    HEADS UP!! Black plastic door trim falls off!

    To the best of my knowledge it is leather on my center console. I got off the phone earlier today with my local Cadillac dealer and the SA said Cadillac is cutting way back on extending courtesy repairs to vehicles out of warranty, even for known design flaws. He said he had a guy who was only...

    HEADS UP!! Black plastic door trim falls off!

    Yes it is. Now even if we were talking about one of their economy cars, people pay their good hard earned money and should expect a quality product. Thus for those of us paying what is close to the price of a condo in certain areas of the country, we should expect things like this to be...

    HEADS UP!! Black plastic door trim falls off!

    Well I went looking on Google to find a fix and came across this thread. I am hoping this is not one of several items like the last generation that GM knows is a design flaw, but refuses to fix once outside of the warranty. We should not have to be fixing these flaws out of our own pockets or do...

    Key Fob programming preferences for different drivers?

    Well I just picked up the 2nd fob and key. I asked the locksmith who programmed it to my ESV to show me how to do the setting of driver 1 & 2, but he said it was all via the CUE system. The fob he programmed to work with the ESV will have factory default settings, not specific to a particular...

    Key Fob programming preferences for different drivers?

    Well Clogan2 & Galante, I hope you two are correct, as that would make sense considering other manufactures have that feature. I am going to get a 2nd fob/key today and would like the locksmith who is doing the programming to set it correctly. He supposedly has the correct fob and knows how to...

    Key Fob programming preferences for different drivers?

    Wow, I'd hope what I think you are saying is not true. Many cars have the preset programming for drivers 1 & 2 correspond to a specific fob to where when the car is disarmed by a particular fob, all the settings automatically go to the corresponding driver. So if you saying the fob just...

    Key Fob programming preferences for different drivers?

    I just reread your suggested pages of the owners manual, but do not see how you pair one particular key fob to the driver one position/settings vs. the other fob to the driver two position/settings.

    Should I buy a '15 LTZ?

    Hi Patrick and welcome to the forum and future Suburban ownership. The following is coming from a multiple Suburban owner over the years and who also likes the latest generation. However, based on my pricing knowledge (having just been in the market for one until I picked up a 2015 Escalade...

    Key Fob programming preferences for different drivers?

    I only have one key fob for my 2015 Escalade. I plan on getting a 2nd one, and want to make sure it can be programmed the same day to set the customization of the 2nd driver preferences (i.e. seat, mirrors, etc.). I've looked at a 2015 owners manual, but it does not specify being able to...

    No locking gas door or cap?

    Have you been to Frisco lately? It is pretty bad, and the bicycle data is documented, unlike the feces which I don't think the state monitors (as of yet) ;) The same is true of parts of Vancouver. I remember it as a wonderful city and in some ways it still is. However what use to be an eclectic...

    Front license plate holder

    How does that hold up in court if the cars from neighboring states do not require such things? Heck CA could go hog wild by nailing anyone without a dozen emissions requirements on out of state cars, much less a front plate.

    No locking gas door or cap?

    What? Why do they want the cats, to resell for dope or something? See, a proximity sensor would help to prevent that type of crime. BTW-We were just posting in the front licence plate thread and talking about all the problems in CA. In SF which some consider the crown jewel of cities in your...

    Front license plate holder

    I have friends and family that live in LA and Luguna and they are all moderate to conservative politically. They don't know people who are liberals, as none of their friends/coworkers agree with all the nanny state nonsense. So it is a big mystery how these cradle to grave politicians get...

    Key fob 'hidden' tricks...

    I think you did post regarding a key fob, but not specifically regarding assigning it to another drivers preferences. I did find an owners manual and looked it up, but it does not have anything regarding how to assign it to drivers presets that I could find. I am assuming it can be done like...

    Front license plate holder

    I feel for you CA guys with all the rules/laws/regulations. How you allow the local and state politicians to mandate a nanny state on most everything you do is beyond my understanding. While too dark a tint, such as "limo tint" on a regular vehicle might get you pulled over or a ticket, few...

    No locking gas door or cap?

    If you are asking me, I have not in decades. When I did, it was in an effort to drain a tank prior to removal. Still that misses the point, as I am not a penniless punk, but there are plenty around who would be tempted to steal $90 worth of gas. Heck a friend of mine had his convertible top cut...

    Key fob 'hidden' tricks...

    Nice thread subject and hopefully this question can go here without having to start a specific thread. I only have one key fob for my 2015 Escalade. I plan on getting a 2nd one, and want to make sure it can be programmed to set the customization of the 2nd driver preferences (seat, mirrors...

    No locking gas door or cap?

    I hope there are other options, as those would look bad on an Escalade. Thanks for taking the time to look those up though.

    No locking gas door or cap?

    Indeed, and siphoning is the small issue. All it would take to ruin your car would be some punk pouring something into your fuel system that would damage your engine. I cannot understand how such an obvious oversight could occur for the elite SUV they charge upwards of $90k for.

    No locking gas door or cap?

    My 07 Suburban had the screw on cap, thus I put a locking one on to prevent fuel theft and more importantly vandalism. However the 2015 Escalade I picked up is cap-less and even worse, when the doors are locked and the alarm armed, the door does not lock. On our 2004 BMW 330cic when the door was...

    87 octane vs 91 octane

    Well I just checked and Costco premium is 93 octane and is $2.84 per gallon. While certainly more than the 87 octane regular at $2.46 pg, at least it is $0.15 - 0.20 per gallon cheaper than what most premium is going for in S. Fl Plus if you have the Costco Visa, you get 4% cash back on every...

    Best aftermarket alarm for the most stolen vehicle on the road.

    That is a good point about the range of the proximity sensor on a large SUV. I wonder if more than one can be tied into the system. If not, I'd go for one closer to the front to try and prevent attempts to open the hood or go underneath to cut the battery cable. The tilt/motion sensor should...

    Front license plate holder

    For those of you in states where they have the unnecessary money grab mandating a front licence plate, we in Florida do not have such a big brother requirement. Needless to say other than what I mentioned, they look hideous on certain vehicles, such as Corvettes, thus some drivers in CA and the...
