    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    No high speed cooling fans?

    Well got Mjolnir back from the shop and seems like all components were working fine but it had about half the refrigerant in the system it was supposed to. Supposed to have 2lbs and it only had .96 lbs… They leak tested it and no leaks so not sure what’s going on there so we’ll keep an eye on...

    2017 Yukon Denali Consideration

    Yeah the 15 -16 8 speeds from what I’ve found don’t necessarily go out but they just shift really wierd. It’s like the programming is never right. We are still fighting isn’t ours in the 15. The 17s still have the 8 speed but I know a few people with 17s that don’t have the shifting issues. The...

    TRT, Tow Rig Tuesday...show what ya tow

    Current Yukon pulls “Ellie” our 2018 Apex Nano 193BHS… Which used to be pulled by our 2005 Yukon “Baymax” Ellie is about 5,000 lbs when fully loaded. The Denali pulls it a lot easier with 125 more hop and twice the gears.

    2016 Tahoe Rough Ride

    Yeah I kind of regret not buying a warranty on our 15 Denali… we’ve put almost $3k into it in the last year with shocks/struts, AC and transmission.

    About to purchase a 2015 Escalade Premium

    Drive it before you buy it and really pay attention to the transmission behavior. Make sure you get to start it cold and drive it first. The issues with that transmission is that it will have a hard 1-2 shift after first starting it. Also you want to look for surging between 2-3 or 3-4. Also pay...

    2015 Suburban Stuck in 4WD

    There is a TSB for the 4X4 switch on the 15+ that it auto engages. It’s a simple reprogram. Not sure if yours is under warranty but if it hasn’t been done they may cover it at the dealer. Google bulletin 14616.

    Axle Ratio/Towing information is difficult to grok. Would love some help with my 2020 Tahoe.

    If you don’t have the integrated trailer brake to the left of the steering wheel than you have the 3.08 rear end. Im pretty sure the only way to get the 3.42 rear with the 5.3 is with the trailering package which came with the trailer brake controller. Looks like the 3.08 ratio maxes at 6600...

    8spd trans fluid - free

    What do you think of the 10 speed compared to your older 8 speed?

    Luft Meister brand

    I’d agree, if you want to keep the MRC then just swap with OEM which you can do one at a time for the failing components. If you go with something else you really should do all 4. For us we decided keeping the MRC wasn’t worth it (my wife’s car) and bought the highest quality non MrC ones we could

    Luft Meister brand

    I've seen a few people put these on and like them but also saw some concerning quality issues in some reviews. To my understanding, they are not an actually MRC Shock if that's what you are looking for. I think they are supposed to fool the MRC system and they are just a traditional shock/strut...

    Burb shakes when braking - INTERMITTENT

    Just found this and our 15 Denali 8 speed does this too intermittently. We notice it when I go to decelerate from 80 like for an off-ramp example or if we drive over the pass to Reno and are on a downhill slope. Super random and it will happen the first time I apply the brakes and then not...

    Did the magneride delete with Arnott setup, here is a full run down

    thanks for the tips on the sway bars. I might look into that down the road, but the handling is still confident and agreeable. It's just not as sporty as it was with the magneride. We have the 20" wheels for what its worth. Might be more noticeable if you have the 22s. A few more days driving...

    No high speed cooling fans?

    Yeah ours don’t seem to sound like they are spinning to fast…. When we remote start now and let it sit for a couple of minutes the air is not blowing cold. It’s just barely cooler…

    2016 Tahoe Rough Ride

    Hey Rockerking, I think the stiffer ride is characteristic of the magrides, although I have heard that there is a softward update that seems to smooth things out on the 2015-2016 models. Might reach out to your dealer and/or do a search on the TSB number and start with that update. Also check...

    No high speed cooling fans?

    I've read a ton about the fans staying on and the faulty temp sensor. Maybe it needs a recharge or has a small leak then... I just can't find much information as to why the fans wouldn't kick on into high speed. they kick on and off with the A/C on and off if I test that with the engine being...

    No high speed cooling fans?

    Oh wow didn’t realize that. So what would trigger the high speed? It seems like the fans should be drawing more air while sitting. It had the previous condenser replacement around 65k that was required on all these models.

    No high speed cooling fans?

    Hey it’s been really hot here the last few weeks and noticed that the Denali A/C is struggling anytime we are stopped and won’t cool down when you first start it till you get moving. Checking it out yesterday and I don’t think the high speed on the cooling fans is engaging. if I remember right...

    New Guy in Norther Cali

    Hey just introducing myself from Lincoln, CA. Been a long time lurker on this site and thank you all for the wisdom and I hope to contribute! We had a 2005 Yukon SLT for many years that absolutely loved and finally sold last year and picked up a 2015 Yukon Denali. Our 05 was rock solid and...

    Did the magneride delete with Arnott setup, here is a full run down

    Hey long time lurker here, but I've gleaned quite a bit of wisdom on these forums and must say thanks. Time to engage and offer some of my own wisdom. Just wanted to share my experience with doing the Magneride delete on our 2015 Yukon Denali since that seems to be a common topic on here and I...
