Glad to hear that you tackled and solved the problem Joe! Congrats on the bun in the oven too! As for the Yukon, get rid of the Forester and get another Yukon! They are made for commuting! Sure, they do not get 30 mpg but they are far more comfortable and FAR more safe to drive. That alone is worth the additional fuel expense in my house and has been for thirty years. We have all been seriously injured in car accidents from driving small cars to "save money on gas", never again.
tahoe hybrid big suv with decent mpg (i'd get a 2013 model though)
run that ***** in M4 still get 18-20mpg in the city v8 ONLY mode,, i figured losing 2 mpg is better then getting a new engine.. sure i can get 26 on the highway still with V8 HYPERmile it.(i'll give it a try next week i'm going to take a short cut through the forest it's pretty much all down hill so i can DFCO the 37 miles )
it can stay in DFCO quite a while.. i noticed a trick I can keep it in DFCO while lightly pressing the gas (prevents heavy engine braking/regen) and drops into 6th gear [EVT gear]
i was messing with it today tricking the transmission into [EVT mode] while in m4 so I can get Eco 6th gear with v8
this how i manipulate the transmission into give up those extra MPG
M4 Disables Active fuel management only..
