    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    I may just do that. I change my mind every 15 minutes or so... Today I'm leaning towards a new/reman engine. At least I get a zero mile engine out of the deal, but of course the cost goes up. I need to shop around. Jasper has an AFM delete engine option as does a couple others. With install...

    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    I'm still trying to decide what to do. I can afford it fortunately, so it's not a save up the money issue. It's more that I'm a rather frugal person :) Checking around and figuring the hours to change them all, the quoted price is not out of line. OTOH, if I'm going to spend that much I'd like...

    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    The only problem with replacing one lifter is most of the cost is in the teardown and build back, so might as well at least replace the 8 on that side. Of course if I did it myself the cost to replace one is really low. Looking at used engines, 5-8K for the most part, depending on miles, plus...

    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    OK, a few days pass by, no luck so I took it to the shop I use when I don't wish to work on a car myself. Bad lifter. So, options. #1 - The shop will do the entire job, replace all lifters, valve guides, valve job, head bolts, gaskets, tuneup, etc for $7400. The last three cars I bought were...

    Well, I guess since I've posted pics of the "old" ones I should at least put up a pic of the "new" one, where I dropped my dislike of common colors and just got a black one...

    Thanks swathdiver! I've been a surf fisherman since birth, 71 years ago :) Mostly along the Outer Banks of NC but occasionally in SC, Georgia, and Florida. I looked for that green on a well kept Suburban withing a decent distance of my home for over a year. Easy to find a black, white, or...

    First problem after one year on 2018 Yukon XL Denali

    I'm hoping it's not internal... (don't we all) The wire from the coil to the plug looked good. I'll do some swapping tomorrow. Thanks!

    "Did you modify any of the trucks in any way? Ever take them off-roading and such? How are the older ones holding up after 20 years and 300K miles?" swathdiver, the Suburban and Avalanche are holding up really well. Both purchased used, the Sub with 200k and the Avalanche with 230K. Both had...

    Left an Intro: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/new-to-me.147837/ Now for my problem - Driving back from the coast last week at 75-80 on the interstate my adaptive cruise shut off.

    Hello I purchased a 2018 Yukon XL Denali with 150K just a year ago. It replaces my more aged fleet - 2004 Suburban Z/71 with 315K and a 2006 Avalanche with 305K. Still have those two but will probably sell the Suburban soon. Love the car. I've had Jeep Grand Wagoneers (2), Suburbans (3), a...
