    Suburban or Denali XL?

    bottom line not the bottom That would be a good price. For me, there were cheaper, but not worth it. I've spent thousands on eBay cars to get through State Inspection, and delivery, etc. This was at a Maryland Dealer, State Inspected, warranty, and I sat in it. Bought it and drove it home the...

    Suburban or Denali XL?

    You got that right! I bought my 2005 Yukon XL SLT/AutoRide 3 months ago. Had 63,000, loaded and the Stabilitrak transfer case (you know, the Stabilitrak/squiggly line/4 Low). Dealer asking $18,900. I slid a Cashiers Check for $18,000 across the table and he SLID IT BACK!!! TRUE! He said...

    Escalade Vs Denali Vs Tahoe Cluster

    Actually, I like mine (1st)...doing 55mph is easier to see. I was thinking the 3rd one was very clean looking, but the 1st more functional.

    Demoulding

    On those car rebuild/customize cable shows I see them using fishing line behind emblems, medallions, stuff glued on, etc to get them off. I'll sometime want to take the "Yukon XL" script off the tailgate and was looking for the right way too.

    Lug Nut Size

    My 7/8" feels loose on the nut...like a 13/16" would be perfect, but there are no 13/16" lug wrenches. I know the nuts themselves are metric (it's stamped on the nut). Are my nuts worn out (ummm wait-a-minute) or is it a size issue (wait - this IS still the Yukon thread).

    Name That Smell - and Where'd It Come From!

    2005 XL, flawless trips to NJ (21.4mpg). But - to WV another story. Halfway up a 5 mile 9% grade, all of a sudden, car fills with an exhaust smell. Clears on the downside. Seems to come back on hill climbs. Got back to MD and when cold in the am = no smell...10 miles down the highway I swear I...

    AWD, what exactly does this mean

    Whatever it is - I have it. The 2005 XL w/Stabilitrac (AWD?) AND 4-wheel LOW. Drove it in 11" of new snow and ice like a madman this week. Climbed some real steep gravel roads...never touched any button...Dealer said: just point it where you want it to go in any condition...the computer will...

    05 cargo cover

    Bought the # 15051511 (color = neutral) for the 2005 Yukon XL. Color perfect...problem is the width at the rear. Length stretches fine from the front setting (3rd row removed). BUT - the rear end measures 55" which is 1/2" too narrow to hold in the rear slots@#%^%#%~#%~#%~#% Its almost like the...

    Dome lite - 2005 Yukon XL SLT

    Yu can adjust how long the headlights stay on after you turn it off. You can hit a button to keep the dome lites off all-together. BUT...if on...when you close the door...they stay on for 20 or so seconds and fade to off. Can you adjust the time on THAT? Like - shut the door and OFF!

    Tahoe 3rd row seat questions

    Taking lighting in mind...yes...I'd think so. It's really called "neutral" as a color name vs the "tan" which is really more brown. "Neutral" is closer to a grey/pewter. I have it and on the build sheet its called "neutral".

    AUX Button

    I have it too. It takes the sound from the DVD that goes to the wireless headsets and pipes it into the whole vehicle audio system so everyone can hear the DVD. It works. From the Manual (3-115): To listen to the DVD, press the CD AUX button until RSE appears on the radio display. The current...

    Best Year Tahoe/Yukon?

    overhead dvd player

    I do know I've seen them at Best Buy where they trasnmit to a specified FM radio station. But I'd ask a professional installer if it can't be wired to the radio just as the original...don't see why not! Yes...the original 7" isn't near big enough for me...I mean...

    Back Seat Secrets

    I'll silicon spray all moving parts before I put it back in...man...the thing weights 100lbs! It had me going when the manual turned out to be wrong!!! May have overpaid for the 2005 Yukon XL SLT(AutoRide/Stabilitrak), but must admit it is way beyond pristine, more toward show quality. Not a...

    Back Seat Secrets

    Comes up a lot: How do I get the 3rd seat out? Well...don't go by the Owners Manual. Mine said (Page 1-18 #4) "Squeeze the release lever in the lower middle..." Umm - NO SUCH THING EXISTS! Mine had a nylon tab you'd use to pull the seat back down from the rear. if folded forward. WRONG - I...
