    Brake Pad Monitor

    I had this posted in the wrong section so repeating it here. I have a 2023 Suburban Duramax. On the info page is a brake life monitor. Does anyone know how it measures brake life? Also, how accurate is it? Thanks. Padraig

    How are you cleaning your Yukon's stock exhaust tips?

    I have a performnce boat with through hull exhaust, The stainless tips get dull. After cleaning with soap and water I apply vinegar, let set, then wipe them down. Come out clean and shiny. Might be worth a try. Padraig
