    So I changed the oil today and a touch over 5.5 qts came out, so a) the guys at the new shop (who claimed it was almost two quarts low) might not be the brightest, and b) the dipstick is definitely "approximate". Lol. Not too worried. Was definitely darker than I wanted to see after only 2k...

    Also not really happy with how dirty the oil is after only 2k miles; not sure how well the oil was maintained under previous ownership but I'm going to give it a couple more cycles to flush crap out of it and if it's still getting dirty prematurely I'll send a sample off for testing.

    Shop raised a red flag about my oil levels while doing their "complimentary inspection" yesterday, said that I was close to 2 quarts low. Changed the oil about 2000 miles ago (first oil change under our ownership) and I know for a fact I put 6 qts in it. However, I admittedly forgot to check...

    Fair. After I do the plugs/wires/air filter/shocks etc. I'll pay a bit closer attention. Doesn't seem like I'm too far off; the lower end of the range I gave has usually been in colder weather with a fair amount of idle time and all of the aforementioned parts needing replaced (as well as...

    Yea, like I said I've lurked here for the short while I've owned it and this forum has been a blessing...with an answer to pretty much every stupid little question or curiosity I've had without even having to post (until now, lol). In my experience most major chassis gens from the major...

    Yup, those were the first things I checked. I've lurked here for a little bit and have seen some pretty gnarly melted connectors, haha. Fuse is good and so is the connector; no melting or scorching at all (VERY slight bit of discoloration around that one pin, but nothing concerning). The...

    Thanks all! Yea; that pretty much confirms my suspicions...two out of the three places are either trying to fleece me or are looking at the wrong parts (or both). And the Chevy dealership, while not outrageous price-wise, seems just...incompetent. Lol. I'll just order the Dorman compressor...

    Hey there all; greetings from Wyoming! Wife and I were recently gifted (yes, really lol) a 2010 Tahoe LTZ after our 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid blew a motor. Almost perfect condition, currently has about 135k on it, barely a scratch on or in it. We absolutely love it. A couple light bulbs, wiper...
