I'm wondering if my LT autoride is really an LT.

I did not ask the seller because of the LT Autoride sticker on the pillars and the sound of a compressor that goes on when you start the engine, but I miss some options here.

I'm reading the sale brochure of the '03 'HOe. the brochure with the white 'hoe on the cover.

It says The LT has an automatic climate control as standard, mine is manual.
It says the console 2nd row audio controls are standard. I have a small storage area up the cup holder, that's all.

I also have a personnal/professional trip computer though it should be optional on the LT.

Outside mirror are not power-foldable.

Can It be a Canadian special package?

Did you run your vin on carfax or decipher the RPO codes in the glovebox? I have an 05 LS with Autoride, rear radio, manual hvac, and manual mirrors.

Hi,
I've not decipher my Vin on Carfax. I've done it through a PDF file I've found while browsing the net.

The RPO sticker? I presume you're talking about this one:

Never deciphered. How do I proceed?

LT sensitive most likely means light sensitive so that it "auto dims" when hit by headlights and stuff. The heated mirrors kick on when you use your front defrost I believe.

Jacob is correct except the heated mirrors turn on with the REAR defrost, newbs:fc5716bd: lol.

I think the manual HVAC could be special ordered in an LT. I've seen one or two other Tahoes that were very optioned but had manual HVAC.
