cargo shade fit in the back of the standard Denali. The Denali has cutouts in the ... Read More

  I got the $1000 2001/2002 Yukon rebate certificate a couple weeks ago from GMC. This rebate is for current GMC Suburban owner and is not transferrable. I purchased a 1997 GMC Suburban SLT 4WD. This certificate is valid until 9/30/2001 and it made me thinking about getting a Yukon XL Denali.

  Rickhess, I have been also keeping watch on Wheels and it was my dealer that said that this week it was the cloth graphite that rejected my order. He wanted to know if I wanted to change to the lighter interior (pewter cloth ). I don't want that lighter cloth and I really don't like it. I have a big dog that goes everywhere we go and that's why I don't ... Read More
