Thanks for the replies guys. Yup, she is stock. My wife tells me she thinks the light came on after she was merging onto the highway and had to accelerate hard (because some jerk was trying to block her)
Hi guys
While the wife was out and about with my Suburban yesterday, the CEL came on, and stayed on (no, not her fault :) ). I went out again later to get some groceries (and a OBD reader:agreed:) On the way home the light went out and stayed out. Been out and about today and the light never...
Not quite related to this thread, but a funny story anyway. Many years back, in the military, I was one of a few drivers who were tasked with maintaining equipment while the main battle group went back to home base for R and R. (we didn't get to go, but that is another story)
One memorable...
Just having some idle thoughts today whoile driving along at 80kph or so along the back roads of Ontario (drove from Ancaster to Long Point and back just because it was a beautiful day, 4 hours round trip, including "sitting on the beach" time).
Anyways, back to my idle thoughts, which was...

Vibration at highway speed
Hi all
As a footnote to the above, after installing the new axle started to notice a nasty vibration just as I hit 100 kph on the speedo (actually about 105 according to the GPS). DId some (more) extensive reading on the net and narrowed it down to a few things...
Thanks for the explanation. Wish I had known all that a few days ago :shiiiiiite: , but I think still happy that I now have a posi-traction. I wasn't planning on hauling huge weight around. Thanks again. You guys are great
Another dumb question, what does the semi and full (in floater) actually mean?
Update on the brakes, took the Suburban to Midas on Upper James in Hamilton to get a brake flush done and a leaky bleed screw replaced (thought they may as well do it while doing the other messy stuff). One of the...
Yes, I am a little confused, the VIN number and build sheet says it has the semi floater originally (9.5 and 4:10 ratio) but clearly the replacement axle is different. THe bonus (for me) was getting a posi-trsaction axle (don't know nuttin abouit semi and full floaters to be honest)
Hi All
I am the proud owner of a new (to me) 97 Suburban 2500 Diesel. I have experienced a few teething problems, suppose they are pretty common. Had to replace (and re-locate) the PMD very soon after I got it, replaced the blower resistor as the fan was only blowing on high. THen went on to...
