SOURCE: How to replace the headlights on my 2003 GMC envoy.

The headlights on the envoy are the easiest parts of the car to repair. You just pull the two tabs at the top of the headlights, screw out the bulb containers and you are good to go

SOURCE: battery removal on a 2004 GMC Envoy

The battery is on the right side behind the fuse box. You need a metric set to undo the 3 screws. Theres one that attaches to the body, one to the bar that goes along the top, and theres one on the left side below the vacuum hose and air induction. After you've taken out those three, you should lift the whole thing out(battery and shroud) together. It's hard to take the shroud off before you lift the battery out. After that, you have to pry the shoud off the battery. The two terminals in the back make it hard. Then just go to any auto parts store and they'll give you a new one.

SOURCE: how do you change brakes on a 2003 gmc envoy

don't need any special tools, standard sockets sets, "C" clams is a must unless your a He-Man and wrench set, plyer or needle nose will do. I assumed being 2003 your rotor never have been turn and i recommend every time you change your bakes is good idea to have your rotor turn. reason is it will make your pad last lot longer, removed any vibration and better even wear on the pad and eliminate any squealing although is not necessary to do so. make sure you get extra break fluid to bleed the brakes. get your self 5 feet long smallest vacum rubber hoses and a glass jar to bleed your brake fluid in. the rubber vacum hose you going to use to fit on to the bleeding nipple and run the other end of line to your the glass jar to save the brake fluid when you bleed the brakes. when removing caliper, check inspect make sure the rubber seals around your piston look good and not crack or deteriorated. before applying new pad make sure you open the bleed valve to reduce the pressure by turning the bleed nipple counter clockwise and leave it open attach that rubber hoses to the nipple because you going to press on the piston back into it housing with the "C" clamp in order for new pad to fit. becareful not to damage the rubber seals around the piston. its going to take lots of effort to push that piston back in so be a bare with it if needs to. once the pad is back in make sure you keep the reservoir full with brake fluid and then bleed the brake. two people is a good idea to do brake. one will do the pumping the brake and holding it down and other will bleed the nipple. I bleed it 2-3 time will do the job. good luck!

SOURCE: GMC Envoy w/ code P0128

Start at $89 right off the bat just for diagnostics and then depending on what they find that is causing that fault, at LEAST one hour labor, plus parts....I would say $250 is a good ballpark figure....looking up your fault code now.

I have a 2003 GMC Envoy XL. I replaced the battery yesterday and when I started the car, the engine had a VERY rough idle, died a couple of times and then the SES light came on. I was told to drive the car...

When you disconnected the battery, the PCM (power control module) was reset to factory default. You can try driving it with several engine on/engine off cycles. Get it up to 50 mph each time so the computer can recognize the transmission operation also. Hope this helps.

Battery keeps failing

Have you had a charging system and battery test performed. Lead acid batteries are very fickle. A battery that is kept at a low charge (,11.7 volts) can and will eventually lose a cell (bad cell at test). I have rarely recovered these batteries. Your altenator needs to be load tested and the vehicle needs a drain test to complete the diagnosis of this problem.

You can keep throwing new batteries at this and will come up disappointed. If you have the original battery in the vehicle (ACDELCO) consider yourself lucky to get this many years out of it.

Most Auto Parts stores offer a free battery and altenator test while battery in vehicle.

Changed battery now loss of rpm when ac is on

Check your Belt Tensioner. If the Tensioner is Not Keeping the Belt Tight Enough It will not allow the Alternator to Charge the Battery and it will cause a Battery Drain and will Pull on the Electrical System.Please Rate my Response, I need all the Help That I can Get! Thanks!
