Local auto parts stores will replace this vehicle windshield wipers for free of charge as a gesture of courteous.

See the answer from the previous post.

Cold on passenger side and hot on driver side, the cause is that the AC system is low on refrigerant.

If the climate control in this truck is dual zone (temp settings for driver and pass sides are separate) there *could* be a problem with the blend door actuator on the driver side. Although the problem you detailed is common, if it were low on refrigerant, turning the engine off and restarting shouldn't do anything to help it blow cold all of a sudden. But, the blend door actuator on the driver side is the component that controls the temperature of the air coming from the driver side vents and this component is electric.

if you dont have a lift GMC says you can go up to 18" wheels BUT if you do you may get tire rub on the frame and on the stabilzer arms. This is my issue with my stock 2012 SLE so i would say stick with the 16" wheels unless you already have a lift.

well the tire mionitors are in your tires so i don't think that has anything to do with it, the sensors in the tires don't last forever, one of them probably went bad. or ran out of life in the battery it is a little wireless sensor in the tire. Unless by monitor it means the module that recives the signal from the tire pressure sensors. But i think it is trying to tell you one of the sensors is not working

just had this happen. have your tires checked. i had steel belt showing on one of my tires, but did not notice it. it just happen to be on the inside and out of site every time i parked and looked. found it when I went to tire store to have tires inflated thinking that was the problem. the car is telling you your tires are in distress, have them checked out asap.

Several possibilities; faulty turn signal switch, faulty switch wiring / connection, faulty turn signal flasher. Since you have already narrowed the problem down - by touching the signal switch - I'd say the switch and related wiring is the issue.
Try the many on-line auto parts sources, such as; www.autopartswarehouse.com, www.rockauto.com, or www.partsgeek.com. For example, they (RockAuto) list the turn signal switch assembly from around $99.00 for your vehicle.

Replace the Driver's Door Module (which is the master switch assembly, however, the new DDM will not work until it is programmed which requires a dealer service dept to do using the Tech II scan tool only.

not sure whitch cover your speaking of, but it will need a new gasket. if its a valve cover they run abou $30 bucks at auto zone and sould take around an hour to change.

REMEMBER gasket sealant!

The 'cover" is an access cover so that ne can gain access to the oil filter which on Sonoma the oil filter is mounted remotely away from the engine. what is leaking are the rubber hose assemblies of which there is two. You have to determine which of the two (or if both) are leaking and then replace it. This is not a piece of cake to do, requires substantial experience so nothing goes wrong. Its not a valve cover by the way.

check your ball joints and a-arm bushings

it should be on a panel in the door sill and on the bumper, I would guess around 8k trailer, 8oolbs tounge weight

I'm not sure the air intake system has any type of 'response'...the air intake is only a component on top of the engine. Maybe you mean, how can the engine have better response?
Simple, check the engine state-of-tune = new (or recently replaced): air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs - replace and repair these items as the first steps. Next, clean the air intake and the mass air flow - using the correct spray cleaner designed for this task.

Ram air intake aka, short ram intakes are good for low end horsepower and torque

Cold air intakes have more horsepower gaines then short ram and more top end power.

If your looking for more torque then horsepower, meaning more acceleration but dont care about topping out your car, then short ram intake is what you want.

If you already have enough torque and just want more horsepower and go fast as possible, then cold air intake is what you want.
