    Custom tunes vs standard

    Thanks for the responses. Since he's not going to be driving it like a race car, I'm hoping I could get something in the $500 or less range that would fit his needs. I noticed Diablew has some custom tunes for $480 or so, and let's you choose options, maybe these would be a good middle ground...

    Custom tunes vs standard

    Christmas is coming, my dad bought a (I think 2011) suburban to rack up miles and keep miles off his truck. Has about 104k miles on it. His only complaint is how "ridiculously sluggish and slow it is" and how "you have to almost floor it to get it to get the hell out of the way". He loves it...

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    Update just in case anyone else runs into this. Mechanic shop tried a different head unit also, didn't work. They tested voltage to everything, it all checked out. They put the new actuator on I had bought, it turned some but then quit working just like all the rest. They went and bought an...

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    Well, new head unit doesn't fix it, so back to square one. Probably just going to have to bring it to someone at this point

    Great, thanks! Wrecking yard tomorrow to plug in a different head unit then, we'll see what happens.

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    Is it possible for the head control unit on the dash to be the problem? I did some research and it mentioned how the actuator is given a voltage signal, and different levels of voltage tell the actuator what position to move to, ranging from 0V to 5V. It didn't say what voltage is what...

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    I will probably drop it off at the shop early in the week and let them deal with it. It's unfortunate that it couldn't be a simple cheap part swap, but it's starting to look like it's a deeper issue

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    Found another part from O'Reilly's that looked exactly the same, but with a different part number. Repeated the swap for the 4th time, but noticed this time that the position the actuator is in when it comes out of the box, is floor mode. So I manually set the door under the dash to floor...

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    Just did the process with the disconnected battery and recalibration. When I turn to the key to the on position the door moved about a quarter of a turn and made a pop sound and never moved again. Nothing made any more noises. I waited the 5 minutes and then turned the key off and waited a few...

    Thanks for the reply, I definitely missed a lot of steps then.

    "Mode" door actuator issues - SOLVED

    2002 Tahoe, doesn't have the auto climate control, just the basic normal one. AC got stuck on defrost, so that would be the mode door actuator above the brake pedal. Took it out, put the new one in, and all the controls were backwards. So I slid it off, and (This is apparently where I...

    Clunking when turning left

    Got to mess with the Tahoe over the weekend, and had someone watch the tie rods while I moved the tire. When I was by myself, I could tell the tire would move but it was hard to tell what was moving underneath or if the opposite tire was just moving with it. With someone watching they was...

    AC compressor howl

    Interesting, I'll have them check this out on Monday. Even though I'm not paying for it, it would be nice for it to be something simple instead of of them tearing the whole thing apart again
