Long story short, I removed the cross-member and drove the car off the ramps. I noticed the toe in/out was messed up so I lifted the car back up and put the cross-member back on ( I had to hit the lower control arm on the pass side to get the CM bolts in) now BOTH wheels have Negative camber...

Just wondering how your header bolts and clamps are holding up. I've had mine in since Aug 2013 and the bolts on the headers were loose as heck. Also the clamps to the CAT and are leaking and rusty as heck.

HI all, I have a 2004 Envoy XUV with 130,000 miles. I'm getting a higher then normal idle. When I'm driving down my road 25mph. and put it in neutral, it goes up to 1500 rpms. and will barely come down when I come to a stop. engine shakes pretty hard and loud. I've got a P1133 code, I...

OK, I had the Torque Converter replaced, It now locks up at highway speed. My trans temp get to 180 on the highway doing 70mph at 60 degrees air temp. When I drive in heavier traffic around 45mph with traffic lights, (not stop and go) it goes to 205 degrees. Does this sound like the temps...

I picked up the envoy from the trans shop yesterday, he said the changed the wiring harness and solenoid. On the way home about 25 miles, it threw the p0894 code again and the TC did not lock up again. I turned around and took it back to him, he gonna try and change the TC next. I'll let you...

What's your ECT temp at? and what is that?

Envoy was just dropped it off at the trans guy this morning.

I guess we'll see in 3 weeks!!

I had a mobile mechanic come over for $75 to get my 2 furthest back bolts out. They were broke off before I even pulled the cracked manifold out. He welded a nut on it and got them out in 20 minutes. All the other bolts came out pretty easy, the front ones were not even that tight. Are you...

Make sure and tell them you have the XL to the extender piece

Ok. Drove it 5 miles. Sat idle 15 min. Temp was 167. outside temp was 78. Im still thinking its the headers heating up the trans. But I'll have to see what my trans guy says before I can see for sure. I was hoping someone with the headers would chime in and tell me what their trans temps are at.

Thanks for the info on the torque converter. Im taking it back when i get home from vacation. Im gonna get it tuned but needed to get a week first that i didn't need the envoy. But the trans stuff came . So getting that done first

Little update. We made it to Mackinaw. Trans temps were highest 240 uphill and 228 flat road. 3rd gear. Did have another code come up after we stopped for gas. P0741. And my cruise control stopped working when we left in the morning.

I took a better look at it today and it was more like around 200 rpm when driving around 50mph I took it back to the trans guy, he didn't have time today to check it out, but said it would be fine for me to drive it on vacation. I'll update next week when I get it back into him what the...

I followed the direction on a different post about Torque PRO. I am using GM method 1. (1 and 2 give same temp) I also have the TCC slip speed. it gives it in RPM's. it stays around 500 RPM range and fluctuates. Taking the Voy back to the trans shop in the morning to have him look at...
