    Transmission?

    None whatsoever. The cooler is mounted on the struts just forward of the condenser and not touching it. So plenty of air movement around the cooler without affecting the air flow to the condenser or radiator. My engine temp reads 210 no matter the outside temperature and my trans temp never...

    Transmission?

    To be honest I didn't even notice that comment until I looked back. I don't see where you can go wrong with more filtering. The main thing I would recommend is improving the trans cooling system. #1 either eliminate or ungrade the transmission fluid thermostat and #2 add an additional cooler. I...

    Transmission?

    Most 5.3 engines come standard with the 6L80. The 8 speed is primarily for the 6.2 that year.

    UPDATE******Transmission flush at 107K, transmission shudder at 111K♂️‍♂️‍♂️

    Warranties are included with a purchase from the manufacturer free and Insurance is third party and worthless.

    UPDATE******Transmission flush at 107K, transmission shudder at 111K♂️‍♂️‍♂️

    My money is on a used transmission from a junk yard, I hope I'm wrong. Most third party warranties (really aren't warranties at all, just crap insurance policies) aren't worth the paper they are written on.

    P0174 - Lean Bank 2 - 2017 6.2 Denali

    Look for a vacuum leak in the intake. Idle the engine and spray starting fluid around gasket surfaces and any connection in the intake tract.

    Spark plugs

    Spark Plugs do not wear out with time only miles, same for the wires. Save the money and change them together in another 50,000 miles. I have a 2016 also with 101,000 and I just changed my plugs and wires and I believe I could have gone another 40,000 miles easy. And the rear plug on the...

    Coolant overheating 2019 Tahoe - SOLVED

    Sounds like a bad thermostat. Just did mine about 4 months ago. Same issues.

    AFM DFM Conundrum

    I installed a Range disabler in my 2016 Yukon with 50,000 miles when I purchased it in 2019. I figure if the lifters don't get to collapse they won't be able to get stuck collapsed. A little over 105,000 and zero issues. And fuel economy is not compromised at all. There is no good argument not...

    AC intermittently stops working

    Check your condenser in front of your radiator for excessive debris and clean it if necessary. If it's too dirty it will create too high of refrigerant pressure causing the system to shut down.

    Starting issues

    First check your battery voltage (a fully charged healthy battery is 12.6 - 12.8 volts) 12.3 and less is considered extremely low state of charge. Even with a technically dead battery the functions you mention would still run, just not enough power for the starter motor. If your battery is older...

    Transmission Temps??

    I kept the newest trans fluid thermostat from GM (154 degrees) and added a Mishimoto transmission cooler and now don't see temps over 165 even towing a 24" tritoon to Lake Havasu, AZ in 115 degree summer.
