    Aug incentives? Help driving deal further

    What dealer in ATL are you dealing with? No one I spoke with could come anywhere near the 10K off that Laura was offering.

    Oil Pressure Gauge at 0

    Likely culprit is bad oil pressure sending unit. My mechanic was able to replace it without removing the intake manifold...his trick is to deflate the front tires to allow easier access to the top back of the motor.

    Rear main engine seal replacement!

    Right around $1K or so. I had it done.

    Am I making a mistake? Single vs. dual speed transfer case

    The other big difference is you get the 3.08 rear end as opposed to the 3.42 Performance is noticeably slower. Drive it and make sure you are comfortable with the pickup.

    7 pin plug for trailer lights

    Test at the socket first. Then check your plug side on the trailer. Also - are you testing the lights with the trailer hitched to the truck? If you aren't, you may have an issue that shows due to the ground not being complete all the way to the trailer. My boat trailer has a 5 way flat. I...

    What gasoline brand and what octane do you guys use?

    Quiktrip or Costco. Both are TopTier. Kroger also an option because of the gas points...

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    On the 10, I used the V1 hardwire kit and tapped into the black yellow wire on the passenger side of the dash. On the 08, I'm using the mirrortap. I'll try to get some pics tomorrow.

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    On 07-14 there is switched power in the mirror. All you do is insert the pins into the plug.

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    My bad - it's Mirrortap. The Invisicord is good too. Both are on Amazon.

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    Yep. Invisicord is the same thing.

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    I'm using the Blendtap for my V1 in the 08. Use it hard wired to the black/yellow wire in my 2010 Yukon. The Blendtaps are less than $20 on Amazon.

    What is the best time to purchase?

    Laura adds discounts towards the end of the month. The $73K Denalis can be had for around $61K if you hit it right...which is around 16.5% off.

    Switched 12V+ in overhead console or mirror harness?

    You can also tap in to the yellow/black wire on the right side of the dashboard, behind the removal trim piece. If you are installing a radar detector, you can pick up a cord that can tap into the mirror/onstar harness. I installed one on my 2008 and it works perfectly. Look for Blendtap on...

    2016 Denali XL - GMC Refused to buyback!

    I wonder if one of the conditions of the buyback is a confidentiality agreement or Non Disclosure?

    Hello new guy here. My kid got stuck in seatbelt, cut him out. Now what?

    Seat Belts are under warranty for either 6 or 7 years. I'd be headed to the dealer to find out why it happened and to get the belt replaced.

    Crate motor... worth it? anybody tried it?

    Crate motor is fine, but if you put one of them in front of a high mileage transmission that hasn't been rebuilt, you will likely have problems......

    Dealership fumbled repairs

    Since when does a GMC dealer not work on a Chevy? Had warranty work done for years on my GMC at the local Chevy store. Never an issue..... Also had work done at the Cadillac store....they have nicer loaners.

    2016 Denali XL - GMC Refused to buyback!

    As long as the service advisor and dealership acknowledge the issue I don't think you will need an attorney. GA lemon law is pretty clear. They get 3 tries...You notify them in writing......they get one more try. If still not fixed the buy back process begins.

    2016 Denali XL - GMC Refused to buyback!

    Have you started the lemon law process?

    which fuel to use?

    I run 93 in my 6.2. It's got 173K on it and runs perfectly.

    2016 Denali XL - GMC Refused to buyback!

    Georgia lemon law gives them 3 attempts to fix it. Additionally O.C.G.A. Section 10-1-783(d) requires them to give you a detailed repair order every time they attempt a repair. I'd get a copy of yesterday's RO (closed out) as soon as you can. They know that by "leaving the ticket open"...

    2016 Denali XL - GMC Refused to buyback!

    tenbigblinds, are you here in the ATL? If so, who is your dealer? That makes a huge difference. I nearly bought a 2015 Certified Yukon over the weekend....until I drove it. Hood shook and it boomed so bad that it made me nauseous on a 5 mile interstate speed test drive. I may end up with...

    2007-2014 Yukon Denali AWD?

    They were available in both AWD and 2WD. Mine is an AWD.

    Oil Pressure Sensor gone bad: Remove intake plenum or no?

    My shop was able to replace the sensor on my 08 5.3 without removing the intake. One trick is to deflate the front tires...the couple inches that the vehicle is lowered and tilted forward makes it easier to get in there and see what you are doing.
