    Pulled the plug

    Welp we love this thing so far, got all the fluids changed out. Transmission feels a lot better. Couple things I’ll do down the line are probably an exhaust and maybe a K&N cai. Got a leveling kit on it too probably swap the wheels and tires down the line for some 22’s and all terrains. The...

    Gotcha so more than likely I have it, I’ll keep my module plugged in then.

    Pulled the plug

    Fluids finally arrived, placing a catch can order today. I was trying to figure out if I actually have DFM. Window sticker doesn’t mention it and RPO YK9, I think that’s the correct code isn’t displayed. I’m assuming I do and have a module in place already to just keep it in 8 all the time...

    Pulled the plug

    We love it so far! I plan to drop and change all the fluids asap. Just tinted it this morning, few more goodies on the way. One thing I ran into is we got two keys but one is key 3 so the memory features don’t work. Any way around it or is that a dealer visit? Also got a bumper to bumper...

    Pulled the plug

    Welp I purchased a used 22 Yukon SLT, I pick it up tomorrow and have been reading mixed reviews. 5.3 2wd with 70k on it. We are excited! Tips tricks ? Anything I should immediately check for?

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Correct, originally I wanted to delete all of it but I heard conflicting stories with it being the hybrid model and read one where they couldn’t smog which would have been a problem for me to register it. So just opted to replace everything, afm is active and working all though I’m probably...

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Believe it or not I ordered the OEM GM cam through AutoZone online only because I was able to use the 20% coupon they have with home delivery. Worked out perfect and in fact did come from GM. Everything else I used Rockauto.

    11 Denali Hybrid

    I’m sure I saved everything on the labor side of it, I’m about $2000 into it all said and done including fluids.

    Lifter on seven was stuck and ate the cam, the bearing weren’t terrible but I replaced them anyway. I went with stock everything including the cam.

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Alrighty guys I said I would be back, so it took me a little longer than I thought but basically pulled the engine and rebuilt it. New everything besides rings,pistons, and bearings. New oil pump, timing, cam, cam bearings, lifters, trays, seals, valve seals. It was a journey but all in all not...

    I turned it on and took the valve cover off and I’m pretty sure it was the last Rocker on the drivers side has no movement at all.

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Luckily got it towed how only started it a few times to see what’s going on. The scary part is I don’t know about the previous owners and how long they drove it or didn’t drive it. I’m kinda confused as to if it’s the lifter as well because everything I keep seeing is there should play if the...

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Thanks for the reply! Definitely wanna hang onto it as the interior is really nice and it was taken care of to some degree. The paint can use a refresh but nothing some wrap can’t make look better for now if I’m soaking the money into a crate motor if that’s the route I have to go. Rumor has it...

    11 Denali Hybrid

    Picked up a 11 Denali with approx 130k on her. She’s knocking but I’m not convinced it needs a motor, did a little digging and found rocker in cyl 7 with no movement. Being that I don’t know a lot of history on it should I attempt to get that lifter to unstick and hope it works or tear it apart...
