    Bug Deflector / WeatherTech Mats

    I purchased Weathertech mats and a cargo liner the week after I brought my truck home. They have been in ever since and fit like nothing I've ever seen. They're rolled for shipping (at least the cargo mat was) and I put it out onto the driveway (facedown) for a few hours on a warm summer...

    Illuminated Bowtie

    That DOES look great. What a great idea- We've come so far from the days of the simple brushed billet aluminum, or custom painted emblems. Very nice.

    ** '15 Yukon XL Denali w/95k miles - Yes or No? **

    Me either, I can't just line her up and "forget" while the Yukon pulls into the parking space, but darned if I didn't get a call from my dealer (after posting this last week) that I need to come in and have it checked. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the recall, or they're using words for...

    ** '15 Yukon XL Denali w/95k miles - Yes or No? **

    There were two active recalls on the 15 Yukon XL, one involved the sticker id'ing the fuses in the driver's side dash fuse block. The sticker (which was probably replaced by the owner, as they were sent out to owners to do themselves), the other (and it's one I still need to bring my into the...

    Best Aftermarket camera system for 360/front view?

    I went back through my activity and found this- I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for, but it was good info: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/dash-cam-mirror-cam.96261/

    Best Aftermarket camera system for 360/front view?

    I explored a number of options with this a few months ago, asking a lot of friends, social media connections and if I recall, asking here too. My goal was to be able to document traffic incidents or collisions and such while driving. I was also pondering interior views for potential criminal...

    Who paid Onstar or is it worth it Or 4g service Is it worth it.

    I've had Onstar coverage on my 15 Yukon XL since the 6 months free intro expired. I don't use the data plan, haven't needed it yet and my phone has a hotspot. That's not to say at some point, I won't have it "turned on" if I need it (which is one of the advantages to having an active plan). I've...

    The Unexplainable, Unresolved issue an expert LS builder and Dealership can't figure out

    While I confess, aside from what's already been posted (I am leaning towards the windshield wiper fluid suggestion, only because I once put straight Windex in mine in a pinch and got a very strong odor of Ammonia while washing my windows one evening) I am at a loss for what this could be- I...

    Best place for touch up paint

    I picked these up for the wife and I, I have a 15 Yukon XL, with Iridium Metallic. While I have no nicks or scratches yet. I read really good things about these guys, and the prices were right. I had trouble finding touch up for the wife's 2016 Forerunner, in the Toyota Blue, but found it here...

    GMC Emblem Removal Instructions - Front / Rear

    FWIW- I did this to my 2015 Yukon, but I didn't remove the old red, simply spent around 20 bucks on eBay for a sheet of "carbon fiber" adhesive vinyl. I cleaned the red, and stuck small squares of the vinyl over the red areas, using a sanded popsicle stick, and a "cuticle" device (thin round...

    Cracked windshield on new 18 Tahoe LT

    That's good news, glad to hear it. There's no reason NOT to put OEM glass in, (aside from of course the insurance company not wanting to pay for it). Best of luck!

    Cracked windshield on new 18 Tahoe LT

    Is it just me, or does it seem as though GM windshields are more apt to cracking/breaking? I've had GM/Chevy's my whole life, and never had a single issue with any type of broken/shattered glass, in spite of being hit a multitude of times with things in the windshield. The exception to this is...

    Cracked windshield on new 18 Tahoe LT

    I had an object strike my 2015 Yukon XL when it was about 4 months old. It shattered/crushed a large area just below the roof line of my windshield. I have the forward facing lane tracker/collision avoidance sensor(s) behind the rear view mirror, and "collision avoidance Head up display). I...

    A sudden and unexpected oil leak.

    I have a 2015 Yukon XL, I bought new in 2015. Being retired, and working only part time as a scuba instructor the truck doesn't see much mileage. (I was supposed to receive my first 4 oil changes for free, provided I hit enough mileage within the two year window, I only got one free, in December...

    What the hell does this switch do?

    If I recall, as mentioned, pulling the lever "back" slightly will "flash" your high-beams, pulling the lever back to the "click" will turn your high beams on (staying on). The turn signal lever was tasked with a lot of things in the early 90's (gone are the small silver foot button for high...

    Extended warranty has it paid for its self?

    Echoing what Orchid posted- I never purchased an extended warranty on any vehicle I purchased, (new or otherwise)- But all of those lacked the sophisticated electronics the 2015 Yukon XL I bought new in 2015. I used the same salesman I'd used for the last 3 trucks I purchased over 28 years, and...

    Front license plate holder

    It is possible to receive a parking ticket for no front license plate here in California (Receiving 2 in the last 18 years myself), but as one of my personalized plates were stolen years ago, and I reported, I have found that when making a stink for getting a parking ticket on a legally parked...

    Front license plate holder

    My Yukon came with the hideous front license plate mount as well- Living in California. One of the first things I did was remove. There were two small self tapping sheet metal screws that held it in place. I painted them flat black (which matches the color of the painted plastic inset) put them...

    Remote start

    I've been using my auto-start since I bought my Yukon new, in Aug, 2015 and never had an issue- I use both the fob (hitting the lock button first to enable it of course) and the OnStar app occasionally (I'm still fascinated with the technology that allows me to start, unlock, trigger my alarm on...

    Blacking out trim and emblems ‘18 Denali

    I've looked into a number of options, keeping in mind which would be more/less expensive, and which would require more/less time- I'm still debating a number of options, but the Plati-dip idea is one that I'm leaning towards. It can be removed, but will require re-spray, or updating at some...

    Where to get your Build Sheet?

    Also sent them a PM last week (11/28/17) and received nothing back..... yet? Will have to hit up my dealer's parts guys. Looks like no one from the account has posted anything since 2014.

    Rear cargo mat/liner options.

    I have the "Weathertech" rear cargo mat, and I keep my third row folded down most of the time. The mat is big/flexible enough to be left in place and raise the third row back seats. It does slide up beyond the backs, so the look may not be that great. It's also easy enough to pull it out through...
