2015+ No longer AWD but 4x4 auto like the rest of the lineup.
Good tire shops can shave down the new tires to match the others to keep the same rolling diameter.
If you’ve had those recent alignments than that changes things.
If they did any work during your most recent visit that involved messing with a front suspension component (sway bar links excluded) than the vehicle would have needed a proper alignment.
If it is specifically itemized on your...
You need an alignment. You were probably out of spec when you installed those tires 28,000 miles ago.
No shop will ever check alignment past a possible visual inspection on their 900 point pencil whipped inspection sheet. They didn’t do anything wrong, you need an alignment and 2 new tires (put...
Shouldn’t be too bad, a compound/polish afterwards helps blend it in.
Depends on how particular you are, one of those things nobody will ever notice but it’s the only thing you ever look at when you walk up to the vehicle because you know it’s there.
Looks good.
If you don’t like the pinstripe take it off now before the fade in the paint is noticeable. When fresh they’re easier to take off in 1 piece. Shouldn’t need anything more than your fingernail to remove and 3M GP Adhesive Cleaner (the one in the quart) to safely remove the residue...
They can present in different ways, typically a speed based noise/ vibration. Here is a quick basic video on how to check if there is obvious play.
Rear axle does have a small amount of in/out play STD so ignore that.
Sorry, don’t have E15 around here.
If we assume everyone’s 2001 and newer PCM can properly adjust based on O2 feedback than the figure is roughly 1.65% more fuel consumption going from E10 to E15.
Too many factors driving in the real world for anyone to make a meaningful comparison but...
Lots of manufacturers stating 10%MAX, not sure how that’s going to work out with the non-flex fuel vehicles out there.
More ethanol in the mix, everyone gets a little less MPG. Back to the pump quicker and more consumption.
The Bilstein is a firmer more controlled ride, some like it some don’t. Also important is that not all ACDelco stuff is equal. Just because it’s an ACDelco part doesn’t mean it’s exactly what was on from the factory, I suggest looking up the strut by your vin and compare part # to what you...
I’m going to be honest here from what I can see. If you’re not going to raise the front of the vehicle any more you would have to cut so much out that you’d probably be through the firewall. If nobody in SoCal wants to do it that says a lot to me. It’s just not even close, most people who...
Not likely. Domestic consumption only dropped around 3% during the last recession, and normalized there for ~6 years.
For most people energy is a need. This is very different from a want, which the value of will indeed plummet here shortly.
Too many sub form = less traffic. Less traffic = less replies to threads in the correct sections, and thus people will post in the incorrect sections just to get a response.
The buying/ordering craze is a short fad and given the current economic climate, that will probably be changing very...
