    I think the dealership destroyed my engine

    I'm late to the party. I had this exact issue happen to Regal GS from a GMC dealer. They did in fact forget to put the oil back in. There was not warning lights as the car made it a grand total of 1/4 mile before implosion. Exact same symptoms, there was a strange noise on throttle lift of...

    Uneven Tire Wear (Alignment Needed?)

    As always thanks for all the advice! There's a few items here. 1. I need to rotate my tires more often 2. An alignment can't hurt 3. Most surprising is my drive to work each day starts with one clover leaf highway entrance, but never an exit. Either way, an alignment will at least help...

    Uneven Tire Wear (Alignment Needed?)

    From the picture it definitely looks like I have positive camber on the front. The passenger side has similar wear, but much less significant. Is there a reason this would come out of alignment with just 25K on the odo? Or could it have just been bad from the factory and I'm really just...

    Gun Safe

    My first suggestion in know your local laws. I live in The Peoples Republic of Illinois and even storing loaded gun in a safe can be questionable without a concealed carry permit. Second suggestion, if you plan on using it for self defense, whatever mount you sue practice with a trainer or...

    Uneven Tire Wear (Alignment Needed?)

    I apologize if this has been covered, but could not find anything via search. I have a 2018 Yukon Denali (22" OEM Bridgestone tires). I have 25K miles with tires rotated right around 12K miles. In inspecting my tires, I have noticed uneven wear on very outside tread of my front driver side...

    Actual Speeds of OnStar WiFi/LTE Hotspot?

    You have most of your answer above, which also helps inform me some. I get terrible speeds. I've open 3 cases with OnStar, but doesn't matter. I average about 3-5Mbps down (many tests it's under 1Mbps) which is total garbage for 4G. Same exact spot and signal strength from my iPhone I get...

    Husky floor mats. Why doesn’t it fit?

    lynxnova, I think cutting is your best bet here. I have a 2019 Yukon and Husky has sent me 2 different "tries" at a second row mat and both don't fit even with supposedly new measurements. I gave up and just cut it in the middle to get it to fit. Lost some of the water containment, but...

    4 wheel drive auto mode

    rjr - I know this is an old post, but not sure if you found an answer to your question about noise. I have a 2018 Denali and mine sounds the same when I engage 4-wheel Auto. I only have 13,000 miles, but just started noticing it. Although that doesn't mean it wasn't there before since I mostly...

    2018 Yukon DRL

    My ‘18 Denali only has the LED accent DRLs during they day. There may be some settings in the DIC but a quick call to the dealer should inform you if you can’t find anything in the manual.

    Lets see those wheels! Yukon Owners also question about wheels

    Sorry, been a very busy few weeks and I've been off the boards. Yes it's a '18 Denali debadged and chrome trim wrapped in satin black. I'll have to find some sunshine here in IL to take some better pics :)

    Lets see those wheels! Yukon Owners also question about wheels

    Yeah, Not sure what the part number is. I think it's #23217243. This is what it looks like stock. 22" ultra-bright aluminum wheels with Midnight Silver premium paint

    Lets see those wheels! Yukon Owners also question about wheels

    I know you asked about 07-14 models and this is 2018 so ignore if needed. However, if you like the style of your wheel powder coating is a great option to change the look. I powder coated my OEM 22s in Evo Grey (center cap is now plastidiped to match). I got to keep the OEM quality wheel and...

    Husky floor mats

    I love the Husky X-Act Contour in my 2018 Denali. I love them EXCEPT for the 2nd row. 2nd row fit is terrible. They sent me a new batch with an "updated" cut, but still they don't fit leaving a huge hump in the middle or extra material at the ends. If this is fixed (haven't tried again since...

    Tell me all your lies, rumors, and facts about 'Ceramic Paint'

    I did the CQuartz on my 2018 Black Denali. Mine did run into the 4 figures, but I opted for significant paint correction. As Scottydoggs mentioned, with black I wanted all the swirls gone. It's been 10 months since it was coated, and it holds up great so far. Water still beads like the day I...

    Factory Alarm is going off for no reason

    I have the very same problem. However, mine goes off with vibration, I think... I park my 2018 Denali about 10 yards from a commuter and freight train line. During the week it goes off a couple random times every week. Seems to go away if I turn off the motion sensor for some reason. No...

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    Rocket Man - Totally get it. Especially in my area where people love to complain regardless of what was promised (or not).

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    Jim, Sorry for the delay. I really appreciate the offer. I'm not in a huge rush, but do have the bug to get things all completed. I may just start calling around a few more shops here. There are hundreds in the Chicagoland area, but 95% of them are just a pain to deal with. Plus my luck is...

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    LOL. To each his own. If I made my own it's not what I'd pay for custom. I don't think they are terrible and I like that the shop is doing something different. Most everything I see is just some black mesh or diamond mesh. Strut is pretty sweet stuff, but looking for more aggressive than...

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    Yeah, I don't mind the factory Denali grill. I couldn't find a single body or paint shop around me that would touch paining my trim or grill. So i had local shop wrap it for now! I also have some emblem overlays to test out next. I was just thinking about going more radical and getting...

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I did come across Strut in some of my searches. I think they make great looking stuff, but I'm hoping for a more aggressive look than classy if that make sense. Thanks for the reminder on T-Rex. Last I looked they didn't have many options for the 2018, but looks...

    '18 Denali Custom Grill Fabricators?

    I have searched all over the internet for custom grill options for my 2018 Denali. While I've found a few options for mesh grill inserts and a few others that will work with the active shutters, I just haven't found one that I like. That said, I'm now on a search for any fabricators that might...

    Asshats that park too close.

    I usually park my Denali a "mile" away from any potential A$$h@@es. I may try this with my wife's car as it just seems fun!

    Brand New 2018 Yukon <300 Miles Dead Battery

    Thanks to Vector and swathdiver and dbbd1 for the responses. Quick update, dealer said battery checked out fine. They kept the car for 36 hours testing the resting draw at 4 different points with no abnormal results. They replaced the battery upon request and it's back in my garage. At least...

    Brand New 2018 Yukon <300 Miles Dead Battery

    @Vector - Thanks for the input. I should have let it charge more, but after 30 minutes in 5 degree weather I was done. At that point I was just happy I could get the car in neutral and didn't have to drag it out of my garage. I know the cold can impact batteries, but it had weathered our last...
