    2011 Denali Suspension

    Well I have it working again. I thought I would post the resolution in case it might help others out there in the future. So I went through and tested the 3 fuses that I found references to for the suspension system and they all tested good. I then located the relay for the system and with the...

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Yeah this is kind of my thinking. The one I am looking at has it. I suspect this might be why the one that the OEM uses is not all that big.

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Are you concerned at all about hitting minimum transmission temps? The person that sent me the link to the Trucool 40k is reporting the same that he doesn't see temps over 150. However he didn't think installing the bypass was worth it. His truck (07 Suburban) didn't have the OEM aux cooler so...

    08 Denali body molding tape?

    Once you do one, the other three are pretty quick. I always have a few rolls of that tape because I use it for other things so I just did all 4 of mine. The biggest time saver was masking around them on the door before starting so I could quickly slap them back up there and move on to the next...

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Yeah, the point is that 210 on a hot summer day I am fine with as well. However I was seeing 210 at 73F or so means that when it is 90+ it probably won't be at 210 anymore. Filter and fluid changed about 40K ago and getting ready to do it again. This is why I am considering addressing this...

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    Yeah that is the same aux cooler that I have on mine. I was just expecting temps a bit lower than 210 being air temps (low 70s) were not that hot out. I wouldn't think much of it if we were in July with air temps in the high 90s. I guess the good side is that with the OEM aux cooler the lines...

    08 Denali body molding tape?

    I used this when I did mine a while back. https://www.amazon.com/3M-03614-Scotch-Mount-Molding-Tape/dp/B002JOVUO0/ As others said. Make sure to clean off the old tape first which is a long process. I also placed blue painter's tape on the door before removing them to mark the location. I could...

    Aux Transmission Cooler

    I have a 2011 Denali and it has the KNP (Cooling, auxiliary external transmission oil cooler). I think it might be standard on Denali trim level trucks. Anyhow we bought a new camper this spring and went out on our first trip this past weekend. I normally keep an eye on transmission temps while...

    2011 Denali Suspension

    I have a 2011 Denali with the air suspension. Last year we had a rear shock fail. It wasn't a leak but rather a sensor or check valve failed. It wasn't a case where the compressor was running constantly though. I only knew about the issue because I had the Service Suspension message in the DIC...

    Running Hot In Snow

    Yeah we do clean it off when stopping but when on a road trip, I don't want to stop all the time. It is different if just running around town. I was just wondering if the Denali grill being flat with holes is more prone to icing up. While that could be cleaned, there was no cleaning the snow...

    Running Hot In Snow

    Last Thursday night we were driving to Milwaukee for a wedding. It started out as rain but at around midnight it transitioned to sleet and then snow. None of the roads were being plowed and we were in lots of semi traffic. Eventually snow started dropping off the semi in front of us as it built...

    Dead Battery overnight..

    Check your trailer plug. Pin 4 on the 7 pin trailer connectors is a run to the battery. Not sure on these trucks as I haven't checked mine yet but in the GMT800 series they would save a buck by not putting the 40 Amp Fuse in the fuse block that is needed to activate this. I found this out when...

    No auto with hood open

    I haven't looked for the sensor but if you don't see a pin switch and such, then it likely is in the hood release latch mechanism.

    Memory seat,heated steering wheel & mirror issues on 2007 tahoe LTZ

    - Memory seats - Can you go through the information center and see if seat position recall is enabled? I think it can be set to on/off. This is the case with my 2011 Denali. - Heated Steering Wheel - While you have the button for one, I do not know of a Chevy LTZ that has a heated steering...

    Looking to buy

    Not sure off the top of my head. I know the 20s on mine are OEM because it is the Denali which comes with the Chromed Aluminum 20s stock or 22 as an option. Junk yard is a possibility. Try checking Craigslist. You may find someone upgrading OEM rims and want to offload them. eBay may be another...

    Looking to buy

    Congrats on the new ride. If it weren't for heated and cooled seats I would agree with preferring cloth. While I have the 20s and like the looks, many times it is better to have the thicker sidewall. Less likely to jack up a rim if you slide into a curb in the winter. Not that I am willing to...

    Floormats Husky, Weathertech or other?

    I went with weathertechs and am happy.

    Anyone try this catch can?

    http://www.protuninglab.com/bialraenoilc2.html I kind of like the sight glass on it and $22 is way less than $90 or so that the other one that is posted here runs. I don't see why it won't work. I don't see a mounting bracket but I can fabricate something up easy enough. Heck, I was thinking...

    center console rear pocket ?

    Have they tried to look in the pickups? Sierra or Silverado. I would imagine this is a part for one of them that doesn't have RSE. Maybe an extended cab. I know my Father In Law's Sierra 2500 Crew Cab has RSE but it is also fully loaded. Many times parts departments get hung up on what you say...

    Looking to buy

    Around here in MN we were seeing 07-08s in the 20-25K range with mileage in the 80-105K range. Granted we were more focused on the LTZ. We wanted the Nav not so much for the Nav but for the full size screen for the backup camera and DVD for the kids. We have a camper so the ease of hooking up a...

    Denali headlights not compatible with SLT?

    OK, silly question. I have a Denali but how do the headlights differ from that of the SLT? The only difference that I think I could see was the side marker more clear on the Denali than the regular Yukon.

    How to program new key and fob + WTB

    I should add that I have read that some lock smiths can program key fobs. Maybe try and call around to see who has the best price.

    How to program new key and fob + WTB

    I have a 2011 Denali and went through this. Keys are easy and you can do it provided the 14 is the same as my 11. I went to the dealer and had 3 keys cut but they were $30 a pop because they are chipped. Personally I like 4 keys, 2 main ones with fobs then 2 spares. I keep on key hidden in the...

    Hard Water

    We also have a problem with hard water. When I wash the truck this time of year it turns to ice before I can dry it off..... Anyhow back to your problem. Do you have a water softener? We have our house set up so there is two feed lines going through the garage to the outside faucet. One is soft...

    navigation discs

    Thanks, I assume mine has never gotten the free update. I have a 2011 with 2011 map disk. Worth a shot. Thanks again.
