2001 Chevrolet Tahoe 4dr SUV
285-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD
| 78000 mi US $390 |
Low speed on blower motor didn't work. Shop replaced motor and speed control resistor. New motor whines, so probably taking it back. |
| 78000 mi | Blower motor that was replaced a month or so ago had an unacceptable hum when it ran. New motor has less of a hum, but still more than original and more than it should. |

| 151400 mi US $30 |
A/C would cut out and not come back on when driving slowly or parked for 10-15 min. If I left the hood open the A/C compressor started working again. Replaced the high pressure cut out switch on the compressor without removing comp. 8hr job |
| 221000 mi US $15 |
When very hot outside, with the a/c on and the car not moving very fast the a/c would cut out and never come back on until the vehicle cooled down. What was happening was the LOW PRESSURE SWITCH was electrically cutting out in high HEAT, not LOW FREON PRESSURE. By Jumping out the low pressure switch connector with a paper clip the problem was resolved. This low pressure switch was original about 16 years old......works like new ever since the repair! |
