Took to the dealer to have the headlight issue fixed and an oil change done. Happy they filled the DEF too, makes life simpler.

While waiting to talk with the service manager, noticed the left headlight assembly rubbing paint away from the fender due to there being no gap space. So going back to the dealership in 2 weeks to discuss best option with their body/paint guy

How much did they charge for the DEF? From another thread on the bumper issue it sounds like the problem will return after the repair / re-spray..

My bumper issue is with the headlamp/fender.. not the bumper/fender which I believe is in a different thread.

This was my "complimentary" oil change / 27pt inspection that they give you for the first time. So I'm not sure how much they would typically charge for DEF, it was all $0 on the invoice. Have 4100 miles on her since July. wanted to change the oil myself between 1-2k for the first time, but time has not been in my favor

Drove back from west to east to, cruise was set around 76/77 for half the trip. Random lane closures and backups caused some delay, but overall very happy with the straight freeway results with the babymax.

Overall 22.6 mpg on the 470 mile trip that had a portion of backroads on the way out due to construction and waze routings.

Took the badges off on Saturday and gave it a detail on Sunday. First vehicle of ours I’ve washed and waxed in 8ish years… what a huge vehicle lol. And an fyi to everyone thinking of rebadging; the rubber adhesive wheels work great BUT be very careful. The paint on our hatch was super thin and as soon as I hit the adhesive a chunk of paint came off with it, see the last pic. It was the last one too. So I have more of a reason to get the grill and chrome trim painted black.View attachment 369458View attachment 369461View attachment 369462View attachment 369460
Just had a similar experience removing the letters on my lift gate. The paint is thin and fragile. It happened where the “O” goes. Luckily I can touch it up and cover it by moving things up a little when I put the black badges on. First time experience for me after debadging and rebadging many cars. Argh!

Plastidip is cheaper and easier to change color on the badges. Wish I would have did that on my Tahoe and saved $300.
