    So this isn’t good, right?

    Yes it looks overfull. Tranny has a vent hose. It will be wet near its exit. Tranny fluid (atf) it suppose to be red. I don't think tranny fluid (atf) coming out its vent hose would be that high up or that far forward. You probably have multiple leaks.

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    correct, it's just to submerge the oil pickup oil ring under oil so it can't suck air if it's cracked and/or broke. Then drain out 2 qts and go about your business.

    Public Service Message - AFTERMARKT O2 sensors SUCK!

    in April of 2022, at 174k miles on our 07 Denali w/6.2L, I did not disconnect the battery, I did not need to do a relearn, I changed all four O2 sensors w/two Genuine GM# 213-3533 - $58ea, & two Genuine GM# 213-3538, $53ea; all from amazon. I've put 19k miles on them without issue.

    '08 Tahoe 4x4 Motor Mount Education

    The infamous clunk/klunk sound when transitioning off then on the throttle quickly and getting under it and prying/pushing/pulling on the front differential/driveshaft etc. The next task I'll do to reduce the clunk/klunk will be rebuilding the transfer case, a <$300 DIY job.
