I have a 2004 GMC Yukon Denali with the 6.0l it started running ruff and has a severe lack of power the check engine light came on once it started getting worse p0300 (i believe that's it random misfire may be off a couple numbers) detected there is also a rattle in the exhaust that started just before i don't know if there related or its just coincidence that it rattles now that the engine is ruff and im just now hearing it since it stops when u rev it my main question is if it just needs a tune up wouldn't it know what cyl was misfiring

SOURCE: '04 GMC Yukon Denali Check Engine Light

Did u put in fuel shortly before the light came on? I own 2 service centers & the most common situation with "Check Engine" lights are because the fuel cap wasn't re-installed or not tightened. When you refuel make sure it "clicks" when putting back on. We don't charge for a "Code Reading" but a dealer will, don't go there. Go, like the others suggested. If it is the fuel cap & you re-install it correctly, the light will go off after a short drive. Good Luck. PS-Don't panic when the "Check Engine" light comes on unless it blinks, if that happens don't drive. PSS-RE: Murray's, Auto-Zone.......If it's a "Code" (the reader will give a #) the code book will tell you the problem. PSSS-Some1 please have Troy W's Mommy & Daddy take away his keyboard. Just because you can put together a "Lego" car doesn't make you a master mechanic. You only repeated what we said except you have a "Napoleon" complex against any1 plugging something in to a vehicle. It's the same as plugging in a light @ home. In conjunction with "kinder" nine out of ten time in my experience it usually is the oxygen sensor(s) which would be about right with the year model

SOURCE: Lack of smooth gear operation, rattling on front suspension over ruff surface

half shafts can cause a lot of problems with shifting and driving. but you could be loosing the third gear syncronizer.

SOURCE: rattling sound in steering (at low speeds)

I sounds like you need to grease the intermediate shaft. GM sells a kit that consists of a plug and a bag of grease for around $18. It has been a few years since I bought it so the price could have went up. They also offer an update shaft for around $100. I am nearly 100% sure this is your problem. I have a 03 Yukon and have done it 3 times in 120,000 miles.

There are a few other posibilities, but they are not so cheap. The next logical problem could be the power steering pump or the valve in the gear box.

Shift but won't go into gear just revs
https://www.transmissionrepaircostguide.com/topic/shift-but-wont-go-into-gear-just-revs/

I have had vehicles where the speed sensor, MAF, MAP and throttle body did not let them shift as they should but the vehicle did shift. I have put several links above. Just to make sure if you have check engine light find out the code. Make sure you check transmission fluid with engine on and in park, emergency brake on at normal operating temperature. ( May sound bad but I have had to tell people above 30 about this and they said it was the first they heard of it). I will say the thing which stands out to me is check shifter cable. Check fuses. I did see a link which suggested brakes locked up but I assume the truck is not even trying to move.

Go to your local parts store,(Advance Auto, Napa, Autozone) and get the codes read for free and they can help somewhat of what the code means. If they can't tell you what the code means tell us what the code is and we can help from there.

04' GMC YUKON DENALI CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON & RUNS FINE????

Go to an Advance or Auto Zone and ask them to read your fault codes. This is a service they will do for free in hopes of selling you a replacement part. You likely have a faulty sensor that is causing the light to come on. Good Luck! I hope this is very helpful!
