    Remote Start Troubleshooting

    Sorry to lead astray with rear defrost…. Tech2 map may get you there. If you download it to a desktop PC you can search with a keyword by holding down the control button then the F key. A menu will pop up to type and search out a particular word or DTC code with laser beam accuracy so every...

    2009 Tahoe won’t start

    I liked put it back how it was for step 1. Are any of the wires warm? Battery should be removed, slow charged & taken to store to be load tested for bad cell. Extreme weather and new battery activity may have been its death blow

    Is this a viable replacement for the stock Bose head-unit?

    It’s ħit & miss with those. Do you have steering wheel controls?

    Lube points?

    Nothing on the U joints unfortunately. The driveshaft splines are a forgotten place to try and get. Obviously don’t use a petrol product like wd40 as it will dry out rubber bushings. A temporary solution is silicone or ptfe based lubes on all the bushings to free them up. Ultimately at the age...

    Clunk when accelerating after coasting at 80 km/h, and clunk when reapplying gas after coasting from 40 km/h to 60 km/h

    What you’re hearing is tied into a flow chart of fixing one particular thing can make fixing another thing you didn’t know about almost free. It’s important to know when and how to spend dough on this drivetrain. Repairs & mandatory services done in the wrong order can cost you 3x as much. Is...

    Genuine Tech2 quick question

    2nd on purchasing if the price is right. A lot of the cost of the clones has shipping cost tied into the price. Sounds like the guy is unloading his hoard and ready to cash in. Cash (in hand) being the ultimate bargaining tool.

    Need a little help with CANBus trouble.

    Hahaha, CANBUS = 56K modem technology wired with tinsel thin phone wires. Perfect comparison of a peanut butter & jelly classic

    Factory crossbar upgrade?

    I’d take a look at another Denali or Esky rack and check for any differences between those and yours. Most owners don’t get up too often. Mine are pretty snug and feel like they’d be ok with the the factory accessories to mount stuff up top. Pretty sure Esky & Denali have same racks. The last...

    Afterblow, NBS, NNBS, DIC, etc. Manufacturer specific anachronyms that all the long term owners are used to. We forget these vehicles are lasting 2-3x as longer than GM expected and some of these $86k vehicles are being sold for $14.5k (that’d be my Esky lol), and still reliable with another...

    So this just happened...is it bad?

    Research off Chevy, GM Diesel Indi mechanic shops. They stay in business by rebuilding vs hoping the trans sent to them isn’t a dud.

    2015 Yukon Denali - Engine Failure - Sell or Fix?

    It kills me when I see owners getting fleeced when stuff like this occurs. Your truck has the L83 5.3L & 6L80 6SP. All the buyer is going to do is grab a another direct injection motor from a wrecker (that’s got a warranty) and slap it in...

    Second Tahoe for me

    Back of the vehicle passenger side. Don’t cheap out and get a generic. Someone will post or link a 5% discount code for RockAuto too probably. Beware of counterfeit eBay & Amazon offshore parts.

    2023 Tahoe Premier: leaking fluid from front, minor swaying/rough ride

    x2 on having the tech ride with you. Be sure the service writer, or you can even write in when you sign, vehicle sways on start up and drive. It ensures your warranty will cover what’s broken NOW, but not discovered until later. Suspect leaky MagRide struts if equipped or motor mounts. Moving...

    Second Tahoe for me

    Welcome from SoCal. Your car brought back a cool memory of a buddy taking me for a spin in his dad’s GS. Everyone smiled at me when I asked what a 455 was. What a ride! What an awesome way to learn about displacement. Congrats on the Tahoe. It went to the right forever home. Swap out that...

    Oil pan gasket 2007 Denali - Time?

    In a Denali it’s time consuming because of all the stuff in the way. I always tolerate the leak until it’s time for the major trans service when the trans comes out. The oil pump O ring gets replaced, rear main seal, oil pan gasket, oil pressure sender, motor mounts and front diff (2) dog bone...

    What’s going on with the a/c? Did you ever get the tail lamps working and all the other stuff since the led kit was installed?
