    Heated O2 Sensor Readings?

    Well, we got 40 miles in 2 days and the light is back on. Same O2 sensor (bank 1 position 2) but instead of lean now it threw a rich error. What a PIA. I want my remote start function to work now that it's winter and snowed yesterday. Fortunately it doesn't affect drivability.

    Got to use the Tahoe as an "ambulance "

    We had a family of red tails with chicks in a tall pine across the street until the mother didn't come back one day. The male searched for days but apparently was not knowledgeable in feeding. A couple from the local raptor rescue group came by and got up to the nest to check on the chicks but...

    Driveshaft solved

    Curious if there was an issue with the U joints that could have contributed. When we had differential work done at about 100,000, the mechanic said one of the U joints was stiff to move.

    Heated O2 Sensor Readings?

    After resetting the light yesterday, wife made a short trip to the grocery store this morning and light was back on when she got back. I warmed it up in the driveway for about 15 minutes after another reset then took a 25 mile ride, including a short stop in the middle, with speed as you noted...

    Heated O2 Sensor Readings?

    Suggestion noted. How long would it take to throw a code? As I mentioned, I drove a bit after replacing the original suspected O2 sensor before get the code back. I reset it again today after rechecking the connector and drove it about 10 minutes and so far no code but I expect it might be...

    Heated O2 Sensor Readings?

    Moral of the video is go for the obvious first; don't trust the new part.

    Heated O2 Sensor Readings?

    I chased down why our remote start system was not functioning and as someone advised it was the CEL that related to one of the O2 sensors (Bank 1 position 2, downstream drivers side). I swapped in a new oem sensor, cleared the code and cured the remote start issue. Unfortunately after about 30...

    OEM Leather Seatcovers?

    Thanks Thanks, I looked around there but don't see them there. They are 2 tone leather, brown and black and came as oem on the truck.

    Remote Start Stopped Working on '08 Z71

    Today our oem remote start feature stopped working. There is some noise in the cabin, like a switch or circuit, maybe a bit of buzz, trying for maybe 3 seconds to work but then it stops without running the starter. The parking lights flash once. I checked the settings on the DIC and the feature...

    OEM Leather Seatcovers?

    Where would I source oem leather seat covers? We have what seems to be a rare chestnut (?) brown and black seats that we love but the edges are wearing through; short people tall truck syndrome.

    Pirelli AS plus 3 vs Michelin Defenders LTX M/S

    I can speak to having Michelin LTX, including Defenders since 2003 on more than one Tahoe. I really regretted when I was talked into something other than Michelins and always went back. Pricey, yes, but quiet, long lasting, comfy and great in the snow without reverting to 4wd. And if you watch...

    Rear Differential Whine

    You'd think differentials would be worked out by this time in the evolution of vehicles. Then again, I had a Jeep GC that had three rear ends in 40,000 miles before I gave up completely on any future Chrysler product.

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    Seems to be a heavy vehicle for that but then again Tesla developed a Tractor Trailer rig, so maybe weight isn't critical.

    Goodbye

    Tahoe guy here but a friend, who went from Tahoe to Explorer and now Hyundai Palisade thinks his Palisade is the best he's had. No problems.

    Tahoe won't restart after getting gas - Not the usual issue

    In my lifetime I once got gas loaded with water. Almost immediate "flame out". I learned to only go to very busy stations to avoid that headache again.

    What's Everyone's Favorite Tire Choice for their Tahoe?

    For road, sand and snow, Michelin Defender LTX all the way. They are expensive but are quiet and perform much better and last longer than the alternatives. I once was talked into a look alike and regretted it until I replaced them.

    3" catback exhaust upgrade. Surface treatment questions.

    If a magnet sticks to the metal then it will rust. Gas grill makers get away with that misconception quite a bit. There are many different grades of stainless steel and the word "stainless" can be misleading. I have a 1/2" thick book that I needed to read to spec the proper series material for a...

    2023 Wagoneer L build and price up

    We've owned 7 Jeeps and after the company sale we swore them off when the last Grand Cherokee got 3 rear ends in the first 40,000 miles and was due for another when we got rid if it. Never again. Tahoes in our driveway ever since.
