What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Did for me?

Strange.

I do know the extra filler cap I bought for my ‘07 Denali fits on my ‘13 Denali as well as my ‘07 Silverado. Wonder if Advance has a glitch in their system.

Has anybody else had this issue?? This is the one I installed. There is no tab inside the neck for the thread on the old cap to engage. It's all smooth inside. And the old cap only fits down to the o-ring, and not past it. What other cap is out there that would just push fit in? maybe a different generation cap??? I am lost here and not happy. I guess worst case I can find an expansion plug to fit it. Like Caterpillar uses on their engines.

Probably the corresponding Dorman one. https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p...iller-cap-42315/11454153-P?searchTerm=Oil+cap

In looking at this, it says it doesn’t fit a 2009 Tahoe 5.3 or my 2013 Yukon 6.2. Did you by chance get the wrong part?

His is a 2007. But it shouldn’t matter. It says it fits a 2007. And 2008. But not 2009 for some reason.

I think in 2009 they changed the oil fill tube style. The earlier ones had a short neck and a big curve, and the later ones had a taller neck, I think. 2009 is also when they moved the dipstick from back near the trans dipstick, to up closer to the front of the engine.

Edit: Added a picture. And I think it was the 2000-2001 5.3 that got the really short one like this.

Odd.

Here are some pictures of my ‘13 with the extra cap I had for my ‘07 (don’t ask) and the one from my ‘13. Both fit in the fill tube.

That's exactly what my old one looks like. The o-ring won't fit in the tube and there is no tooth for that thread to catch onto.

I like that up front dipstick!

So after I put in the new battery, obviously the clock reset. Now I can't get the clock to put a time in. Anyone ever have this problem?

Maybe the Dorman one fits both tubes. The caps don’t need to screw in BTW. My Clean Side Separator just pushes on, the o-ring seals it up. But if I were you Id just but the OEM tube.
