Shop OEM GMC Canyon Parts at ChevyPartsGiant

The GMC Canyon underwent two generational changes since its 2004 debut to demonstrate its engineering and performance development. The GMC Canyon initial design used GMT355 platform foundations to create a front-engine and four-wheel-drive vehicle system which offers excellent control in multiple conditions ready for street driving and off-road exploration. The standard GMC Canyon base engine uses a 2.8L I4 powertrain and the Z71 package supplies a 3.5L I5 engine to provide greater off-roading performance. The Canyon utilizes an automatic six-speed transmission instead of its previous manual six-speed transmission because it improves performance capability and alters the driving experience. Towing features in the GMC Canyon stand out due to its engine options which unite gas V6 with diesel four-cylinder engines along with customizable choices for users. GMC Canyon exists in several styles and its regular cab size reaches 190 inches with a 126-inch wheelbase whereas its extended cab reaches 205 inches with the same wheelbase length. Multiple airbags together with other safety elements enhance the vehicle's driving experience. Since GMC owners benefit from using genuine parts for their GMC Canyon because such parts fulfill factory requirements after undergoing thorough testing which makes the vehicle perform well and last longer.

GMC Canyon issues group into engine combustion, HVAC electrical, and evaporative emissions systems. In the engine bay, the Canyon may misfire, idle roughly, or hesitate during light throttle. Worn valve seats, often labeled valve deats in some catalogs, reduce compression and invite misfire codes on the Canyon after hot soaking. Repair can require a remanufactured cylinder head, valve reconditioning, and new stem seals. On the Canyon, ignition and fuel trims should be checked to confirm cause before head work. In the HVAC circuit, a failed blower motor resistor removes one or more blower speeds. Inspect the control switch, check connectors for heat damage, then install a quality resistor. On the Canyon evaporative system, a loose or worn gas cap often sets a check engine light. Replace the gas cap, inspect the filler neck seal, and complete a full drive cycle. Across these systems, GMC diagnostics use scan data, compression tests, and smoke testing to verify leaks. GMC service practice also calls for verifying grounds and battery voltage during HVAC checks. Finish with a warm road test so the Canyon shows a stable idle and consistent airflow. These steps help the GMC run cleanly, hold speed, and deliver reliable cabin comfort every day.

  • Q: How to replace the alternator (LLV/LLR) (2.9L, 3.7L) on GMC Canyon?
    A: To remove the generator (LLV/LLR) (2.9L, 3.7L), start with disconnecting the battery negative cable. Removing the Drive Belt and lifting the vehicle to a level whereby you can have access to pass the A/C Compressor through the wheelhouse. There is no need to vacate the a/c refrigerant when you can get the left front wheel and the left wheelhouse liner out, then loosen the A/C Compressor connection from a bracket. Remove the A/C Compressor mounting bolt, while leaving the upper mounting bolt with the A/C Compressor. Lower the vehicle and move the protective boot from the generator output bat terminal to allow access. Disconnect the generator lead from the generator and disconnect the wiring harness connector; detach the generator output bat terminal nut. Disconnect the three mounting bolts of the generator and engine lift bracket to provide space for the generator. Shift the A/C Compressor toward the front to facilitate generator removal, and then remove the generator off the engine. For installation, stand the generator to the engine and install the engine lift bracket. Mount the generator bolts and tighten them in a sequence of 50 nm (37 lb ft). Attach the generator lead to the generator and mount the generator output bat terminal nut into 20 nm (15 lb ft). Push on the protective boot to the generator output bat terminal and attach the wiring harness connector to the generator. Lift up the vehicle again to align the A/C Compressor to the engine then install the A/C Compressor mounting bolts and secure with 50 nm (37 lb ft).

Reduce vehicle, set up the Drive Belt and lastly rejoin the battery negative cable.
  • Q: How to replace the steering wheel on GMC Canyon?
    A: The first step to replacing a Steering Wheel includes setting front wheels in direct alignment while locking the Steering Column with anti-rotation pin (J 42640) through the lower Steering Column trim cover access. Make alignment marks between the Steering Wheel and Steering Shaft after removing the inflatable restraint Steering Wheel module. When loosening the Steering Wheel nut for two complete turns use your fingers to gently pull the wheel from the Steering Column before removing the nut. Guide the electrical connectors (1,3) through the Steering Wheel while removing it in a damage-free manner. Before Steering Wheel installation maintain your front wheels in their direct center position. Position the new Steering Wheel adjacent to the Steering Shaft while orienting the arrow at 12 o'clock then check for correct meshing of wheel teeth with Steering Shaft teeth. When reusing the original Steering Wheel position it properly according to the removal marks while verifying that electrical connectors (1,3) remain unpinched. Screw in the Steering Wheel nut then torque it to 35 nm (26 lb ft). As the final step install the inflatable restraint Steering Wheel module while removing the anti-rotation pin (J 42640).
