I did not. I wasn't even thinking about it. We were moving to a new house this week after Christmas and since I was already off I wanted to have this done so that my wife would have her Envoy to go to work in. The temp gauge reads 1 mark below 210 when sitting idle and right at 210 going down...

I had the Envoy in to replace the front 2 struts/springs and the rear 2 shocks yesterday and I had them go ahead and replace the thermostat. I asked about the coolant temp sensor as well but they said the parts store they use in town didn't have it in stock. I'm pretty sure they went through...

I think we found the issue on this. The wiring harness box that does the chimes started alternating how loud the chimes would go, and we noticed this coincided with the battery drain. I got the box replaced under warranty and knock on wood so far 2 weeks later we are still good. Thanks all...

Serpentine Belt http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_poly-rib&174;-belt-dayco-poly-rib_3290153-p?searchTerm=belt That should work for you. I'm taking mine to a shop for the same thing. Mine isn't throwing a code but it is reading 1-2 marks above 210.

Yesterday morning it was running just fine. I got a call from my wife around noon with her saying the Sirius XM part of our aftermarket nav unit stopped working. Okay, so I put it on my to do list to fix yesterday. My wife went to pick up our kids at her sister's house and when she went to...

Bad mental picture!!

Envoy started up this morning with the temperature outside of 39 degrees. The only thing I did yesterday evening was verify the wiring to the starter was good and we took out the starter relay and reinstalled it. ARGH!!!!

Well it's starting just fine now. Argh!!! Voltmeter on the battery parked with everything off is 12.9 volts. 14.6 with engine running.

From what I could see this morning the wiring didn't look that bad on ours. Ours wasn't rusty like the one in your picture; it just looks like it's a used part. We don't use salt on our roads in the winter though.

I know I don't hear any clicking inside when I'm in the drivers seat when I go to start it. If I don't hear it clicking with my ear next to it under the hood then it would most likely be that relay? If it is clicking then I should suspect it's the starter itself? If that doesn't work I'm going...

Did you by any chance take any pictures of the starter removal and install?

Did you replace the starter motor itself? Is it true the solenoid is built into the starter thus to replace it you have to replace the entire starter motor? I looked this morning after it again failed to turn over and I do see the starter. I see a blue wire connected to a contact above two...

Well that didn't take long. Went to go start it up so that we could go to church this evening and it's doing the same thing. Now I'm suspecting it's the starter or the solenoid. What do you guys think? Like I said everything comes on electrical. It acts like I'm trying to start the vehicle...

Installed a new ignition switch on Friday and so far so good. Not sure if I'm trying to notice anything but the contacts on the old switch looked dirty as I could see black lines on the metal. Again not sure if I'm just trying to see something. We had fun trying to get the new ignition switch...

How do I get the tilt steering lever off? I tried to follow the instructions on the other site but the tilt steering lever is in the way.
