    Fading and chipping window trim on Escalade

    I'm wondering how hard they are to replace? I won't have mine in 3 years. I just moved to Dallas and don't know many of the good body shops yet. I guess I could stop by a few to get prices on painting them all gloss black. Thanks, Todd

    Fading and chipping window trim on Escalade

    My '07 Escalade is in mint condition except the black plastic window trim around all 4 side windows has suddenly started to fade and chip. The dealer wants $2K for 4 new trim pieces installed. I can buy from Rippy Cadillac direct for $850. My question is has anyone changed these themselves...

    Derali trans cooler installed in Denali

    Curious if you are still happy with the Derali cooler? I just bought one for an '07 Escalade and plan to install it over the winter. Was removing the front bumper required? On my Escalade I can remove the grill area and seem to have access to everything you do in your pictures. Could you...

    Leaking fluid near the cv joint(picture included) - need advice

    I have an appt with Cadillac to replace the seal on Monday. Nothing like $310 to replace a $20 seal. I'm hoping they don't find any additional issues... Thanks, Todd

    Leaking fluid near the cv joint(picture included) - need advice

    I bought a '07 Escalade a few weeks ago and have crawled under it each weekend since i bought it to ensure there are no leaks the dealer cleaned up prior to my buying it. Unfortunately, I found one. It is very slow but, a leak none the less. It is coming out of what I assume to be a seal on...

    Corsa Sport or B&B??

    I'm looking to install a cat-back on my '07 Escalade. I had MBRP on my Denali and really liked it but, wanted to try something new(to me). I really like the Corsa Sport. I keep seeing people making comments that B&B is hands down the best sounding but, whenever I see videos of the exhaust it...

    Escalade leveling kit and the need for a strut spacer??

    I just added a 1.5" lower spacer on my '07 Escalade so it sits level. The kit came with a strut spacer(maybe 1/2") that I did not install. Those with lower spacer kits, did you install any kind of upper strut spacer(looks like 7-8 spacers stacked)? With the lower spacer not affecting the...

    Difference between 403HP Escalade and 380HP Denali motor?

    What is the difference between the motors that creates 23 more horsepower in the 2007-2008 Escalade over the same year Denali?? I know that in 2009, both have the 403hp motor but, 2007 and 2008 the Denali showed 380 while the Escalade always showed 403. The motors look exactly the same. Did...

    Leveling an Escalade - same as Denali?

    I sold my '07 Denali AWD and picked up a low mileage '07 Escalade AWD. Are the front suspensions the exact same? I assume they are. I'm looking to add a 1.5" or 2" lower spacer to get it near level. Curious if others have done this and if there are any issues? I noticed some kind of wires...

    "Service Battery Charging System" warning

    After a little driving, the light went off. I'm guessing it is on until the battery is fully charged. Todd

    "Service Battery Charging System" warning

    This is on a '07 Denali. I was checking some lights on a trailer and had the key in the power position(not running) for about 15 minutes. When I started it up, this error message was displayed. I let the truck run for 5 minutes and took it down the road but, the warning won't go away. This...

    Derali trans cooler installed in Denali

    Thanks for posting this! I've been looking for a bolt in kit where I don't have to fab up everything. Have you towed with it yet? I'm curious what kind of drop in temperatures you are seeing? I watched the video and it looks like the factory Denali trans cooler is still used in conjunction...

    Smoke coming out of tailpipe

    Might be something simple like a pcv that is letting oil by but, that would probably not happen at idle. Hopefully it isn't an internal issue. Let us know what the dealer diagnoses. I'm really curious now. Todd

    Anyone running an Air Lift 1000 kit on the rear of a '07+ Denali??

    On a boating website I frequent, some other Denali owners say that even with a 6800# boat and 600 pounds of tongue weight that the OEM air leveling should raise the rear to the same height as without the boat. Is that right? If so, I have a sensor or an air system that is not operating right...

    Smoke coming out of tailpipe

    Like others said, it could be a head gasket failing. White smoke is often coolant burning in the combustion chamber. Check your coolant level. Also, one tell-tell sign is if you drain the oil, see if the oil comes out light brown and look for any signs of coolant. Based on my experiences...

    Anyone running an Air Lift 1000 kit on the rear of a '07+ Denali??

    I tow a 6800# boat all summer long about 180 miles per weekend. The Denali tows it great but, I am tired of having the rear squat 3" lower than the front. I'd like to keep it level. I found that Air Lift sells a bag kit that is manually filled, when needed and manually deflated when not in...

    Is there a direct fit, upgraded transmission cooler out there?

    I'm looking to upgrade to a much larger transmission cooler on my '07 Denali. I'm not looking to make modifications and change hoses, etc. Is there an upgraded kit that simply swaps in without tons of extra work? I've seen reference to Tru Cool but, not sure if they are a direct fit or not...

    12" sub box behind 3rd row

    I'm looking for the same thing. I think I'm just going to have one custom made so it fits nice and tight and every time I hit the gas/brakes I don't have to worry about it moving around. Todd

    Towing and safe transmission temperature?

    I towed our boat home from the lake yesterday and very pleased with the Denali. My H2 struggled the entire way and I was always on the edge of overheating. The Denali towed great. I rarely ever dropped below 5th gear, even in the huge hills of Tennessee. It got up to 190 while driving under...

    Towing and safe transmission temperature?

    I thought all the Denali's had an external transmission cooler factory mounted in front of the radiator?
