    Air Suspension Leak Down after Sitting 2 Weeks

    Dumb question… 1) Do dealers get paid by GM for inspecting the problem? 2) Do dealers get paid a lower hourly rate for warranty repair? It just seems like if I bring something in under warranty I get the working as designed. No warranty they’ll gladly charge me for new parts, needed or not.

    Memory seat

    Ha!! Now that I read it again you’re right. I’m not allowed to say what position 1 is.

    Memory seat

    My problem was my seat would get stuck in position 1, my 5’1” wife’s and I’m 6’2”. I could get it to work sometimes by reaching under the seat from behind and wiggling the wires. For me the connections got boogered up from back seat passenger big feet.

    Take it up the GM chain of command until it’s fixed.

    Replace or reupholster drivers seat - 2017 Tahoe LT

    Thanks for the correction on the battery. I took the seat out on my wife’s old BMW and had to reset the airbags bc I didn’t disconnect.

    Tired front struts, already replaced the rear with Bilsteins (not available for the front)

    Did mine with no issues. I did the loan a tool at advance and got 2 sets. I used 3 on each one.

    Replace or reupholster drivers seat - 2017 Tahoe LT

    Agree with Joe. Just make sure you disconnect the battery before you take the seat out.

    Low Blinker Fluid?

    Or at the oil change place. Be sure to demand they refill it.

    Oxygen Sensors

    Get under it and look at the exhaust near the engine. Follow that down and you’ll see one on each side. Your rig may have been modified and you have 2 exhaust pipes without sensors.

    Curb Rash Black Wheels

    Lots of good advice here. If the metal has deep scratches use any of the methods you’d like but do 2 or 3 light coats to fill in the scratches. You’ll notice it every time you drive it.

    Do seat blower fans really need to be programmed?

    And unfortunately it’s a common failure. I believe anything that comes on by itself is going to need programming. On the upside look on YT for ways to get around the dealer.

    Brake noise

    As Ron stated a squeak isn’t bad. Is your brake pad indicator showing service is needed?

    Onstar Not Working

    Same here but on my 23 Sierra. Pushing the button does nothing. The only help from calling OnStar was take it to the dealer. Anyone have success with a reset? If so how was it done? My other gizmos work fine.

    Memory seat

    I got one off eBay for my 07 and it works great. If you move the wires under the seat does it act right? You might also check the wires under the driver sill and the bottom of the B pillar for good connections.

    Air Suspension Leak Down after Sitting 2 Weeks

    You want that to happen so they don’t throw parts at it and claim it’s fixed, only to find the opposite.

    RWD 2019 chevy tahoe in snow ?

    Lots of guys have 2 sets. One reason is they don’t want their good wheels to get exposed to the salt. How much snow are we talking about? Here in Virginia a lot of snow is once or twice getting 3 inches so I can’t relate.

    Rear coil spring choice

    Welcome to the forum from Virginia. What you don’t want is springs that come with the Z55 rear auto leveling. They’re too soft. Did you look in the ppv section here? I’m sure some have done what you’ve looking to do.

    Pateena

    It’s ok on a vehicle old enough to have accumulated the rust and paint fade in patina. I think it looks silly on any other rig or when they put 7 coats of clear to make it shiny. I’ve never seen shiny rust. Hopefully the one you saw was a wrap that can be removed.

    2018 taho 5/7 drop questions

    Welcome to the forum from Virginia. Lots of guys here with lowered rigs. It’s hard to say what kind of ride you’ll get without knowing how you’re planning to achieve the drop and if you plan to keep the stock suspension features like self leveling or MRC.

    Tahoe 2010 LTZ OEM Struts

    I just used what came with them. My connections and top assembly was fine though I did repaint metal parts. The kit came with new top nuts.

    2004 Tahoe Driver Door Module Troubles

    It’s really amazing how many parts are either bad out of the box or fail quickly. Good job doing your due diligence. Hopefully Dorman will refund you for the bad ones. Many places don’t have people that actually know their products well.

    Tahoe 2010 LTZ OEM Struts

    When I did this swap I went round and round about getting the strut spring combo since I was doing the work. I ended up getting just struts and borrowing a compressor from Advance.
