Corsa Touring cat back is the answer. Not cheap, but this week is the best time to look for one. I had the Corsa Sport on my 5.3 burb, and it never droned on hwy, but jolted neighbors awake on cold starts...
Ebay has them from time to time - keep an eye out. I had one for my 13 Avalanche and have my current one, and both were purchased used off ebay. $250-275 and when you sell you get it back, just make sure its not locked. I had to upgrade the license for my 18s ($50?), but the 1 license worked for...
You 100% have Magneride. I replaced mine a few months ago with AC Delco Z95 shocks from Rock Auto. I did it myself except I had a local shop do the spring compression for the fronts = you have to reuse springs (Im fine spending $60 not messing with that). OEM do not come with a full strut with...
What about the 2 beers you get to drink while changing your own oil - will the dealer let you drink em in the waiting room? Jokes aside, its a good price if the dealer isn't too far away. I still prefer doing my own since Im done in 30 minutes...
Carmax gave me 39K a year ago for my 18 LT burb; I HAD to take that for a 5 year old truck. I saw it listed a few weeks later for 47K and it was gone in 2 days. Crazy! Carvana only offered 31K. So I drove a carmax 2020 MDX Aspec for the full 30 days and turned it back in (just not my style}, and...
LED were better than stock on my burb, but I really didn't like my lighting until I added a fog kit that uses H8/11 bulbs - which I also added LEDs to. Even on my Denali with HID, I have to use my fogs to see worth a damn...
Yeah that damn 6.2 rear dif cover was kind of a PITA to remove and replace - I had to pull the panhard bar to get it off and on. I had my eye on a Yukon cover on AMZ but it was for a 5.3 drivetrain. Cheap would be to drill a hole and add a helicoil with a plug. The only thing is its not needed...
So the seats have been progressively firmer from gen to gen - my 2004 had super puffy bolstered lux; the 2018 Denali - not so much. The trend has been to keep up with euro specs which is firm. If you already have the 6.2 (which is worth it every time when it comes to upgrade) just go to an...
The last 3 failures I have seen documented on here and you tube involved the non AFM lifters. Dont spend 3K for "piece of mind" when it may be wrong. Tune it out and never go over 5K on oil...
Yes, diablosport tuner can remove AFM and speed limiter, plus control pedal sensitivity and tire size -it will not tune 10 speed though. The 6.2 is worth every penny. The burb/XL is better on highway stability wise, but the shorter body is still good. Get a 18-20 Denali or RST WITH RST...
Swathdiver is so right when he claims the timing pull begins AFTER you already do a little damage. Gotta haul a load in the heat? Gotta whip into traffic? Gotta tow a trailer? Gotta haul ass from your hoe bag's ex chasing you in a 5.3? You can't change what already in the tank in those...
it wasn't hard. Had to pull the whole front bumper cover. 6 screws and 6 pins on top, 7 screws around each wheel well, and 8 screws and 2 pins on bottom plus a couple tabs. I had all the fasteners out in about 20 minutes (just have a 10mm, 7mm, and t15 ready to go), then pushed out clips for...
Swapped out the stock Denali grill for a black one today. This was a pretty cheap one from AMZ ($170 or so delivered), but everything lined up nicely. Couple hours and 2 beers. I actually like it with the stock red emblem. Slowly de-chroming, but it was too humid to paint today. Mods keep me busy...
I want them, but I have seen a few reviews complaining of led failures within a year. You cant replace the bulbs individually, so you would have to take the whole front clip down to exchange them. When you consider the $1.5k price, thats a no go for me...
Would you be happy if you switched for the seats and something else major fails? If you like everything else, what about custom upholstery? For much less you could get something truly badass. Maybe even rich Corinthian leather. I love seeing the interior transformations on Motor Trend (Bitchin...
This is also the first time I have seen AFM and transmission failure linked. Seems GM could easily do a recall and fix a huge thorn in their side with a simple flash if this is accurate. I have the 10 speed so I cant tune it with this (or any AFAIK) tuner, but it does tune the the 6L80. I was...
