    What’s this sound on startup?

    Recently my 2016 Tahoe with 75k has started to make a squeak on startup. Doesn’t matter hot or cold. I thought I could post a video, guess I’ll have to research how.

    Front strut replacement

    I appreciate the input. I just replaced the rear with Monroe Oespectrum shock, I’ll probably put Monroe on the front. Even if they are not leaking, after 7 years and 70k, they are probably getting a little tired.

    Negative effects of a tuner, and supporting mods?

    Im new to the gas game, been driving diesels for the last 15 years. I’m looking for something to make my 2016 Tahoe a little more spunky. Are there any negative affects when adding a tuner? Do I need to add an exhaust and intake to benefit, or can I benefit from just a tuner like blackbear?

    Worth swapping tires?

    Went ahead and put new Michelin’s on the rims. Like I’ve read before, the suspension is definitely tighter with the 22s over the 18s but it still rides really good.
