    Threshold for extending an extended warranty

    Hi there ! Many apologies if this has been asked before but does anyone know what the threshold date/mileage is for extending and extended warranty ? I have the extension of the limited bumper to bumper manufacturers warranty (it extends the bumper to bumper coverage from 3 years / 36k to 5...

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Just a quick update : took the Yukon in to see about this issue again . I had poured dye in the coolant tank a few weeks beforehand . The dealership pressure tested the system for a day , but couldn’t find any leak or dye residue . Basically implying that it was in normal operating specs for...

    Recommended warranty that covers emissions ?

    Thanks ! Looks like there’s been some back and forth on what the current GM branded warranties cover but I’m not sure if I’ve seen anything definitive on whether they cover emissions on our diesels . I’d love to purchase a warranty for my 22 3.0,Denali . It’s been great this far aside from an...

    Recommended warranty that covers emissions ?

    Hi all . I was wondering if anyone knew of a VSA warranty that includes coverage of the emissions equipment that was backed by GM I realize that in previous years , there was the GMEPP , but it seems that most of these current warranties are 3rd party backed.

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Super helpful ! Yes I’ll try to do my due diligence just in case the dealer is short on qualified techs . When the dye is in the system , do you think a thirty minute drive , then parking it overnight be enough for the dye to manifest itself if there is a leak ?

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Thanks so much StephenPT and Steiny93 for your insightful comments . Huge help about the possibilities and how these systems are designed . Sounds like there may be a hose or fitting loose . Will try to get under the car as well with a bright light to inspect myself I’ve sent the vehicle in to...

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    looks like my coolant level is low again after 5 months . When the dealer looked at it in February , they mentioned that sometimes the factory underfills it , and they didn’t see anything out of the norm . They added a little coolant just short of the seam but it’s been steadily decreasing in...

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Thanks for all the info . Looks like I’ll be scheduling an appointment to get it looked it at . I need to get the third row recall done anyways . Last thing we need is for the engine to overheat on a road trip lol

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Thanks for the pics and this super helpful ! Your charge air tank seems a little less full than mine . I don’t know much about these systems , but do the two tanks transfer coolant between them , thus the fluctuation in levels ? I just got back home a few minutes ago and noticed that the...

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    great info ! Given the fact that I checked the coolant level this morning and it was at the same level as in the pic before I started the car (I would assume cold ) , do you think that the fluid is at an acceptable level (below the halfway point seam)?

    Engine coolant level in surge tank ?

    Hi there ! I’ve had my 22 Yukon xl denali duramax for about 7 months and love it ! I opened the engine bay today to look around and noticed that the coolant level looked a little low in the engine coolant surge tank (about an inch below the big halfway seam) . The attached pictures were taken...

    Seam on lift gate

    That’s really cool to see . Always fascinating to see the engineering that goes behind these great vehicles . Can’t imagine the amount of R & D they have to do to make the frame modular and support the trucks with the live axle and the suvs with the IRS

    Seam on lift gate

    Hi there ! We’ve had our Yukon XL Denali diesel for about 6 months and love it! Out of curiosity , does anyone know if this seam has a functional purpose or is it just cosmetic ? At first I thought it was the bottom edge of the lift gate glass , similar to the 3 gen explorers where the lip was...

    Where do you get your oil changed?

    Thanks for this info ! Changed the oil for the first time a month and a half ago and it was so easy . Simply crawled under the car lol . The only reason it took 45+ minutes was the waste container process and not trying to be an idiot and make an enormous mess :)
