2007-2008 GMC Yukon, Yukon Denali, Yukon Denali XL, Yukon XL

 

 

Attention: Proceed with this bulletin ONLY if the customer has commented about this concern AND the EI number is listed in GMVIS, otherwise disregard the bulletin and proceed with diagnostics found in the published service information. THIS IS NOT A RECALL. Refer to Service Bulletin 04-00-89-053A for more detail on the use of engineering information bulletins.

 

This bulletin is being revised to add the 2008 model year. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 07-08-62-004 (Section 08 -- Body & Accessories).

 

Condition

Some customers may comment on front fascia paint concerns on peeling and/or scratches.

 

What Action to Take

GM Engineering is attempting to determine the root cause of the above condition. GM Engineering has a need to obtain information first hand during diagnosis and BEFORE repair. As a result, this information will be used by engineering to "root cause" the customer’s concern and develop/validate a field fix.

 

 

Instructions

If a vehicle is encountered with the above concern, please do the following steps:

 

 

  1. Record the VIN.
  2. Record the vehicle build date.
  3. Record the mileage at the time of service.
  4. Record the vehicle paint code and color.
  5. Photograph the paint concern.
  6. E-mail the pictures to [email protected]
  7. Contact Wayne Witkop at the GM Exterior Group prior to performing any paint repair to the front fascia.

Engineer Contact Information

Contact Engineer Wayne Witkop at 586-492-9096, and E-mail pictures to [email protected] before repairing the vehicle. GM Engineering may visit dealerships that are near Detroit, Michigan. In either case you will receive a response back within 2 hours on what action to take the same day of your call (Eastern Daylight Time).

 

If you do not receive a response from engineering, then proceed to repair the vehicle.

 

Parts Information

If necessary, GM may make arrangements to have the old fascia shipped to the Warranty Parts Center (WPC) based upon the information provided.

 

Important: Do NOT ship any parts to the WPC without a WPC request having been issued. WPC Requests will be sent for any parts that engineering wants to have returned.

 

Warranty Information

For vehicles repaired under engineering direction, choose the appropriate labor operation that best describes the repair:

Attention: Proceed with this bulletin ONLY if the customer has commented about this concern AND the EI number is listed in GMVIS. If the customer has not commented about this condition or the EI does not show in GMVIS, disregard the bulletin and proceed with diagnostics found in published service information. THIS IS NOT A RECALL - refer to Service Bulletin 04-00-89-053A for more detail on the use of Engineering Information bulletins.

 

This bulletin is being revised to correct information under the Warranty Information section. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 08-08-61-001 (Section 08 -- Body and Accessories).

 

Condition

Important: If the customer did not comment about this condition, do not proceed with this bulletin.

 

Some customers may comment on a noise coming from the underbody of the vehicle.

 

Cause

GM Engineering is attempting to determine the root cause of this condition. GM has a need to obtain information about the diagnosis and repair. Use the following procedure to diagnose and repair the vehicle. Note the information on the repair order as necessary.

 

 

  1. Describe the noise (i.e. pop, creak, etc.) and the conditions in which the noise can be duplicated.
  2. Is the vehicle equipped with running boards -- If yes -- are they GM Accessory, or aftermarket? If a GM Accessory - proceed to step 3. If an aftermarket running board or the running board is mounted using the body mount bolt:

    Remove the running boards and test drive the vehicle to determine if the concern has been corrected.

     

     

    If the noise was eliminated or reduced, reinstall the running boards and proceed to step 4.

     

     

    If the noise is still present, reinstall the running boards and proceed to step 3.

     


  3. If it is suspected that the noise is coming from a body mount, do the following steps:

    3.1. Install the J 39570 - Chassis Ears to the frame rail at or near the body mounts.

     

     

    3.2. Test drive the vehicle to identify which mount is suspect.

     

     

    3.3. Measure the torque of the suspect mount(s).

     

     

    3.4. Remove the suspect mount. Drive the vehicle and determine if the noise has been eliminated.

     

     

    3.5. Inspect the body mount spacer/bracket on the body side. The body mount spacer/bracket on the body side should be flat. Note whether the metal is flat or if the mount appears to be "pulled through".

     


  4. Contact engineer Gary Banasiak at 586-492-8074 and provide him with diagnostic information.

Warranty Information

Attention: Proceed with this bulletin ONLY if the customer has commented about this concern AND the EI number is listed in GMVIS, otherwise disregard the bulletin and proceed with diagnostics found in the published service information. THIS IS NOT A RECALL. Refer to Service Bulletin 04-00-89-053A for more detail on the use of Engineering Information Bulletins.

 

This bulletin is being revised to add the 2008 Chevrolet Impala, part information and engineering contact information for the Impala. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 07-02-32-002C (Section 02 -- Steering).

 

Condition

Some customers may comment on a fluid leak. Upon investigation, the technician may find fluid leaking from the power steering system.

 

What Action to Take

Important: All potential leaks should be completely cleaned and identified before attempting to repair or replace any power steering components.

 

 

  1. Start diagnosis by inspecting the fluid level in the Power Steering Reservoir. If the fluid level is NOT low, a careful analysis of the condition is necessary as it may involve a different type of fluid leak.
  2. Visually inspect the components where the fluid has accumulated.
  3. Completely clean off any fluid residue from the suspect components.
  4. Apply tracing powder to the suspect components. This is an effective way to determine the source of a leak. As an alternative, fluorescent dye (such as Kent Moore J 28431-6) may be added to the power steering fluid.
  5. Start the vehicle and allow the power steering system to reach normal operating temperatures.
  6. Turn the steering wheel to the stops in each direction while bumping the steering wheel against the stops 3-4 times. This will build maximum steering system pressure and help identify the source of the leak if present.
  7. Determine the source of the leak.
  8. If a repeatable leak is found, use the following tables to determine if the condition is repaired and what corrective action is needed.

Repairable Leaks

Source of Leak

 

Correction

 

Pressure feed and return hoses/lines

 

Replace seals, hose, or line set

 

Power steering pump

 

Reseal or replace pump if necessary

 

Cylinder gear/rack lines

 

Replace O-ring seals or rack lines

 

Non- Repairable Leaks

Source of Leak

 

Correction

 

Porosity leak in the gear/rack housing

 

Replace steering gear/rack

 

Leak from tie rod boots

 

Pinion seal

 

Repeatable leak at steering gear adjuster plug*

 

See note below

 

 

*If fluid is observed at the adjuster plug during the initial visual inspection, then refer to the following:

 

 

 

• Seepage at the adjuster plug may not necessarily indicate an active leak. Power steering fluid is used during the manufacturing of the gear/rack. The fluid used at assembly is pushed into the pinion area during assembly. The adjuster plug and the area below the pinion are not positively sealed. Fluid trapped in this area during assembly may seep from the adjuster plug. The rack should not be replaced for this condition.

 

 

• You can distinguish seepage from an active leak by removing the left tie rod boot clamp and inspecting for the presence of fluid at the inner tie rod.

 

 

• If no fluid is found in the left tie rod boot, replace the boot clamp and clean the seepage from the rack. No further action is needed.

 

 

• If fluid is found in the left tie rod boot, replace the gear assembly.

 

Engineer Contact Information

Contact the appropriate engineer for additional information or guidance before repairing the vehicle. This call may result in a personal visit to your dealership or a special request to return parts that exhibit unique conditions. In either case, you should receive a response back within 2 hours on what action to take the same business day of your call (Eastern Daylight Time).

Condition

Some customers may comment on a vehicle/tire vibration.

 

Cause

Important: For vehicles equipped with RPO QSS (P275/55R20), this bulletin only applies to Goodyear tires. If the vehicle is equipped with RPO QSS -- Bridgestone tires, disregard this bulletin.

 

GM Engineering is attempting to determine the root cause of reported tire vibrations on vehicles equipped with P275/55R20 (Goodyear), LT245/75R16, P265/70R17 or P245/70R17 tires. GM has a need to obtain information during diagnosis and BEFORE repair. This information will be used by engineering to "root cause" the customer's concern and develop/validate a field fix.

 

If the customer's concern cannot be duplicated, disregard this bulletin. If the customer's concern can be duplicated, complete the following steps. Be sure to note the following information on the repair order:

 

 

  1. Verify that the VIN and mileage listed on the repair order is accurate.
  2. Describe the customer's concern (i.e. shake, buzz, roughness, tingling). Note when (mph, idle, accel, decel, etc) and where (steering column, seat, etc) the vibration is felt.
  3. Document the tire size and manufacturer of the tires currently on the vehicle.
  4. Inspect the following components to verify that they are in good working condition. Note any "faults" on the repair order:

    tire/wheel assemblies -- Verify the presence of wheel weights and PSI of tires.

     

     

    steering components

     

     

    suspension components

     


  5. Select a smooth, level road and slowly accelerate the vehicle up to highway speed.
  6. Observe the vehicle for disturbances that match the customer's description and note the following conditions:

    Vehicle speed

     

     

    Engine RPM

     

     

    Transmission gear range and specific gear

     


  7. Does the disturbances match the customer's description? (Refer to Symptoms -- Vibration Diagnosis and Correction, found in SI).

    NO -- continue to diagnose and repair the vibration not related to the tire and wheel assembly. Fax the completed repair order (front and back) to: 248-685-6140 -- Attn: Kevin Kelly

     

     

    YES -- proceed with Step 8.

     

    Important: Before proceeding with step 8, the vehicle must be driven for at least 10 miles, any "load" removed from the vehicle and PSI checked to Placard prior to checking Roadforce Variation.
     

  8. Using the HUNTER GSP9700 Roadforce/Balancer, measure the roadforce variation of each tire/wheel assembly. Guidelines for acceptable Roadforce Variation can be found in SI -- refer to bulletin 00-03-10-006C. Also, with the original balance weights still installed, measure the inboard and outboard imbalance. Record the findings on the RO.
  9. Record on the repair order the DOT number found on the rim flange of the tire.
  10. PRIOR to making any repairs, contact the engineer listed below with information from your diagnosis. The engineer will provide direction to repair the customer's concern. For vehicles located in SE Michigan, the engineer may need to physically inspect the vehicle.

This bulletin is being revised to correct information under the Warranty Information section. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 08-08-61-001 (Section 08 -- Body and Accessories).

 

Condition

Important: If the customer did not comment about this condition, do not proceed with this bulletin.

 

Some customers may comment on a noise coming from the underbody of the vehicle.

 

Cause

GM Engineering is attempting to determine the root cause of this condition. GM has a need to obtain information about the diagnosis and repair. Use the following procedure to diagnose and repair the vehicle. Note the information on the repair order as necessary.

 

 

  1. Describe the noise (i.e. pop, creak, etc.) and the conditions in which the noise can be duplicated.
  2. Is the vehicle equipped with running boards -- If yes -- are they GM Accessory, or aftermarket? If a GM Accessory - proceed to step 3. If an aftermarket running board or the running board is mounted using the body mount bolt:

    Remove the running boards and test drive the vehicle to determine if the concern has been corrected.

     

     

    If the noise was eliminated or reduced, reinstall the running boards and proceed to step 4.

     

     

    If the noise is still present, reinstall the running boards and proceed to step 3.

     


  3. If it is suspected that the noise is coming from a body mount, do the following steps:

    3.1. Install the J 39570 - Chassis Ears to the frame rail at or near the body mounts.

     

     

    3.2. Test drive the vehicle to identify which mount is suspect.

     

     

    3.3. Measure the torque of the suspect mount(s).

     

     

    3.4. Remove the suspect mount. Drive the vehicle and determine if the noise has been eliminated.

     

     

    3.5. Inspect the body mount spacer/bracket on the body side. The body mount spacer/bracket on the body side should be flat. Note whether the metal is flat or if the mount appears to be "pulled through".

     


  4. Contact engineer Gary Banasiak at 586-492-8074 and provide him with diagnostic information.

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
