    2018 Premier w/transmission issues.

    @concur1, where did you get a lifetime warranty on a vehicle with such high mileage?

    Transmission fluid - 6L80 17 Tahoe PPV

    I did not end up going with Phoenix Transmissions. I had planned to get a U-Haul car carrier and tow it up. Turns out that the Tahoe exceeds the weight capacity of the U-Haul carrier. I would have to go across town to pick up a flat bed carrier. Given local traffic it realistically would have...

    io3 upgrade

    @falconK, yes, the OE backup just worked. Well, somewhat. The reverse guide lines did not work before the stereo upgrade. The stereo upgrade did not fix that issue. Was not a big deal to me so did not further troubleshoot.

    Transmission fluid - 6L80 17 Tahoe PPV

    I have spent hours researching, calling and asking questions of multiple local shops and remanufacturers. Finally I found another post recommending Phoenix Transmissions in Weatherford, TX. I called and immediately was comfortable with this outfit working on my vehicle. I let him tell me what...

    Transmission fluid - 6L80 17 Tahoe PPV

    @NickTransmissions, thank you. I had overlooked page 1 detail in your thread. Got the list plus the recommended torque converter with .050” or thicker converter clutch w/ billet cover from later in the thread. Again, anyone else have recommendations from experience in Austin area on...

    Transmission fluid - 6L80 17 Tahoe PPV

    Last transmission fail (older tahoe with 4l60) I purchased an upgraded reman and had it installed. It performed better than the original. But, when all was done I told myself I would do the swap myself next time. Unfortunately, the previous reman provider is out of inventory of this trans right...

    Yes, TCC slip at high duty cucles. Yes, clutch material in pan. Question - how do I know whether this is TC failure only vs internal transmission?

    Transmission fluid - 6L80 17 Tahoe PPV

    My '17 PPV is at ~120k miles. It had transmission fluid/filter change at 60k. I was thinking about doing it again soon. But, I am now experiencing a slight shudder infrequently in lower gears. Never at cruising. Also, when starting out from a stop sometimes just a very slight lag/jolt. Last...

    2017 PPV NEW MEMBER

    Interesting coincidence - got to the airport yesterday and found my 2017 PPV dead. Had to jump start. Got it home and everything was fine. Figured I left an interior light on. Then this morning found it dead again. Disconnected both batteries and found one at 12.5V and the other at 4.5V. Likely...

    io3 upgrade

    @2015TahoePPV, I haven't started working on it yet. The Texas summer heat has hit and I do not want to sweat through troubleshooting. Perhaps someone on the forum understands aftermarket steering wheel control interfaces. I do not know anything about it. My expectation is that the head...

    io3 upgrade

    @falconK, I configured and ordered the kit from Crutchfield. It included: - Metra 99-3015G Dash Kit - PAC RP5-GM51 Wiring Interface - Antenna Adapter - Jensen CAR110X I did take the wiring harnesses from Jensen and PAC to the bench to solder/shrink wrap together before installing in the car...

    io3 upgrade

    A couple of weeks ago I upgraded my 2017 PPV from IO3 to a Jensen 10.1" head unit. The kit from Crutchfield preserved my backup camera functionality even though it included a new camera, which I have not installed. The price was very reasonable and I'm happy with the large screen and the...

    I have a steering wheel audio control ?

    I ordered a steering wheel and clock spring yesterday. After some research my expectation is that I can add an ASWC-1 (https://metra-static.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/ASWC-1_Manual_Programming.pdf) and set it up directly as in resistive control mode without changing the cluster. I'll have all...

    I have a steering wheel audio control ?

    @2015TahoePPV, did you make any progress on this? I'm a new owner of a 2017 PPV. I am ready to order a new aftermarket head unit. I would also be interested to know if the steering wheel controls work with the aftermarket integration. I'm planning to work off of @JohnC12's posted instructions...
