    Lower center console side removal

    No, I'm out of warranty and while irritating, not willing to screw something else up further that will cost me more down the road....

    Did anyone pick up a 2025 model?

    Maybe we should make a new category to discuss 25's and up since it is starting to come up?

    2025 Ultimate (AT4 and Denali) trims delayed?

    Along this line, has anyone seen this Titanium Rush metallic color? I can't really interpret it. Is it of a dark dark blue or more of a dark dark gray?

    2025 Ultimate (AT4 and Denali) trims delayed?

    I'd say if I order it in February with a decent volume dealer.. I'll have it by Mid May. Thats good enough for the summer season for me..... Build starts March 5th, but i'm sure you can order before... just won't be accepted till then.....

    2021 GMC Yukon Denali Oil Burn

    Be thankful you even have a dipstick... many new vehicles only have electronic oil level indicators buried in the DIC....

    2025 Ultimate (AT4 and Denali) trims delayed?

    I want a diesel only, so I know I'll be waiting... Not getting too excited yet...

    Little vs big V8 2025 Tahoe

    Whoever got out there early in 2018 and poisoned these people about this belt in the back of these 3.0 Duramax's did a dang good job. I can't even believe that topic comes up anymore. Has anyone ever heard of one failing? Yet, brand new 6.2's are shredding metal everyday requiring complete...

    Little vs big V8 2025 Tahoe

    You got that right; I can't believe what a big deal people make out of what they think is such huge maintenance with a diesel. I can promise you it doesn't take me 10% more time or effort of any gas vehicle I have ever owned. The benefits far far outweigh the very little bit more of work you...

    Little vs big V8 2025 Tahoe

    This isn't a 1960's John Deere tractor. When I tell people mine's a diesel... They can't believe it or believe there is such a thing as a diesel Yukon.

    Diesel Question

    I probably have use 10-12.5 gal in total in 3.5 years..... 34K miles. It's really a non-issue. If I was on a 1200-mile trip towing... then maybe, but you could always get it a at dispenser then if usage was high.

    Little vs big V8 2025 Tahoe

    So, we seriously can't even put in an order for a diesel till March 2025? Pitiful... I was thinking of possibly ordering in January. Anything else under constraint beyond March that people may want?

    Little vs big V8 2025 Tahoe

    Why would you not consider a diesel? It has every advantage over both of those engines. especially in the towing department which you anticipate. There is no downside....

    Diesel Question

    Passing people at 80MPH is about only .01% of my time with it. All other days it is far superior in normal day driving and a tank of fuel lasts at least twice as long. The only engine of choice for this big vehicle.

    Thoughts on purchasing a higher-mileage Duramax?

    60K Miles is nothing on a diesel engine. I would have all the fluids changed on the vehicle as part of a prerequisite to buy. If everything else adds up and it is in good shape and a fair price, I wouldn't let that mileage stop me and all.

    $64 for 8-Quart Full Synthetic Oil Change at local GMC dealer

    Thats not a half a quart, the whole crosshatch is one quart appx.... looks more like about 1/8-1/4 qt max. Nothing to worry about when it holds 8.....

    Lockup recall - N242454440

    If that's the case would a new valve be covered out of warranty if it causes this issue at say 50-75K miles? Covered by powertrain warranty?

    Lockup recall - N242454440

    The question is how urgent is this repair? has it been happening with regularity on these vehicles?? I've never heard of it happening. Might take a look at it at the next time it has to go in. But not really too excited about it at the moment... 33k and no issues....

    Wow great mpg

    you can easily get 30+ mpg at 55-60, but on I75 you will also get run over too. You regularly will get passed doing 80 here. Heck, they do 55-60 in residential areas here in FL.

    How often do you go WOT aka "Italian tune up"?

    Usually, every on ramp to major interstates if no one is ahead of you, I'll hammer it up to about 85-90 a few times a month. Can't hurt anything....

    Batteries?

    I own 2 of those. One of the best chargers out there. Use on boats, jet ski's, all vehicles. Keeps everything in tip top shape. A must have for any multiple or seasonal battery owner.

    2021 Yukon - No Key Found - No Start Condition (update 11/9)

    I may have Sams club do mine. They do a great job and you are out of there quickly if you are there when they open in the morning. They sell the same battery... Post your video here when you make it.....

    2021 Tahoe Overhead Console Homelink Button Sticker came off

    Sorry, but that's not a sticker. There is nothing user replaceable inside the overhead console. You will have to buy a new unit and possibly have the dealer install it because it is touchy to remove and replace without damaging the area around it..

    2021 Yukon - No Key Found - No Start Condition (update 11/9)

    This coincides with the post I made a few days ago about battery life. It's becoming more obvious to me that these are 3-to-4-year batteries instead of 6-to-7-year batteries... I will put replacement of mine on the list in the next few months.

    OEM parts on Amazon?

    They put a microchip in GE refrigerator filters so that you can only use ice and water through them for 6 months. It functions 180 days after activation. After that, the ice and water feature in the door just shuts down if you don't replace it. Of course, they don't tell you that when you buy...
