    Tool to disable tpms all together

    I just had the 3rd set of TPMS sensors installed in September 2020 when I bought new tires for my 2005 Yukon XL at 185K miles. When I replaced the sensors in 2012 when one of them failed, the system reset automatically after about 3 miles of driving. When I bought the new tires in September...

    2015 Tahoe w/ 66k miles - just had to replace transmission

    My 4L60 in my 2005 Yukon XL 5.3 went at 81K. I had a GM Reman installed at the dealer. They offered a Service-for-Life if I brought it back to them for service. At 135K I took it back to them because the 3rd/4th gear package failed. I know others in the area (Washington DC/MD/VA) who have had...

    Advice on 2021 Tahoe, 5.3 V8 vs. Duramax 3.0

    What does the average oil change on the diesel cost compared to the gas engine? I understand there are typically multiple filters that have to be replaced, and that the diesel requires a higher grade and more quarts of oil than for a gas engine. Is that true, and how does that affect the...

    Zach’s Slow Build

    I have a 2005 Yukon XL, and had the usual failures of the stepper motors in the speedo, and oil pressure gauges. I sent it off to Dr. Speedometer, and they replaced all of the stepper motors. Fred Burge is Dr. S, and he asked if I wanted the transmission temperature gauge added. It was an...

    Is this vehicle TOO big?

    My first GM in a while was a 2001 Suburban. Traded a 1997 Ram 1500 Sport 4WD pickup on it. I loved the Sub. I traded it on a new 2005 Yukon XL SLT. A coworker and I went on a 300 mile trip to a customer site. He had a 2003 Tahoe at the time. 50 miles into the trip, he noted that my Yukon XL rode...

    Wife overheated the 2005. . .

    One thing I have seen on this forum is a recommendation to obtain stainless steel replacements for those plastic (nylon?) tees. I have a 2005 Yukon with 189K miles, so I am probably running on borrowed time, but I will get the stainless tees when the time comes.

    Looking for the benefits

    Is there a decoder ring available for this forum? I keep seeing acronyms like NBA, nnbs, and engines, etc. that I am not familiar with. Can I get a little help here? Thanks!

    Wife hates my new 2006 Yukon XL Denali

    I bought my 2005 Yukon XL new. At about 20k miles, my son (an ASE Master Tech +) told me to leave the truck with him and he would replace the intermediate steering shaft under warranty. I'm at 185k miles now, and I've never had another problem with that. The 4L60 transmission is another...

    Limited slip going out

    Is it costing more than a reasonable replacement would? I would and have fixed my 2005 Yukon XL Southern Comfort conversion. New trans, new TC operator, new MAF, new accelerator control module, all in the last 2 years. A new replacement vehicle would be 72 to 75K. I'll keep repairing mine.

    2011 Yukon..Transmission shot... worth replacing?

    I have a 2005 Yukon XL with the 5.3 Z code engine and 4WD with the 4L60E trans. It showed a fair amount of metallic material in the pan at 82K miles on a fluid change. The dealer recommended a rebuild, in-shop, with a 90-day warranty for 3K$, or a GM Reman trans with a 36-month warranty for...
