    Looking into buying a used Yukon Denali XL, need input.

    I have seen those. I have to get the broken stud out first. Gotta pull the exhaust manifold to get to it. Two broken bolts at the very back. One broken bolt at the front. The manifold is slightly warped but my mechanic says that we can get it resurfaced for about $20. If I had time to mess with...

    Looking into buying a used Yukon Denali XL, need input.

    I have a 2007 Yukon XL Denali with about the same mileage. I bought mine 2 years ago for $13,300. $8500 sounds like a good deal even with peeling paint. I have had a leaky rear main along with a cracked flywheel. Killed two birds with that transmission pull last year. I also have broken exhaust...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    I don't remember seeing a Cheeburger Cheeburger. There is a ice cream shop like that I think. Been a little while since I have been there though.

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    Yea. It was a long haul. It is worth the drive in my opinion. It took us about 13 hours to get there and the same to get back. That's typical for the trip back with traffic in Atlanta but, going down is never that slow. I think that it had a lot to do with the 4th of July week. I made it to...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    BTW: I told them to shuffle their feet. I'm not sure that they listened to me though. Haha! We were only in water that was about thigh deep. Ft. Myers Beach is shallow way out. Stingrays must not be very aggressive since she stepped on it and it brushed my daughter's leg and it just swam off. I...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    The Gruven parts definitely look like the way to go and I don't think that it would be too hard to do. I'm thinking about replacing/upgrading both sides.

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    A guy told me one time that stingrays are in the waters on the beach all of the time and people don't even realize it. He said that he has seen them from the pier in Gulf Shores, AL. That's where we were. I'll have to check Gruven for those parts.

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    No shark teeth. We did see a small stingray multiple times in the ocean on Friday. My step daughter stepped on it once and then later, it swam by my daughter brushing her leg with its fin. I just happened to look down and see it swimming by. That was a first. Though, we saw plenty at discovery...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    I just returned from a trip and I put over 1500 miles on my Yukon. The warning never came back. I haven't had a chance to check the oil yet though. However, I have had an off and on "Service Air Bag System" show up along with a problem with the Power Folding Mirror on the drivers side. I have...

    Wow! That sounds low. What caused that?

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    Never been to the Seminole Gulf Railway. That looks like a good time though. We may check that out. I have been looking at doing an airboat ride in the Everglades but, I haven't booked one. Any suggestions?

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    We are going to Ft. Myers Beach for a family Vacation. I like Sanibel but, we decided to go to Ft. Myers Beach this year instead. Looks like you are on the opposite coast. My grandparents once had trailer in Hobe Sound. Back in the 80's and 90's, they had a house in Jupiter. I've spent some time...

    82 Worlds Fair...In Knoxville. They still have the Gold dome on the tower from that. I think that it has a restaurant in it now. Thanks for the tips. I had a subscription at AllDataDIY from back when I was chasing down a wiring issue. I forgot all about that. I don't have BCM code reader and it...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    I just checked with her. She wasn't parked on a hill when she started. I think that it was already on before she called me and that she didn't notice it until she was about 5 miles down the road because there was already a warning about the low windshield washer fluid. If you get used to...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    She was actually driving down a fairly level highway when it came on. Though, that could've been only when she noticed it as we also have a windshield washer fluid low warning on. She said it flashed between the two. Steep grades on I-24: You must be talking about Monteagle Mountain between...

    Engine Oil Low, Add Oil Warning

    So, my wife called me yesterday to tell me that our 2007 Yukon Denali had displayed "Engine Oil Low Add Oil" in the DIC. Of course, I assumed that the oil was actually low. I told her to pull over and I left work to go meet her with oil that I picked up on the way. Upon checking the oil level on...

    2007 Denali Yukon blowing fuses

    So, this problem came back and I have worked on it all weekend using a tester. The door isn't the problem. I unplugged the entire door harness and it still popped the fuse. I also pulled the right front turn signal and it still blows the fuse. The funny thing is, I have a ground on all four...

    2007 Denali Yukon blowing fuses

    Just to update: I worked on this a little today with intention of isolating the problem using a box of fuses and trial and error sacrificing the fuses (of course). First, I tried to determine if the turn signal switch could have been bad by using the hazard lights without the turn signal. It...

    2007 Denali Yukon blowing fuses

    Tonight, I noticed that my turn signal on mirror along with the front turn signal were not working. After I got home, I noticed that my interior light wasn't working. After finding a blown fuse in the courtesy lamp slot, I changed it. The interior lights came on but it popped the fuse as soon as...

    Front Dash Crack

    I think that they are helping out to some extent. I read somewhere that people have been able to get their dealerships to contact GM on their behalf. Some were successful and some were not. The dealerships are your best route as they have the connections with GM and the clout to be able to talk...

    Front Dash Crack

    I found a petition on change.org that said to complain to NHTSA about the problem. However, NHTSA is concerned mainly with safety hazards. Therefore, I doubt that is the correct route to go. Although, some people believe that this a safety hazard, GM does not agree with them. I agree that it...

    XLDenali06's Build Thread

    Yea. I noticed the same thing. Everything has high 100s or more for mileage. Most have 200k or more. I was looking for a lower mileage 05-06 Denali (because I like that body style) but after I missed on several including a low mileage 02 Yukon w/ a optioned 6.0, I started looking at 07-up. I...

    So...I bought this Saturday...

    I have gathered that there are many fixes for this problem. Seems like the brake switch fixed it though. No warnings since changing it but that Yukon doesn't get driven ever day either.
