    A distracted driver finally got me.

    First I am glad to hear everyone was uninjured. That said, and ASSUMING this was his 1st accident, he still is an example of the menace these irresponsible drivers pose while playing with their phone. For all you know he was not using his GPS program, but maybe texting LOL or OMG which we all...

    Tire Sensors - TPMS

    While I am happy to support a forum vendor, can you give me an answer(can be via PM if you prefer) as to the difference between yours for $130(maybe with tax), vs. the ones I linked from ebay for $95 with no tax?

    Front Dash Crack

    It is an equal opportunity factory defect on all color dashes that GM makes for their trucks. Yes, it should not crack after 100K, much less under 15K which is the lowest I've read it has happened to. Heck I have several cars from the 1980's with no crack in the dash, so a couple of years is...

    Mirror Swap Question: Are Side Mirrors Plug and Play on an 07 Tahoe?

    What ever happened with your mod(i.e. puddle lamps working, switch for power fold, etc.) and what was the final cost?

    Side Blind Zone System Unvailable?

    Any idea as to the cost and ease of install for doing the mirrors without the blind side function but everything else? `

    Third Row bench seat problem

    Sorry for the late reply as the seats are down on the list even though I do want to get them fixed. I will try again, but the left side did not seem to want to come out from any position, but maybe I had it too close to being upright. As to the right side backrest not flipping down, I'd like...

    Well, that Escaladed quickly!

    Lugs can make or break the look of nice wheels. My Foose 22" rims on the AV look great, but the lugs sucked, so spending a few extra bucks for decent lugs made a big difference.

    Anyone have pictures of their blacked out rides?

    Looks great except for those honken headlights which stand out even more with most everything else being blacked out.

    Jiffy Lube experience

    They added a lot as my reservoir was close to empty. Still I'd like to know. Trouble is that I am running into the same thing you have where it is about a 50/50 split. Some people/sources swear it is bad and not to do it. Others are saying it is no big deal. The question is who to believe, and...

    Side Blind Zone System Unvailable?

    I've been thinking of swapping out my mirrors for ones that have the fold in feature, side blinkers, and maybe even the blind zone feature. If you get the mirrors and the switches, will that alone be enough for everything to work on a swap out?

    Looking at getting an older Suburban/Tahoe - Suggestions?

    If you are dead set on a Z71 then I cannot help you. But I do have a 2001 Suburban LT Autoride 4X4 with every option and only 130K that I am thinking of selling. Now based on me being new here I don't think I can actually offer to sell it with a price and an ad, but if I do decide to sell it(son...

    Jiffy Lube experience

    Well I'd really like to know for certain about mixing coolants and so called universal coolants, because I do not trust the Jiffy Lube person as far as I could throw him.

    Tire Sensors - TPMS

    I will be self programming. It looks pretty simple to me, if not time consuming if you have to repeat the process.

    Jiffy Lube experience

    I know I should not get hung up on the color, but I was under the impression that the various colors were intended to help differentiate the different types so you didn't mix them or in theory put the wrong type in. I know a lot of the Corvette guys have drained the Dexcool out because of some...

    Will Ford Keys for last Gen work on this Gen?

    Long story short, I bought two Fork Keys for my 2001 Chevy Sub to lift it a little. Trouble was that is was an Autoride, and I was told it might screw up the ride. So I put them away in a drawer, and here I am years later with them sitting in a storage drawer. It just dawned on me that since...

    Third Row bench seat problem

    I am trying to get this 2007 Sub back to 100%, and just have a few more things to get fixed. My 3rd row seat backrest on the drivers side flips down, and the seat flips up, but will not unlock to be able to pull it out. The passenger side backrest will not not release to fold forward, and feels...

    Thanks, I returned the message via email. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````` To anyone with the knowledge; How do you determine which ones are bad if the 2nd one in the system reprogramming cycle does not work? I'd hate to just replace that one to find out if the others...

    Jiffy Lube experience

    I should have learned my lesson the last time I went there a few years ago when they overfilled my engine with about 3 quarts too many and I blew an engine seal. The lure of a $15 oil change out the door brought me back. Anyway, I asked the manager not to let a rookie work on it and he assured...

    2011 Yukon Denali XL options and packages

    Hello and welcome to the forum fellow newbie. Others will chime in I'm sure, but you may want to start with Edmunds, punch in the particulars, and see what options it shows came with your particular trim level.

    Tire Sensors - TPMS

    I am hoping you all have some experience in finding less expensive sensors as mine might be shot. When I go to program/re-learn the system, the first tire (Drivers side front) will register, but the front passenger side does not, so the learning program times out. I don't know if I only have one...

    Quad retro on aftermarket housings or OEM?

    LOL,,,Some peoples skin is a little too thin. I have a similar dilemma and was thinking of getting your set up in a blacked out version, but do not want to lose significant illumination in my headlights. However I do not want to spend $1K+ for over the top HID's either. Are the LED's in...

    Help with replacing motor mounts

    As search revealed this as one of the few threads about motor mounts. My drivers side one is also bad, so I was thinking of having both done. Although I've done a lot of repairs over the years, I haven't done motor mounts. I'm probably going to pay a mechanic to do it, so how big a job is it...
