    Looking to purchase a GMEPP

    Hey Folks...getting ready to purchase the GMEPP warranty. I got a response back from the dealer that doesn't sound right. Basically send in money and you get no paperwork. See below for quote in green. Is this right? Currently GMEPP does not send any confirmation. However, in about 45-60...

    First 100+ mile drive on the Tahoe

    Wow..my 2025 Z71 Tahoe with 5.3 will get 16-18 at 75mph, and I drive conservatively.

    Dimmer for panel

    Broken or user error? 2025 Z71Tahoe. I know where the +- dimmer is for the panel. Mine doesn't seem to work. No matter whether I push the buttons several times or hold them down, nothing changes. Its on full bright...which is tough at night. I've looked at the owners manual, on-line, a...

    4wd usage

    Thanks for input. The last 4wd vehicle I owned was a couple of decades back so wasn't sure of todays thinking. I live near the beach with some moderate to deep sand. I'll do some driving in 4wd there.

    4wd usage

    2025 Z71 Tahoe 5.3 4WD. Do you ever exercise the 4WD even if you don't need to use it? Is that a good thing to do occasionally?

    How are your 10 speeds doing?

    2016 with 100k shifted like butter. 2025 Z71 Tahoe with 8,000 shifts like an old farm tractor with a bad clutch. It's shifted roughly since new. Dealer says...you guessed it....normal.

    2025 Z71 Tahoe audio screen went plank.

    It's starting to happen more often. It will start changing scale rapidly, switch from carplay to android ( I don't have an android phone) and occasionally change the radio station. I'll take back to the dealer after the 1st of year. I can hear it now...we couldn't replicate it so no trouble...

    2025 Z71 Tahoe audio screen went plank.

    On Thankgiving day I was driving. After about an hour, the audio screen just went blank and there was no sound. I was on the freeway so couldn't turn the car off and on right away. In about 5 minutes it came back on by itself without me doing anything, but all the things I had...

    2023 Denali - looking to buy - what should I watch for at 42k miles?

    Ive had both. I didn't notice much in 6.2 vs 5.3 except when towing. The 6.2 is much more powerful when towing and will get to freeway speed much quicker. Normal daily driving...not much. Would I buy an older 6.2. No.

    Boat Tow

    Ive owned new a 2008, 2016, and now a 2025 Tahoe Z71. Each Tahoe had(s) a 5.3 engine with tow package. I've towed much heavier than yours for hundreds of miles without issue. The button on the gearshift for trailer will cause it to stay in each gear longer and to higher RPM's. I always used...

    Oil Change on new Tahoe

    To follow up on my original question....The dealer did a full service as part of the first free one. I asked for an kept the oil filter. I have a filter cutter than doesn't leave any metal. The filter showed no signs of metal after 5000 miles.

    Question about 25/26 Tahoe

    Red is for seats without a seatbelt fastened. My 2025 Z71 Tahoe has it.

    Oil Change on new Tahoe

    What should be included in the first free required oil change? Do they do a full service and tire rotation or are those billable items. I'm scheduled tomorrow.

    Oil Change on new Tahoe

    I have a 2025 Z71 Tahoe with 5000 miles. I'm anxious to change the oil and first maintenance, but the app suggest I should wait until 7500 miles. What are your thoughts on first oil change. It's included in the original purchase so no cost.
