    I think the dealership destroyed my engine

    It seems crazy that they wouldn't put oil back in it but I guess you never know. When I do oil changes on my vehicles I feel like I check the dipstick about 14 times before I'm satisfied to call the job done. I always assume the oil change guy at the dealership is the low man on the totem pole...

    Rear suspension sits low

    These new rigs are made for taking your kids to school and picking up the groceries in style. There’s nothing off-road worthy about them with that independent rear suspension setup. Sure the z71 and at4 come with an “off-road appearance” package and a little lift but that don’t change a thing in...

    2021 Tahoe LT Duramax mpg/mpd increase after maintenance and software upgrade

    This is true. I pretty routinely see that screen say 495 to 505 miles available after a fuel up on my xl with a 5.3 and it does not get that many miles no matter what you do. Those numbers drop almost immediately once you start driving. I've never actually calculated it but we probably get a...

    Can chrome mirror caps be painted over to body color (summit white)?

    Professionally painted those would hold up just fine, it's all about the prep and what products they use. I got a quote from a bodyshop to paint our chrome SLT grill and was concerned about it holding up but they assured me it would be good to go. That said I highly doubt you will get a...

    2023 Yukon Denali 6.2L, Dead at 3600 miles

    THIS. When I installed the black grill/color matched surrround on our '21 it was quite a pain just popping off the front bumper cover. Tugging and pulling on it and feeling like it was going to break the whole time. Took me a couple hours to get the job done and I consider myself decently...

    Black Grille options?

    Amazing what stealerships can get away with charging. I did a chrome delete (part paint, part wrap) using a local vinyl shop and it was around $1200. That included getting some factory paint and color matching my rear GMC logo and the trim strip on the fixed running boards. I'm sure most of your...

    New 2023 Yukon XL

    Looks good. I personally like those denali rims just the way they are on that vehicle but to each their own. I think they add a nice contrast to the overall look of the vehicle while black rims just kind of disappear

    Car Wash

    I only take vehicles I don't really care about through the carwash, like my farmtruck. I'd rather have my yukon be filthy than take it through one of those scratch tunnels. Handwash or nothing for me

    Splash Guards with Powered Running Boards

    Agreed. Their floor mats are junk, at least the 2nd row ones that roll up on the edges

    Level/Lift 2021Tahoe LS 4x4

    I was gonna say the stock tires are basically a 33 so should fit just fine with no lift

    2022 Tahoe High Country - Lift vs Level

    This makes no sense to me whatsoever. There’s a bazillion people driving around with level kits with no problems. I drove a 2011 suburban with a 2.5” level for nearly ten years with a grand total of ZERO repairs caused from the level kit. I expect a similar experience from our ‘21 with the RC...

    New guy. Wanting to buy a denali

    Although I’ve never had one to me it seems all you ever hear about Toyotas is how reliable they are and how much their owners love them. Seems to be a pretty good reputation to have. That new sequoia looks dope. GM has always been known for weird electrical gremlins and this new model seems to...

    Splash Guards with Powered Running Boards

    I put weathertechs on our slt (fixed running boards) and it made a MASSIVE difference in how clean the vehicle stays now. Was filthy all the time without them with mud and crap shot up all over the sides. Took about 10 minutes to install front and rear

    Truck died

    Weird how this doesn't happen to the '21 trucks. I remote start almost every time the yukon isn't in the garage and never had a problem. Like to get them seats and steering wheel heating up a bit before I hop in

    2022 Yukon driver side floor soaked!

    Bummer deal. This happened to ours as well but never had the overhead leak. The TSB that extends the drain tubes was the fix ours needed. That was around 3k miles (didn't rain here for the first couple months we had it) and the yukon now has 22k, still dry

    Real Life MPG 5.3 / 6.2

    Bringing this thread back from the dead. Our '21 yukon xl (5.3 4wd on stock size ridge grappler tires) is now at 22,500 miles and the lifetime MPG is dead on at 17.5 just like it's been basically since new. I did a 235 mile trip today and came back with 20.2 mpg according to the dash readout but...

    stumble/shake when letting off gas pedal...

    My trip today was around 235 miles, mostly freeway above 70mph and I just can't tell if it's acting up or not. On the freeway it's totally fine but around town I still feel a slight shutter here and there but certainly not all the time, or as bad as it was doing it when I posted this. Maybe it...

    stumble/shake when letting off gas pedal...

    I dumped in a bottle of Lucas injector cleaner and installed a K&N panel filter (stock filter looked like it was brand new) the other day but haven't really driven the vehicle much yet. Will be making a couple hour round trip this morning so should get a good feel if anything has changed or not

    2022 Tahoe w- 7950 miles dead in the road

    This sounds about right these days. When ours was down it sat untouched out front of the service department for a week and I finally stopped in to see if they had any info and all they could tell me was "a work order has been dispatched to a mechanic." Fast forward a couple days and my wife...

    Anyone Running Kings or ICONS?

    And here I’ve been for the last year and a half thinking our slt is by far the best riding vehicle I’ve ever been in. Every time I ride in another vehicle I find myself thinking it rides like dogshit compared to the Yukon. Different strokes for different folks I suppose the plush smooth ride of...

    2022 Suburban/Blinking CEL

    We recently had the fuel pump control module replaced on our yukon with 21K miles on it. Took a week for the service department to get to it but once they did it was diagnosed and fixed in a couple days. That was our 2nd warranty visit to the dealer since buying it new but overall I believe...

    Shaking in new '22 Yukon. Just breaking it in or a real problem?

    It wasn’t even so much stopping traction was bad it was how they would hydroplane with any amount of standing water on the roadway. Heavy rains were terrible, Yukon was shimmying all over the road. I thought it was all in my head at first but after changing over to the ridge graps it affirmed...

    According to the paperwork we got it back from the dealer exactly 3 weeks ago

    Shaking in new '22 Yukon. Just breaking it in or a real problem?

    From my experience what you've heard is not correct. They do not ride hard/rough in any way. I've got around 17K miles on them and they are smooth and quiet (not car tire quiet obviously like the lx20s) but for how aggressive they look they are not loud at all. As far as wear goes only time will...
