    What are the risks of letting AFM self destruct?

    Your best bet would probably be to jump to the current gen with a diesel. I bought a meticulously maintained example with 94k miles on it. The transmission hiccups are random, the engine will randomly idle funny (dealer told me that’s common for the 15-20). Infotainment glitches are rare, but...

    What are the risks of letting AFM self destruct?

    Just got rid of my 2013 Denali XL in February with 310k miles on it. Had a pretty pronounced piston slap on cold start for the last 90k miles but still ran well. Cleared up once the engine reached temp. Tuned out AFM in 2017 but left the hardware in place. Never had an issue. Got rid of it only...

    Is This Tire Wear Normal?

    My experience has been that if you have full lock turns on a rougher surface such as asphalt, you will get that type of wear. I have the OEM spec Bridgestones on my truck and even with that increased wear due to the pressure on the outer treads that I was able to safely get over the 65k mile...

    07-14 Engine Hours to Mileage Comparisons

    2013 Yukon XL Denali bought with 97k miles. Now at 259k with what seems like a low 7548 hours. Original engine, second transmission. Tuned out DOD about 120k miles ago. Engine definitely starting to get a bit rough. Fuel mileage been dropping

    Keys locking in Tahoe

    If you had your second fob on you when exiting the vehicle, it will auto lock EVEN if the other fob is inside the vehicle. And yes, it will give you the triple chirp too, but give it 5 seconds and it’ll lock.

    2021 Yukon Denali - Auto stop/start - any news on disabling automatically?

    There’s a product out there called “range technology” that claims to address the auto start/stop issue with a dongle that plugs into the OBDII port. They also have a version to address the afm/dfm although it’s unclear if they can be both in the same unit. They have a disclaimer on there that...

    Denali 22" wheel inserts

    Yes. I put them in since I figured that having the open holes would be a place for corrosive junk to build up.

    Denali 22" wheel inserts

    They are OEM reps in 20”. I picked those up from a guy in Mesquite, TX via eBay. I’ve had them almost 2 years and love them. Removing the inserts was the best thing for the overall look.

    Denali 22" wheel inserts

    Have you thought about just removing them? I pulled them out of my wheels and they look a lot better.

    Tahoe avalanche conversion

    I’m pretty certain that the version they sold down in Mexico actually did get that update in 03 which has the Avalanche clip.
