    Exhaust leak sound 2016 Suburban

    Welp I found the source of the leak and thank GOD it's not an exhaust manifold. There is a small clamp right before that weird flex joint thing and it's corroded and rusting out. There's a pretty substantial and growing leak there. Guess I gotta have someone cut and weld it up!

    Exhaust leak sound 2016 Suburban

    Hey guys, I've noticed that my truck has developed kind of an exhaust leak "ffft ffft ffft ffft ffft" sound on cold startup. It disappears within about a minute of warmup. It's coming from the driver's side undercarriage. I haven't gotten under the truck to look around yet. I say "developed"...

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    I don't want a loud muffler because I don't want my slick black beautiful Suburban to sound like Billy Joe Bob's '77 square body. What I DO want is just a tad bit of tone, something slightly more than the Cadillac-quiet stock muffler.

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    That's one I was considering. From what I've seen it's not much louder than stock, just changes the tone a little. Is that true?

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    Very nice, indeed! Congrats! I have the Range AFM disabler and have had zero issues. It does what it's supposed to do with absolutely zero drama. Plug it in and forget it's there. From what I found while researching it, the majority of people who have "issues" with them are buying them off...

    Tahoe PPV Deflector installed on 15 Suburban (shorter lower valance that comes on Police model)

    The price for this stupid little piece is absolute insanity. How stupid.

    Performance muffler welded in place of OEM

    Guys, I'm looking to purchase an aftermarket muffler. I am going to cut out the OEM muffler and flapper and weld in a replacement muffler. I have heard that the OEM pipe diameter at that point in the exhaust system is 2.75" which is weird. Can anyone confirm what size the pipe is on my 2016...

    DIY: Make 2015-2017 LS/LT headlights operate like a LTZ headlight (LED as DRL vice low beams)

    After you pull the white "cover" thing off the pins, look down at each pin and you will see black retainer tabs that hold each metal pin. You need to stick something small down in there and push the black retainer away from the metal pin while simultaneously pulling the pin/wire out the back of...

    DIY: Make 2015-2017 LS/LT headlights operate like a LTZ headlight (LED as DRL vice low beams)

    Apparently cmatt disappeared so I swapped the pins as Tylus suggested. Worked great, took a half hour tops. Perfect! Thanks Tylus!

    Daytime running lights

    Figured it out. Comes factory that way I guess, but thanks to CMATT on here I'm hopefully on the road to switching to the LED strip for my DRL's.

    DIY: Make 2015-2017 LS/LT headlights operate like a LTZ headlight (LED as DRL vice low beams)

    Hey CMATT, I emailed you about a harness. Hope you're doing OK and still producing these amid this virus nonsense. Has anyone talked to cmatt recently?

    Buying 2016 vs 2015 Suburban

    Yeah one main reason I can think of as to why one was traded in at 20K is the buffeting issue. Research that and check the truck well.

    Daytime running lights

    Can anyone tell me why, on my 2016 Suburban LT, the daytime running lights are the headlights and not the white LED strip? Pretty much every other K2 Suburban or Tahoe I see, the DRL's are the white LED strip but on mine, they come on as the headlights. And yes, I do have the LED strip - it...

    PPV Transmission vs Civilian

    Well...the Tahoe gets pushed pretty hard so the MPG sucks. Always. I think it said about 9 or 10 when I looked at it last. I think the Tahoe has 3.42 gears as well, while my Suburban has 3.08's. Kind of hard to compare the two really. The Tahoe is a different animal driven in a different way...

    PPV Transmission vs Civilian

    Every enhancement spelled out in that paragraph is unique to the PPV. So no, the civilian Tahoe is not calibrated the same way. I drive a 2015 PPV at work and a 2016 Suburban at home. They're close but the PPV calibration is ever so slightly more aggressive, in every way outlined in that blurb...

    Anyone Have A Referral / Recommendation for Transport / Shipped from Dallas / Spring to Cali?

    For what it's worth (and for future readers) I have used Montway Auto Transport with good results. They are a pretty well known broker. Montway was by far the most affordable choice I could find for shipping a vehicle from Connecticut to Central New York State, although I was a little...

    2017 Yukon..Vibrating sound coming from front left wheel?

    You never clarified which was "right". You could have changed the wrong hub. If the noise goes away when you turn the wheel left, it's the left hub. If it goes away when you turn the wheel right, it's the right hub. As far as the axle shafts go, surface rust on one and not on the other doesn't...

    Blend Doors

    Are blend doors a common issue on the 2015+ trucks? Man I stopped buying Jeeps and Dodges because of stupid blend doors please tell me this isn't an issue.

    Buffeting / Vibrations/ cabin ear pressure

    The way I understand it, a 2020 model would be no less likely to have the issue than a 2015. The issue is in the particular way the roof is attached to the vehicle, which hasn't changed at all since the first truck on this platform was built. As suggested, you'd probably notice it right off the...

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    Just installed some Husky 18231 Weatherbeater mats. The fit is superb and they are a nice mix of sturdy and supple in construction. They cover every necessary area and look great. Highly recommended.

    Anyone have experience with the "BG Transmission" fluid service?

    I agree. And I trust the local shop who offers the service, been going there for years and I'm friends with the owners. I just get concerned when people tell me "GM DOES NOT RECOMMEND FLUSHES!" To that I say...GM does not recommend disabling their stupid AFM system either but doing it made my...
