    Amazing the difference a 9 band eq and sub freq control can make even on the awful BOSE setup. I finally got some free time today so I decided to try to track down my noise gremlin but it did not go well. The noise was gone completely when I went to troubleshoot it today, then on my way home it...

    Sorry I missed this I have been out of town for a bit. Yes I have engine noise and I have yet to track it down. I actually removed the Advent unit and it was still there without any Headunit installed. My theory is that it is coming from the BOSE amp. My problem is the engine noise is faint and...

    I was using the blue set, not sure if it is the same set or if there is 2 different ones. If there are 2 sets you can probably get them both for around $10 bucks and become a professional trim panel puller!!! lol

    Broken Door Handle

    Wow you must be a professional at replacing these at this point lol. Kinda odd that the chrome ones do this so often. It sounds to me like GM needs to find a new chrome door handle supplier. I wonder if the aftermarket ones have the same issues. Thanks for all the info guys. I'm gonna try a...

    It's a pretty easy install. Make sure you get a set of panel pullers I use the cheap $5-$8 set from Harbor Freight. It's soft plastic and you don't have to worry about scratching your dash or console. The entire install took me roughly 45 minutes and that was with some special splicing because I...

    Broken Door Handle

    Has anyone had this problem? Looks like the handle has pulled free of one of the metal pegs but I am not sure if the peg comes attached to the handle or if the peg is part of the door. Trying to avoid pulling the door panels, was hoping I could just use some epoxy or better yet a dab of 5200 and...

    Another gas mileage thread.....

    16 is pretty impressive and that's the 6.2 engine city driving? If so that's awesome. I don't use the manual shifter at all. I can't stand the column placement. I had a Lexus IS and used the manual shifter all the time, but that was on the floor and much easier to shift. I had a BB tune on my...

    Another gas mileage thread.....

    Lol believe me I know the feeling I just got my license plate in the mail last week and I am already 2k in on various mods. I have decided I am in love with 22" CK375's and I see a headlight retrofit in my near future so there really is no end in site. I purchased the Denali because I though...

    Another gas mileage thread.....

    I feel like this thread has totally derailed from mpg at this point, but since it is your thread I am happy to answer ;) lol Check cdellose's link that is where I got mine from. I could not find a local vendor and Walt over at ADC mobile is pretty much the authority on these things so I called...

    Another gas mileage thread.....

    That's not the stock unit I pulled that and put and Advent unit in. I hated the GPS and lack of Blutooth on the stock unit so it had to go, but I wanted to keep the stock look. The DIC shows 11.7 mpg but I am not sure when I reset that and the Advent HU is more accurate since I physically enter...

    Another gas mileage thread.....

    I have an 08 Denali your mpg looks about right. I have stock 20" wheels, engine is stock aside from an Airaid intake. This was my last tank of gas all city driving. I will admit I have a bit of a heavy foot when the wife and kid aren't with me so this could probably be improved on a bit with...

    07 Yukon random engine noise in rear speakers

    99% of the time when you hear engine noise (which is actually your alternator) in your speakers it is a bad ground as suggested. Do you still have your original battery? I ask because what many people don't realize is the best electrical noise filter in your car is the battery and intermittent...

    Can't remove 2011 Yukon taillight...

    Just give them a solid tug after you remove the screws they will pop off. They have 2 little pegs that pop out but they take a good yank.

    The real 2014 tahoe?

    Does look boxier than the current NNBS. That could be the trash bags playing tricks on me. I can't wait to see it without those on. The oval on the grill to fool everyone is a nice touch lol.

    Very nice! I love the silver. I don't think you will miss that SLT.

    starting issue

    Sounds like a dead battery to me also. You don't really get a warning now a days they just die. If it's completely shot you can even have problems jumping it.

    Hack job

    I wonder how many people are gonna bid on this thing thinking it is the real deal. It took me a minute to pick up on the chopped side.

    Safe

    Gm provides a great mounting spot just under the front of the dash right between the defrost vent and the window. You don't even need to remove the dash piece. Just pop it up and slide your GPS puck in place. You probably won't have the metal tray pictured but the empty spot will be there...

    Brake bypass

    One shouldn't have anything to do with the other. I think you have it right. Sounds like your installer may have knocked a wire loose.

    Ok.Ready to do this mod

    I love this mod and would do it in a heartbeat if it weren't for the no spare part, but I have horrible luck and drive on to many bad streets. I have had to depend on a spare twice in the past year.

    2012 radio software in a 2011 Denali?

    have you thought about the Advent OGM1 unit? It's kinda pricey (still cheaper than going stock) but has a lot of features and you loose very little functionality from the stock unit. I just installed one in my 08 Denali a week or so ago and have been pretty impressed with it. I hated the stock...

    XM Radio

    On my 08 it's channel 0. It may take a minute for the code to pop up after you switch to the channel.
