    HP Tuner for 2016 Tahoe L83/6L80

    Have you looked into Diablosports I3 tuner? I got one for my 2016 Yukon to disable AFM/DOD thru a tune and it works like a charm. It also can make changes to the TCM which I will be looking into to try and preserve the tranny.

    2016 Yukon SLT Rear Inside Door Handle

    My rear inside door handle will no longer open the door but the outside handle works. I assume there is a cable that may have broken off or became unattached. How hard is it to get in there and to reattach or replace cable?

    Which one do i want?

    I agree about the v6 turbo charges engines in the expeditions. Ford made a big mistake in my book. I owned 2 expeditions. The last one I kept for 10 yrs. When I was shopping for a replacement the v6 totally turned me off. I ended up with 2013 Nissan Armada which I didn't really like but got a...

    Would this be a good battery?

    I replaced my factory AC Delco battery on my 2016 Yukon with a Walmart Everstart AGM battery 3 yrs ago and so far no issues. Just make sure to fully charge the battery before you install it due to time spent on the shelf..

    Tech 2 or Range AFM Disabler?

    I think I will go with a tune. My 07 chrysler 300c just dropped a valve seat and tore up a couple pistons at 79k miles. I want to prevent anything similar happening to the Yukon.
