    2021 Yukon Denali trailer light issues

    On my 2018 F150, I had a "diagnostic" function like you describe - it would literally tell me that each light and function was working, or it would identify the problem. These Tahoes/Yukons do not do the same thing (at least as far as I can tell). Instead, the Tahoes/Yukons have the "Light Test"...

    2021 Yukon Denali trailer light issues

    First I would wiggle the plug some with someone watching the turn signal. If you get any response while doing this, you know it's an issue with the connection. If you know how to use a tester, that would be my next step on the truck. If it tests okay, you know you've got a trailer wiring issue...

    2021 GMC Yukon Denali Oil Burn

    What weight oil are you using? My oil consumption issues stopped when I switched to Amsoil and went up to a 0w-30 weight oil.

    No one else is having this issue?

    Driver side mirror issue

    Mods, I accidentally posted this in the wrong forum. If you would be so kind, I would greatly appreciate it if this thread were moved to the 2021 year Exterior forum. Or, feel free to delete and I can repost there. Thanks in advance.

    Driver side mirror issue

    I have a 2021 Tahoe High Country. I have the driver seat set to retract for exit and then move back into position for entry. For some strange reason, the truck has started moving my driver side mirror too (to the wrong position). I have tried resetting the mirror position (both the exit position...

    Oil consumption between changes

    Fair point. Most of what I read involves relatively low mileage failures, so hopefully I am not one of the statistics. I remain optimistic but, of course, time will tell.

    Oil consumption between changes

    I appreciate the information. I will keep running the best oil I can find (Amsoil) and using the appropriate fuel for my 6.2l (at least 91 octane) and will hope that this engine gives me nearly 200k plus thousand miles and is still running fine when I sell it, which is what happened with my last...

    2022 Denali oil comsumption

    My 2021 6.2L has 65K miles on it. I have had it since 26k miles and run Amsoil 0w-30 weight oil. It burns little to no oil between changes and that is with quite a bit of towing.

    Oil consumption between changes

    I appreciate the information. I see snow in your profile picture and assume you are somewhere up north. I am down in Florida. My mechanic here believes many of the engine failures (in all makes and models) his shop sees these days are due to running 0w-20 oil in our hot Florida temperatures...

    Oil consumption between changes

    I'm late to this thread, but both of my most recent Tahoes (a 2015 5.3 and now a 2021 6.2) stopped burning oil when I switched from 0w-20 to a heavier 0w-30 Amsoil.

    Here's a new one - transmission

    This may be antiquated knowledge, but I was always taught to keep a transmission around 2k rpms when towing anything heavy and/or with wind resistance. This is to keep the engine where it is making power and to keep the transmission from hunting for gears and burning up. I tend to think this is...

    Do you use your rear-view mirror in camera-mode?

    I do, particularly when the rear cargo area is full and blocking the normal mirror. However, I found on a long drive that there is some video fatigue on my eyes. After about 8 hours of driving with the rear camera on, I felt my eyes getting tired and felt relief when I switched to normal mirror...

    Looking for sunroof part

    Thanks. What sight did you get that off of? I think I'm actually looking for #8. It is the spring loaded piece that holds the air deflector in the upright position when the roof is open that I'm looking for.
