    2013 AFM Failure -> Delete Kit advice

    Wow I didnt know I was still at risk. I didnt have an issue, I did it as preventative after hearing all the concerns out there. I'm assuming this does not affect everyone. There are a lot of AFM trucks out there. Have we confirmed what puts you at higher risk of lifter issues? What would...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I just got a Die Hard with same instructions. They say all these batteries are same manufacturer, just different quality control or something. I assumed nothing extra needed to be done since i did nothing with my first replacement. Glad everyone confirmed.

    2013 AFM Failure -> Delete Kit advice

    Just curious why people not a fan of AFM delete software/flash. I have had it for 100k miles. Its cheaper, simpler. What is the reason to NOT go this route?

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Larger oil filter, do you think requires more oil, maybe the entire 6 qrts? All of these filters seem to be fine. I could use the longer filter for install/de-installs

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Yes the Toyota 4 cylinder engines in late 2000's had piston ring issues and the heavier oil just bought them more time between oil change intervals so they didnt have to refill as much inbetween intervals.

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Heavier oil has benefited the Toyota crowd with oil burning. Would that be an additional benefit with 5w-40?

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Looks like the gauge is back to where it was. Idling at closer to 25-30 now when warm.

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Just an update. Finally received and installed filter. I wish I took a video before install but I think it corrected my oil pressure if this was ever considered a problem. On first cold start, it jumped to 40 and when warm, idled to around 30-35. On the hardest WOT, it went as high as 50-55...

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    You might be right. I have used them for 6 years with no issues (PF48e) but I am not pushing high power, towing nor doing anything crazy but putting highway miles.

    Flapping Monitor - Rear Entertainment Display

    My rear screen has no back bone. When it drops, it jiggle jiggles. Any suggestions to get it stability so people can open it halfway or not worry about momentum making it look like its at bat with 2 on base?

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    there are different versions. My knowledge isnt the best but PF48s were the originals. They upgraded to PF48Es which I guess have better internal material and recently they went to PF48R which are supposed to be the best but cost more. They are heavier, people say they help resolve some low...

    AC DELCO OIL FILTER

    Is it me or are these impossible to get? I have been looking for PF48e and sold out everywhere. I ordered one and its taking forever to get to me. The only time I tried a filter besides ac delco, my oil sensor went bad. Unrelated but yea i'm that scary. MIA...

    Tranny Swap 6L80 2010 Tahoe

    I dont think 2007 had a 6L80. They started putting 6L80 in the NNBS in 2009 I believe. Prior to that, it was 4 speed tranny vs yours which is 6 speed. My understanding is they are even less reliable so you would want a 2009 and up. The weak point is the torque converter so might want to look...

    BOV - Whistling Dixie - Does your truck make noise?

    Anyone boosted have a loud BOV or charger whine? I'm a BOV and/or supercharger whine fanatic. Can anyone share clips? If you could share your build and average cost to get that far performance/sound wise, would be great for the dreamers in here including me :)

    Torque converter recommendations 6l80e

    All this talk about stall got me lost. Hopefully OP made some progress on his journey. For someone that wants boost, what TC would be recommended/price vs something better than stock that does exactly what stock does? What is the disadvantage going with beefier TC and not able to take...

    Failed inspection today

    Yes I recently failed because my sensors werent ready. They typically tell you to drive around and come back 1 time for another test at no additional charge.

    Engine dropping in RPM and stalling

    Definitely sounds like maintenance. As others suggested, start with the simple that would benefit you regardless if you had a problem or not. Fuel injector or complete fuel system cleaner. look into possibly cleaning throttle/MAF. I had similar issues on other cars and it was related to...

    INPUT ON TRANS PAN DROP, FILTER, GASKET & FLUID CHANGE

    Exhaust bend alone is enough and easiest way to do this. No unbolting of anything.

    No oil pressure on start up.

    I thought these engines took 5w-30 ??

    Stuck in Neutral

    For now, you can slip it back in if you have the gear in the right spot before it broke. But it will most likely pop back out when you change gears again. Truck tall enough you can slide down and just put it back until you get your part but not a temporary setup you want others to worry about :)

    INPUT ON TRANS PAN DROP, FILTER, GASKET & FLUID CHANGE

    Yes I changed my tranny fluid twice and both times I had to bend exhaust a little so bottom pan can come out without damaging sensors/internals

    Oil Pressure Sensor Stuck?!

    Finding your way to make it work, I love it. I used to always love working on trucks because of how much easier it was to work under the car compared to coupes and sedans, not realizing the complete opposite when working in the engine bay. I literally had to pull out my ladder for certain...
