2004 GMC Yukon Denali 6.0L from North America
Summary:
A decent older 04 rich SUV that can still tow decently
Faults:
Transfer case, valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket, rear main seal, water pump, alternator, all four O2 sensors, knock sensors, and transmission.
General Comments:
Bought this Yukon to tow my travel trailer. I got it with lower mileage for the year thinking that I would have a few years before any major issues would arise. It was more so the lack of maintenance from the previous owners that I got stuck fixing in the short time of owning it.
Positives, the 6.0 lq4 is an amazing power plant in these GMT800 rigs. The comfort is still amazing being that the Yukon is from 2004. Power memory seats, heated front and rear seats. Power folding mirrors and a decent sounding Bose radio. It tows amazing which is what I wanted in the long run. All GMT800 Denali's are AWD and honestly I haven't missed having 4WD like in my older Jeeps.
In the long drawn out story, these things are cheap to maintain if you're handy with a wrench, but I wouldn't recommend it if you need to go to the mechanic for every little issue.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have a 2004 Denali. One problem; speedo went out during warranty...otherwise gas, oil, window cleaner, soap, water, tires, K&N air filter, wiper blades, insurance, registration. It's been good.
