    Front Bumper Sensor Replacement Painting

    Someone recently reversed into our Yukon and caused some damage to a sensor. I took it to our local dealership who assessed the inner left sensor needs replacing. I got a quotation for $530 dollars ($290 for the sensor including painting, remainder for “labor” required to replace it). Needless...

    Diesel Crate Engine?

    I want to say it has something to do with emission regulations with diesels. I don’t know how NOx, SOx, etc emissions are regulated. Don’t they need special equipment to reduce them? Again, not sure.

    Interested in 2019 Yukon and have Question

    We own a 16 SLT with 20” wheels since new. 35k city miles, I live in a tiny island. Ride was ok with stock Goodyear GTIIs, pretty good with 285/50R20 Michelin Defender LTXs for the last year and some change. I think tire compound will make a bigger difference with whatever you go with.

    Future 2020/21 Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban

    Pictures don’t do most cars justice so I’ll hold my judgment til I see one on the road. I really don’t like the push button shifter. Its no better or worse vs the knob shifter setup imo. I also wished they somehow kept the nifty compartment behind the screen, but I don’t think with that...

    2015 Navigation GPS

    We had this exact problem that was because of a leaking/faulty antenna. It was replaced under warranty.

    The Unexplainable, Unresolved issue an expert LS builder and Dealership can't figure out

    I bypassed my 04 Yukon’s heater core a couple months back because ethylene glycol (antifreeze) in vapor form was leaking into the cabin. It had a sweet smell to it. I bypassed the heater core and the smell went away instantly. I’m not saying you have a faulty heater core or anything, but I do...

    A/C Condenser replacement

    Don’t mean to bump an old thread, but I recently found out about this. I read that 2017+ GM models switched from R134a to R1234yf, so maybe that had an effect? Not sure what year your Tahoe is. They appear to have similar properties, but further research shows the AC setup is somewhat...

    Future 2020/21 Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban

    Looks like they’ve done away with the nifty compartment behind the screen. Might’ve been gimmicky to some, but I really liked it.

    Thoughts on buying 2019 Tahoe this December? Before 2020's come out?

    I don’t think there’s a discernible difference upgrading from a 17 to 19, especially at the same trim level. I can only see upgrading to a 6.2 or LWB making sense. Also, as people said, next gen should release ~2020 which would undoubtedly be a massive upgrade in comparison and would be worth...

    Fueling Issues - What I’ve Done

    5 month update - I’ve been filling up regularly, using it on a daily basis with no fueling hiccups. There’s always something though, my blend door actuators are on their way out, second gear is slipping, my heater core started leaking and need to replace my engine mounts (I think, strong...

    Z71 Bumper PN?

    I dont own a Tahoe so dont take my word for it. PN 35301243 doesn’t show up here for the offroad package or non-z71 bumper. I’m not sure if its a direct fit (w/o modification) for a non-z71, but a google search came up with multiple parts required for a z71 bumper. That means it isn’t all just...

    LED DRL Mod

    Yes, I know it doesn’t. Only Yukons have the same LED DRLs across the board. Tahoe/Suburban LED DRLs have been discussed before: https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/led-daytime-running-lights.61550/ Its a BCM hackjob from what I’ve read but the 18+ Tahoe/Suburban DRLs operate the same way...
