Have you checked the engine oil level and the coolant level? Is the noise a rather low pitched sound, coming from the bottom end? Or is it a high pitched noise, like a ball point pen clicking rapidly? ---

What codes is the vehicle showing? What repairs were just done? Why were those repairs done (What was the original concern?) What engine is in this 2007 Yukon? Does the knocking go away as the engine warms up, or stay all the time?
