    Wow great mpg

    I get approximately 28-30 mpg with my 2022, 5.3 on a flat road with the cruise set at 55-60mph. The cylinder deactivation makes a big difference.

    Fuel efficiency drop in newer models ?

    I get about 32 with the cruise at 60 or so, on level ground. 2022 5.3 Tahoe, 4x4.

    Update: Brand new Tahoe left me broke down in heavy traffic

    Good luck with a Stellantis product. Run away from that as fast as you can!

    2024 Yukon XL Diesel - getting towed

    Sad that we all got screwed by not being able to move our vehicle without it running! My 2022 battery went bad and was blocking my other vehicle which left me stranded. Why the hell would GM manufacture a vehicle that can’t be placed in neutral and moved a few feet, without it being running...

    Benefits of the diesel?

    You don’t keep them long enough to have problems. Smart.

    Benefits of the diesel?

    You will see problems at about 80,000 miles when you need a new DPF. Not cheap. This will erase all fuel mileage savings over the 5.3.

    Main Bearing Failure with 6.2L at 3,200 miles

    Did they require premium fuel in those days? I bet people running 87 octane in the newer 6.2 is not helping matters. This is why I chose the 5.3 for my Tahoe and haven’t looked back.

    Main Bearing Failure with 6.2L at 3,200 miles

    This is why I installed a start / stop harness to avoid the unnecessary abuse of the starter.

    Another 6.2 failure

    Yep, 6.2 requires premium fuel. This is exactly why I chose the 5.3 for my 2022 Tahoe. I love my Tahoe!

    Exploded Dash Diagram Needed

    I have a 2022 Tahoe. I installed the AutoStop Eliminator and during the install I determined one of the factory panel clips on the driver's side vent panel assembly is defective. Where can I find an exploded parts display in order to order the correct replacement clip? There appears to be at...

    2023 Tahoe LT Duramax (w/ Luxury Package) - Initial thoughts after 3k miles

    I suspect that when you see the bill for replacing the oil pump wet belt and the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) you will have wished you had the 5.3. I wanted the baby diesel but the added cost of operating this engine erases any and all fuel savings.

    2022 6.2 Tahoe Black Soot

    How long are you idling the engine before driving?

    Lifter anxiety

    Sequoia? They used to be reliable but the DI Turbo engine changed that. Sadly, new vehicles are less reliable than just a few years ago.

    2022 Tahoe Rear Liftgate Applique Chrome Defect

    It has the push “nail” plastic pieces. Make sure you use painters tape to protect the painted lift gate that it mounts to, when prying. The clips are tight and a fork clip tool would be best used to concentrate the leverage / pressure to the exact area of the clip. Don’t forget to remove the...

    2022 Tahoe Rear Liftgate Applique Chrome Defect

    When see how many snaps and how TIGHT they are to the painted piece, you will understand. I initially tried to pry a corner up and insert a flat long screw driver into the hole to release one of the many snaps and it became quite obvious to me that the only thing I was going to do was damage...

    2022 Tahoe Rear Liftgate Applique Chrome Defect

    HUGE job. You have to take the inside plastic cover off then unscrew the painted piece. Once you have that off, you have to cut the tabs off of the appliqué to remove it. Snap the new appliqué to the painted piece and the new bow-tie to the appliqué and screw the assembly to the hatch and...

    How to tell if AFM is active?

    I also updated to a 2022 Tahoe and can’t find the V8 to V4 indicator. I gave up looking and accepted the fact that GM wants consumers to forget about this feature, as it only draws attention to potential problems and furthers the discussion. Having said that, I get great highway mileage with...

    2022 Tahoe Rear Liftgate Applique Chrome Defect

    New 2022 Tahoe Premier delivered in June 2022 with a blemish on the rear chrome applique. (I waited nearly 8 months from order to delivery of the Tahoe.) The dealer ordered and subsequently mailed me a new trim piece that arrived this month (October). The dealer is 250 miles round-trip for...
