    ‘16 Yukon Denali dash clicking & battery drain

    Sometimes (1/10 times?) when I open the door to the truck I hear a rapid clicking sound coming from behind the centre screen area. Didn’t think much about it as its 8 yrs old now but then found my battery would be dead if truck wasn‘t run for 2-3 days. The battery runs now whether or not...

    Tow squat and IRS: bad combo?

    Looking to replace my ‘16 Yukon Denali with a new Tahoe or Yukon. I tow a 6500lb trailer and while the levelling rear air shocks on the Denali‘S MRC do help I still get a 1-2 inches of rear squat while towing. This is not a big deal since it has a solid rear axle. But any significant squat...

    Air ride issues in cold winters?

    Any feedback from owners with air ride that’s been through a few cold winters? Thinking to replace my ‘16 Yukon Denali with a new 6.2 Tahoe Z71. I tow a 6500 lb boat traler a fair bit so want suspension leveling. But every winter here in the Cdn Rockies brings some -35C/-32F spells and I...

    DIY guide for 2016 Yukon Denali rotors and pads?

    Just to close the thread I started, did the 4 corner rotors and pads job + front struts. Quickjack TL7000 was nice to have, just add a piece of 2x6 in each corner and put the two rubber blocks on top. Need to be careful to ensure the Quickjacks are parallel (to keep the blocks from dangerous...

    Magneride replacement shock

    I just replaced the leaking front Z95 OEM struts (at 89k mi/144k kms) on my 2016 Yukon Denali with the Luft Meister units. I did all the research on Arnotts, Shocksims, Monroes, Fox, the Amazon knock-offs, and various combinations and realize fully I was rolling the dice with Chinese...

    Opinions on handling after Magneride Delete?

    Asked this in the other thread but its more relevant here: if you go with the Arnott strut as replacement for OEM Z95 magneride front shocks do the built-in resistors on the Arnott obviate the need for the otherwise necessary Shocksims module?

    More MagnaRide delete questions

    I have a 2016 Yukon Denali w 90k miles and front magneride shocks are leaking and now stiff. Rear shocks are fine and I do a lot of towing so want to keep rear components and air-leveling unaffected. In replacing the front shocks I am ok with stock ride height or ok with up to 1.5” leveling...

    Water immersion for boat trailer launch?

    Good suggestions, thanks. To answer B-Train, yes, this is pretty deep, hence my query. The centerlines of the hubs are under water, the exhaust tips are under, and the trailer wiring connector inside the bumper is under. This is fresh water only, for now. I make sure not to have the wiring...

    Water immersion for boat trailer launch?

    RE. A 2016 Yukon Denali: My boat trailer geometry + boat ramp angles require that the rear hubs get immersed and therefore, I assume, rear axle as well. How concerning is this for wheel bearings, axle vents, underbody electricals such as self-levelling pump, etc? I am weighing adding a...

    Wheel options??

    My '16 Denali came with 20" rims which I used to mount winters (new Blizzaks look great) and I am looking for 22's for new summer tires for the spring. Having a tough time finding anything in the aftermarket I like better than the CK164's (maybe these Black Rhino Mozambiques...

    Fix the rake on a '16 Denali?

    Thanks, very detailed presentation. Do you have any "after" pictures of a 1.5" rear drop ?

    Fix the rake on a '16 Denali?

    If rear springs are needed, maybe its a lot easier to just do a front ~1.5" lift via lower strut spacer?

    Fix the rake on a '16 Denali?

    Why do these vehicles come with so much rake? I can understand rake on half-tons and SUV's withOUT self-levelling since you want to allow for some suspension sag under a full bed load or tongue weight. But with self-levelling you'd think they could come more level from the factory.. looks so...

    Roof rack cross rails placement

    OP here, thanks for the info,I think I have what I need. It does seem very dumb that there's only these two arbitrary points. Common roof items like Thule/Yakima ski boxes and bike trays have very limited ranges for crossbar location.

    Roof rack cross rails placement

    I have new Denali arriving next week and the dealer will be installing the cross rails. I haven't had the chance to look at the mounting points but understand there's only one or two options for each of the front and rear rail. Can someone tell me what the options are (i.e. distances between...

    2015 Crystal Red v 2016 Crimson Red

    OP here, was able to view both reds side by side this weekend. To my surprise, on a sunny day the Crimson actually keeps its color depth and looks sharper. The Crystal gets just a bit washed out. But Crystal is certainly not a Fire Red or Candy Red, which elements are what I was hoping for...

    2015 Crystal Red v 2016 Crimson Red

    I realize Crystal is only in 2015 and Crimson is on the 2016. Its part of my decision on which Denali to go with. From photos I prefer the Crystal for its bright pop in the sun whereas the Crimson stays dark but again, photos can deceive, and was looking for some in-person perspectives on if...

    2015 Crystal Red v 2016 Crimson Red

    How do the two colors compare? Its tough to tell from photos since both change under different light and I've only seen the Crimson on dealer lots. Seems Crimson is a bit darker/wine colored? I like the apparent brighter pop of the Crystal in the sun and wonder if Crimson loses that. I'm...
