2012 Tahoe LTZ w/221k....should I even consider?

[tmt502]

Couple things I forgot in previous post:
1. oil pressure sending unit went bad at 200k. PIA if you have to change.
2. Replaced a-frames at 175k

Would the sending unit be a source of the oil leak I'm seeing?

Just about anything with a wire attached to it can be seen and tested by the Tech-2. It's the dealer level scan tool used to diagnose problems with our trucks. You can also graph certain functions, run tests and turn lights on and off, move the seats and so on.

That would be a good parts car, especially for Brent.

When I was looking for one, I steered clear of the Hybrids. Aren't the battery replacements big $$$?

Yes much $

I would check Ebay for US Sellers if possible and or ChinaCarDiags website.

Make sure you get the Candi module and 33.004 software with yours. Case is optional, I like it.

Does that tech2 help you diagnose air compressor problems and shock problems rear suspension Etc? And does it also help diagnose problems with the cruise control? The truck seems to have two different brake light switches on them and the one brake light switch located higher was causing the cruise control to fail. I also couldn't diagnose the suspension problems with that but I know the old-fashioned way to troubleshoot and sounds like you did too
