    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    My comment was more directed to my old 2015 Tahoe. 8-9 recalls, took Chevy almost 2yrs to fix the Disco lights, AC failure, the shifting/clicking drivers seat that I had to repair myself, the radio that would brick after 4-5hrs of driving and kill every single noise/light in the cabin...until...

    GM Bulletin on aftermarket air intakes

    Makes sense. Wonder how hard tuning the new 10 speed that Ford/GM created is? I quit running CAI's a while back. Realized they are junk unless you're actually running a hot tune with full bolt-ons. Even then, most stock air-boxes can outflow any air demands the motor needs for a NA...

    GM Bulletin on aftermarket air intakes

    Unless he has an air leak after the MAF, there is zero unmetered air getting into the motor. Biggest issue he'll see with a CAI is that more air can flow vs the factory airbox. But the MAF can still meter the volume of air. It's just a matter of the PCM being able to adjust to the increased...

    GM Bulletin on aftermarket air intakes

    so, it was mentioned earlier in this thread. but you need to read up on the magnuson-moss act. say I install a leveling kit on my Burb. 2 weeks later the trans blows out. GM will be required to honor any/all warranties. same situation, but this time a CV boot tears on the front axle...

    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    I'd be happy with any manufacturer just getting something right! It's not like we haven't been manufacturing vehicles for over 100 yrs.... I bought 3 brand new Fords. All 3 had to be painted within the 1st year. Got fed up with the bullcrap, bought a 2005 Esky to dump the 2012 Flex. Loved...

    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    My Tahoe started vibrating once I moved to CT. At around 33,000 miles the vibration occurred. I thought it was just the crappy roads up here. We drove from CA to TX to CT. The vibration occurred after the ~5,000 mile drive. 2 sets of tires, same deal on CT roads 2017 Burb doesn't do that...

    Ridiculous OnStar Prices

    I only used the app when we were in a mall, or when we went hiking. I'd lock the keys inside and do my thing. Then use phone to get back inside Same for mall, remote start about 5 min before leaving the mall so she'd be nice and cold Not anymore. The service shouldn't cost but $1-2 a month...

    Ridiculous OnStar Prices

    Called and setup OnStar in the 2017 Burb I just got. The OnStar module had gone bad, Dealership replaced today. OnStar gave me a "free trial" for 30 days with LTE and 3gb of data. Offerred a 3 month "free trial" if I gave them my CC # so they could start auto-renew. Yeah...NOPE! After 30...

    2016 Tahoe LT 33K Mile Review

    I had a 2005 Esky with the 6.0 that thing was a rocket. very fun to drive. very thirsty by comparison, the 5.3 and 6 speed in my 2015 were just as good. not quite the same low end, but the top in for the 5.3 screams along nicely. and the 15-17mpg mixed driving, and a solid 22-24 mpg...

    How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

    so I haven't visited this thread in years...luckily never had the described issues in my 2015 the other day I removed the roof rack crossbars so I could trade it in. On the highway I immediately noticed the booming and weird noises that I've always heard about. really freaked me out. Tahoe...

    2016 Tahoe LT 33K Mile Review

    Curious how you feel about all of the recalls and initial issues these rigs were plagued with? Or were you lucky with none of those issues My early 2015 Tahoe (bought May 2014) had 9 recalls, led flicker, ac condenser failure, AFM/V-4 rumble, driver seat shift, and lane departure module...

    Child Car Seat Frustration in ‘17 Tahoe

    curious how tall you are? how much is the upper portion leaned back (front seat)? I'm 6'3". Wife is 5'4" We had carseats like that in 2005 Durango, 2008 Expy EL, 2012 Ford Flex, and 2015 Tahoe. Each had way more room than you are showing. The Durango was closest to what you are showing...

    Upgraded to 2017 Suburban

    Anyone put tow mirrors on these? I traded my V-10 Excursion in as well. Wife is receptive to me taking the Burb on a more offroad look. The Esky mirrors look nice. But are stupid expensive for only a bit more mirror. Here are ones I'm liking.

    Upgraded to 2017 Suburban

    Mine "only" has 375 hp...yeah right. Scariest, fun, slow car I've ever owned. Won't win races, but will smoke them into 3rd, and then cruise across country in comfort. While seating 5 Love it Lol, that's areas been fixed. Learned a lesson after twins

    Upgraded to 2017 Suburban

    Been having issues fighting the Dealership to get our 2015 Tahoe AC Condenser fixed under the Extended Warranty GM offered. They wanted $175 to troubleshoot the leak. They couldn't immediately see obvious leakage. I could repair the problem for less money. And it's a matter of principle, a...

    What does your freon sticker say?

    2015 Tahor 42,0xx miles AC quit working. Lost the charge. I had the recall done to remove refrigerant about 2yrs ago. I believe they are also supposed to check a fitting about mid-body, and replace the sticker under hood. Dealership wants $175 to install dye and find issue. I have the...

    A/C not working

    I have the equipment and certs to do the work...however I don't want to. Nor do I want to pay money out of pocket repair this. Normally work on Military units, and I'm also worried Chevy will use any further excuse (ie: I touched it) to refuse fixing damn thing. 5/01/2018 Purchased Brand new...

    A/C not working

    Dealership states the extended coverage doesn't cover cracked/holes in lines to condenser. Just condenser Won't fix my system I hooked up gauges. Seeing 6-8 psi on low side. Compressor won't turn on. If I had a leak, wouldn't pressure be zero?

    A/C not working

    bumping this Turned on the AC yesterday after 7+ months of winter. AC worked fine back in Oct 2017. Was completely floored when it only blew hot air. I googled "2015 tahoe ac not working" and found thousands upon thousands of hits. Insane. Luckily Post #113 jogged my memory. I too...

    Do You Regret: Short-Body vs Long-Body

    V-10 was offered from 1999 to current. 99 to I think 12 in F-250/350 platform, only in F550 and RV now 00-05 in Excursion The torque of the V-10 is sheer amazing. My Excursion weighs almost 9,000 lbs and it can accelerate PDQ. It's disorienting to get into the Tahoe right after the X. The...

    I've had 3 of these new Tahoe/Yukons..no issues

    Had my '15 since May 2014. Build date April 2014 We've put 37k miles on her. I only have 5 complaints after all this time. My wife/I love SUV's. List is ridiculously long, and I've never seen most of the complaints I keep seeing on here. Glad for it too. Complaints (in order of...
