Dexcool got a bad name when it first came out it caused problems in some of the GM cars along with people not changing it out when it was recommended, it was reformulated at one point, you can switch to green coolant if you’d like to but you need to get every last drop out. I’ve got Dex in my Escalade, Silverado and previous Tahoe and never had an issue, always changed it out when it should be.

There were issues early on with it but that was the 90's I think. I've had no issues with it in my 00 burb and it's got 260k miles. Only cooling related things I've done have been a water pump and 2 radiators

Cool thanks for clearing that up guys.

I think when I replaced the radiator in my 01 Tahoe I got concentrate dexcool and distilled water and mixed those 50/50 should I do that with the denali or just get the premixed stuff? I'm gonna do a flush soon now that its starting to disappear. I'm thinking about a new thermostat while in at it too

I’ve always used the pre mixed stuff, when we’re the radiator hoses done last?

Looking good! Some of us have completely destroyed drivers seats lol.

Just finished my drivers seat with Katzskin leather. It matches the 2tone door panels perfectly. The seat bottom where the controls are is a pita!! I'm sure the rest will go faster now that I'm over cutting perfectly good leather lol.

I used Durafoam from The Seat Shop since my bottom was destroyed. It's super comfortable like a couch. I hope it lasts. Figured I'll scrub the interior while I'm at it. Too many dirty hobbies lol.
