BOUGHT THIS TAHOE FROM LOCAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE TO REPLACE MY WIFE'S JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE.  WE HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS UNDER THE AGE OF 3 GROWING LIKE WEEDS.  I WAS GOING TO FIX THIS UP AS A DAILY DRIVER FOR HER TO GIVE HER AND THE GIRLS MORE ROOM.  MY WIFE LIKES THE TAHOE BUT HAS DECIDED SHE WOULD LIKE A SUBURBAN INSTEAD, SO THE TAHOE MUST GO!


LET'S START WITH THE THINGS I KNOW THIS CAR NEEDS:

RIGHT FRONT FENDER HAS BEEN PUSHED BACK SLIGHTLY AND MAKES CONTACT WITH THE FRONT DOOR WHEN OPENING.  HAD A LOCAL BODY SHOP LOOK AT IT AND THEY SAID THE EASIEST THING TO DO IS REPLACE THE FENDER WITH A USED FACTORY REPLACEMENT.  GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS DECALS FROM SHERIFF'S OFFICE USE, SO THIS FENDER WONT NEED TO HAVE THE DECALS REMOVED!


CHECK ENGINE LAMP IS ON WITH A CODE FOR THE RIGHT BANK KNOCK SENSOR.  I WOULD RECOMMEND REPLACING BOTH SENSORS SINCE THE OTHER SIDE WILL SURELY FAIL AS SOON AS THE TRUCKS BACK TOGETHER.  SENSORS ARE LOCATED UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD SO WILL TAKE ABOUT A DAYS WORTH OF WORK AND APPROX $160 IN PARTS.


HAS THE NOTORIOUS KNOCK FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, INDICATING AN UPDATED INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT IS DUE.  SHAFT TAKES ABOUT AN HOUR TO REPLACE AND ARE READILY AVAILABLE ON EBAY FOR AROUND $60.00


REAR A/C CONTROL DOOR ACTUATOR IS NOT WORKING SO REAR A/C ONLY BLOWS WARM AIR.  COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE TRUCKS AND REPLACEMENT REQUIRES REMOVAL OF RIGHT REAR INTERIOR PLASTIC.  ABOUT A 1 HOUR JOB.

FINALLY, THE DASH WARNING CENTER SHOWS THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM NEEDS SERVICE.  THIS IS BECAUSE THESE WHEELS DO NOT HAVE THE CORRECT VALVE STEMS TO WORK WITH THIS SYSTEM.  ACCORDING TO THE TIRE SHOP IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENTS TO NOT USE THE TIRE WARNING SYSTEM AS IT CAN FALSELY IDENTIFY NON EXISTING CONCERNS FOR THE OFFICER DRIVING.  SYSTEM CAN BE RECONNECTED BY SIMPLY HAVING THE CORRECT VALVE STEMS INSTALLED.


NOW FOR THE GOOD STUFF:

VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH A TRAIL READY BRAND FRONT BUMPER.  THIS THING WILL ALLOW YOU TO MOW OVER SMALL TREES AND OTHER OBSTACLES WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN!  BUMPER HAS MOUNT FOR WINCH AS WELL AS 6" OFF ROAD DRIVING LIGHTS.

HAD VEHICLE CHECKED OUT BY LOCAL SHOP AND THEY FOUND ALL FLUIDS APPEAR IN GOOD CONDITION AND FILTERS LOOK NEW.  THIS IS WHY MY OTHER CAR IS AN EX COP CAR, THEY MAINTAIN THEIR VEHICLES!!

I REPLACED THE HEATER BLOWER RESISTOR UNDER THE DASH AS THE FAN WAS ONLY BLOWING ON SETTINGS 1-4.  THIS IS ALSO A NOTORIOUS FAILURE ON THESE VEHICLES. FAN WORKS EXCELLENT NOW.

VEHICLE HAS VINYL FLOORING SO SPILLS AREN'T A CONCERN.  FRONT SEATS ARE CLOTH AND THE REAR SEAT IS VINYL.  VEHICLE WAS ORDERED THIS WAY AS IT WAS USED AS A SHERIFF'S VEHICLE.

VEHICLE HAS THE MORE RARE REAR BARN DOORS, INSTEAD OF THE LIFT GATE THAT MOST TAHOE'S SEEM TO HAVE.

VEHICLE IS SET UP FOR 2ND BATTERY OPTION.  HAS TRAY AND BATTERY CABLES IF NEW OWNER WANTS TO INSTALL.

PLEASE ASK ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS PRIOR TO END OF AUCTION!

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.
