    2017 Denali torque converter/fluid problem?

    Has your vibration been confirmed to be torque converter caused? Happens when cruising under light throttle most often between 45-65mph and you can watch the tachometer jump a few hundred RPM when it occurs? If it truly is torque converter clutch slip it seems from my research the...

    2017 Denali torque converter/fluid problem?

    Wife returned the Denali to the dealer Monday as I was tied up at work. Dealer talked her into letting them perform the transmission update,..flush/fill/software,..and she left in a loaner. We have driven the Denali all week and have not noticed the "shudder" at all so hopefully this was a...

    2017 Denali torque converter/fluid problem?

    I think returning may be the best option. I have always driven/purchased Ford products but my wife talked me into a GM product because she loved the Denali,....I guess this proves "all things that glitter are not gold".:p

    2017 Denali torque converter/fluid problem?

    We have an appointment first thing in the morning for a complimentary detail and of course the transmission/shuddering problem will be the first order of business. I am concerned that changing the fluid is a temporary fix for a permanent problem and if that is the case I would rather invoke my...

    2017 Denali torque converter/fluid problem?

    Yesterday I purchased a 2017(late 9/23/17 sell date) Denali with 29,700 miles on it. It was a CPO so I have extended bumper to bumper warranty 12months/12,000 miles after the remaining factory expires and an additional 5 year/60,000 powertrain so that will get me close to 90,000 miles. My wife...

    Level with magneride?

    I have expanded my search for a new Tahoe/Yukon and have found some Yukon Denali's that I like. What ever I purchase I will add the biggest level front and rear I can find as I am planning on running 305/55/20 tires. Does the magneride cause any problems with installing 2.5/1.5 level spacers?

    Clues to axle ratio Tahoe/Yukon?

    I am looking at 2015-2017 Tahoe/Yukon. I have no use for the brake controller but would prefer the 3.42 axle ratio, so I just need to look for the GU6 code?

    Clues to axle ratio Tahoe/Yukon?

    I guess I should have been more clear,...I am looking to purchase a Tahoe/Yukon and would prefer the higher axle ratio for towing and am having a hard time knowing which axle the vehicle has just by the add. Is it safe to assume the brake controller present in pictures means it has the 3.42...

    Clues to axle ratio Tahoe/Yukon?

    I am planning on towing and putting larger tires and the Tahoe/Yukon I purchase and it would help to know the axle ratio but most do not have it listed and those that do I am not sure it is correct. I think there are two options, 3.08 or 3.42,..is this correct? Is it safe to assume if the...

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    I have not noticed that! Yes, 4 owners in 42,000 miles doesn't sound right. I would question the dealer about it but they would give some crap answer that would just frustrate me.:rolleyes:

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    The dealer with the 2017 Tahoe LT w/42,*** miles just called and dropped the price to $38,000. This makes my decision even harder! I am pretty sure the 2015 Yukon SLT is a later build,....I can't remember what it was but one of the features was only available 2015+. Here are the two I am...

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    Yes,....I have spent more time than I care to mention on those websites! I have just about decided to make an offer on the 2015 Yukon SLT. They are asking $44,000 and they had the vehicle for sometime,...I think I will offer $39,000 and see how they counter.

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    I am located in East Tennessee. Test drove a 2017 Tahoe LT today with 42,*** miles on it. It was nicely equipped, leather,navigation,bose,...but did not have the captain chairs, power rear seats, or the exterior chrome package and just the basic wheels,..I think they where 17". The wheels do...

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    The Carfax is clean,....price was $48,*** and now is $44,***. I can find lesser equipped 2017 Tahoe's with similar miles for around the same price. I am having a hard time spending this much on a 4 year old Yukon. I guess it comes down to how important the "fancy" stuff is. I think I may...

    2015 or 2016,..Tahoe or Yukon???

    The Yukon is black and so is the shark fin,...curious what difference this makes? I have found online that the Yukon has 100lbs. less towing capacity as the Tahoe. 100lbs. is not very much just thought it was interesting as I will be towing a boat a lot with which ever I choose. After some...
