    Stock Air Suspension Question/Issue

    The alignment should not have changed the ride height. Also, suspension height should not change steering wheel position—only toe does that (the tires in relation to each other when looking down from the top). Sounds like the alignment person either didn’t know what they were doing or they...

    Wheels spin

    What air pressure are the tires? Of those are a lot higher or lower than stock, the tires will be easy to spin.

    Batteries?

    It’s been said that batteries die in August but don’t fall over until January.

    Is clicking from the front suspension normal?

    Sounds like a CV joint for 4wd.

    Batteries?

    Replaced mine at about a year old. OEM do not seem to be the highest quality. I went with Odyssey and am extremely happy.

    Opinion: Upgrade to GM Perf. exhaust vs GM Perf. brakes?

    I had a guy once tell me, “If I can’t go that’s one thing, but if I can’t stop that’s something else entirely!”

    2022 Chevy Tahoe Speaker distortion

    The stock speakers are pretty bad. I didn’t think so until I replaced them with “medium quality” aftermarket units. Night and day difference!

    Real Life MPG 5.3 / 6.2

    One other point to consider is ethanol vs non-ethanol. I try to run non-ethanol as I usually get 10% better and can go a little farther on a trip between fill ups. My truck seems to like 87-88 non-ethanol best. It is a 5.3. Most the time I can only find non-ethanol premium, or 91octane where...

    Real Life MPG 5.3 / 6.2

    I agree completely. Seems as though GM went way too conservative on the fuel trim. Cold temps=high fuel usage. High temps=high fuel usage. Cold engine=high fuel usage. Only time I get reasonable mpg is at comfortable temps. I am surprised they don’t burn out the cats on these things quickly.

    DFM disabler released

    I think part of the confusion here is that Range has two models—pre ‘21 that plugs into the OBD2 port, and a unit for post-‘21 models that fits between the ECM and wiring harness. I found both in my research. I think what AES/ASE said applies partly to pre-‘21 models. It did have some...

    DFM disabler released

    I don’t loose memory seats or phone pairing? Is this a “feature” of the new google trucks? I just lose the fuel trim, and automatic power window up/down which the truck relearns. Otherwise, everything else is spot on. This is a great addition.

    Long Travel Kits

    Great info here—but your in the wrong section. The 2021+ have IRS, not the solid axle of old. Any info for the 21+ vehicles?

    2021 5.3L Tahoe Alternator voltage?

    Its my experience with these trucks that the battery is a huge part of the electrical system. GM seems to have the worst agm batteries (or they sit in factory and dealer’s lots and get run down). Anytime I start to experience weird electrical issues, I put in a good Odyssey (or other good...

    DFM disabler released

    I got mine installed this weekend. Makes a HUGE difference in driveability of the truck. Mine does not enable DFM on deceleration, so I can actually decelerate in a controlled fashion going down hills! Braking is mich smoother as well when approaching a stoplight as the engine helps hold you...

    DFM disabler released

    I had a previous 2016 tahoe with AFM disabled for about 70-80k miles via a tune. No troubles. Put it back to stock before trade in and no issues whatsoever. I also used a good synthetic oil the entire time. Cheap oil = expensive problems

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    I am trying this one: https://t-harness.com/products/2013-2024-gm-bose-t-harness-r2g Disclaimer—not installed yet, and I am still waiting for the ANC disconnect harness. Hopefully install everything this weekend.

    DFM disabler released

    The Range device does eliminate both. However, some of us already have the auto start/stop eliminator installed. I, too, was wondering about both installed and if they would conflict. I am glad to hear there are no issues with both.

    Anyone bleed/flush the brakes on a 21+ yet?

    Subbed. On my previous 2016 Tahoe I flushed the brakes twice without cycling the abs and they were fine.

    Anyone have a pic of the underside of the rearview mirror surround/trim piece?

    They all come off pretty much the same. I installed a rear view camera mirror on my tahoe and the rv mirror trim came off pretty much the same as the escalade.

    Who has Tuxmats in their truck?

    I don’t have them, but one thing I would be weary of- I have Weathertech-is if they curl up any by the door, the door will catch them and curl them up on the door panel quite an annoying bit. Then they catch on feet/shoes whatever and become a hazzard. When they start curling up, I have to try...

    2022 Tahoe Gurgling Noise Up Front (Engine?) Somewhere

    If its the heater core, you are low on coolant or have air in the system. If you have a sunroof, water can get trapped in the a-pillar area. There is a tsb to retrofit the water drains with hoses lower in the front fender to get them out of the high-pressure area.

    Any Denali Owners Found a good A Pillar Passenger Grab Handle Solution

    I tried to retrofit the 2021 Silverado A-pillar trim with grab handle to my 2021 Tahoe. Angle of the windshield is the same, with clips in the same place. However, the dash is totally different leaving large gaps at the base of the a-pillar trim. I’m bummed because I really appreciated this...

    2023 Yukon Spare Tire Upside Down

    Yes. They are all that way. The wheel will not allow installation the other way.
