I just got this off my uncle's friend, but i'm buying a new car next month and there's just not enough space in my compound.
It's gon' be tough losing this baby as i only just purchased it last month, but I'll let it go for the right price.

This car is perfect for people who love big engines and it's a chick/hunk magnet (lol!)

My asking price is 1.5M Naira,

Why are you guys digressing? If the the eventual buyer wants all these fixed, it'll be done.

Not when the oil pressure gage is at max shocked, If we are pointing out that your truck might have issues its because we've learnt from experienceat what to look for when buying a used car.

Youve asked before about finding a Chevy mech, but you never mentioned the reason now I see it has to do with engine service(oil&filter change)
Re: 2003 Chevrolet Suburban For Quick Sale! (engine partially damaged in fire) 500K by Seanpoe(m): 9:40am On Mar 31, 2009
Are your volunteering your services? i don't mind, I know they are not major issues as the car runs prefectly, i just don't want any road side mechanic touching my SUV.

I went for a full service and to check for the error codes last week, turns out it's from a bad temperature sensor,
Still available at 1.5 mill,
Re: 2003 Chevrolet Suburban For Quick Sale! (engine partially damaged in fire) 500K by sultaan(m): 6:49pm On Apr 06, 2009
Temperature sensor seems to be working, it might be coolant temperature sensor which tells computer engine is warm or cold.
If that car was warm when you took that pic, from what I see, its either you have removed your thermostat, or you have a air pocket in you cooling system.
Your tach is at 600rpm, but temp is below 180 i.e engine running cold.

Temperature sensor does not affect oil pressure.

What were the codes they pulled. At 40k mile, its still young, double check on the oil, and filter part number.
A substandard/wrong filter might be the problem. You may not need to sell it.
Re: 2003 Chevrolet Suburban For Quick Sale! (engine partially damaged in fire) 500K by Seanpoe(m): 6:20pm On Apr 09, 2009
I'll post the error codes 2moro,  who said i was selling 'cause it was defective? It runs Perfectly.
I took that picture very early in the morning, does that help?

I hate to say this, but between then and now, someone finally burned the engine.

Those trucks are good, its people that miss warning signs.
Its done , I hope you learn from this.
Re: 2003 Chevrolet Suburban For Quick Sale! (engine partially damaged in fire) 500K by Seanpoe(m): 7:21am On Oct 17, 2009
@Sultaan
Do you know a mechanic that fixes these kind of trucks? I've got an estimated quote to fix it, but i'd like a second opinion.
The engine is actually only partially burnt. I'm just not interested in spending my money to fix it.
