Drivers seat movement at low speed turns
I was approaching this the same way you were - but note the rubber is just there to keep the clamp from sliding. So either the rubber or metal clamp can butt up against the white plastic part. You are simply preventing any movement of the plastic part. -
Any1 keep their ride as a spare vehicle?
Surprisingly it is not a gas economy thing. I'll be moving states and getting a company Colorado truck. I have two car notes now and probably need to improve my debt to income ratio to buy the house in the area where I want to live. I'll check with the mortgage gurus first. Took her on a...- Burby

Persistent Misfire cylinder 3
Question - did the dealer go right to the lifter or was this found after doing multiple other diagnostics? How did they get to the lifter being the issue and how much did the diagnostics cost before finding the issue? I've got a misfire on cyl 8. Tried sraying a can of seafoam into the intake...- Burby

Any1 keep their ride as a spare vehicle?
Anyone keep their ride as a side boo and if so what do you use it for when you do use it? I'm close to paying her off and it will be an extra vehicle in my driveway. She isn't a practical daily driver but we love her. Sitting there she is a thief magnet when outside and a garage filler when...- Burby

I'm actually more worried about pulling the cylindrical heat shield, boot and wire. And doing so without messing it up.- Burby

P0308 Misfire Code while road tripping
2016 with 40K miles. Was trailering around 4000# on a 1000 mi trip and the check engine light came on. A quick stop at Autozone to check the code and it showed a misfire on cylinder 8. I jiggled the plug wire a bit and after a new tank of gas the light went off. It came on again on the...- Burby

Anyone ever get this error C1117 Service Trailer Brake? Google searches make it seem common. Getting the error on my 2016 and now the truck has a sluggish start as if the battery is going bad. Going to do more digging and will update on what I learn. Edit - research shows that others...- Burby

Oh the good old days!
My dad (80) was harassing for me buying such an expensive ride. So I put together a little comparison for him - comparing the family's 1980's Custom Cruiser to my 2016 Suburban. It will be interesting to see what changes in the next 30-40 years...- Burby

You get what you pay for almost 70k total cost of Tahoe I feel my back up camera is !!
2016 suburban here and the rear camera is total junk. It is inexcusable and they or someone should offer a better drop in replacement in this day and age. How many backup bulbs are required? I may go that route. -

Drivers seat movement at low speed turns
Yep - reporting back that the hose clamp fix worked and it completely eliminated it. I used some cut up garden hose for the rubber part. The rubber tube piece only purpose is to keep the metal clamps in place. The 2 clamps are what prevents lateral movement of the white pieces along the bar... -
Drivers seat movement at low speed turns
My 2016 Suburban drivers seat has started to make noticeable movement during slow turns. A google search got me to Silverado seat movement. There is a TSB but the long term fix appears to be using hose clamps. I'm going to try tomorrow and will let you know if it works long term. Here is the...
