    Just got a 2013 Tahoe PPV

    What did you do to get the remote start to work?

    Were you getting an engine light/ code with your issue?

    Rough idle when warmed up only, no codes

    I’ve cleaned throttle body, air filters good. The temp sensor I’m referring to is the one that tells the computer to lean out the fuel because the engine is warm. I’m wondering if it’s giving a wrong signal and the computer is giving a little too much fuel for the temp? It runs smooth when cold.

    Rough idle when warmed up only, no codes

    2014 1500 Suburban w/ 71,000. Runs real smooth on start and until the temperature gets half way to normal. Then you can feel little shakes or slight miss fires. Tried Techron a few times with little gas in the tank, checked for vacuum leaks with starting fluid, not finding it. Bad temp sensor?

    Running boards or step bar worth it?

    I love the running boards. Not a fan of the bars or pipes with grip tape or a little plastic pad. The trucks I've had and seen with the boards almost always end up with cleaner less rusty and pitted door bottoms or even the rocker panels. PPV boards are thin and sleek looking also.

    17 ppv upgrades begin

    Ok, if you post some pics when it's finished, that would be great. What about getting the spotlight holes filled and painted? Cost?

    17 ppv upgrades begin

    So, If you update your 2017 PPV to a steering wheel with radio controls and keeping the ppv radio, will it need to be reprogramed ? Is it the dealer or can a car audio shop be able to do this? Qurious on what it cost to get rid of the spotlight holes in the doors?

    Eibach Rear Springs on CLEARANCE

    More coils, softer, same drop as stock PPV. I was going to replace my original PPV rear shocks too, seeing they are all rusty looking, but they are now actually able to control the softer bounce and work how they should.

    Eibach Rear Springs on CLEARANCE

    I read on here of a guy using the Eibach lowering springs with good results for a softer ride. I went to the Eibach website to find the exact pair on clearance . Only $58.07 with free shipping for the pair, normall price was $220. Easy install and huge difference in ride. Not bounceing all the...

    Back Pressure Gage/ Cat Test for Blockage/ Hot Floor

    I don't have a scanner yet, I do have a Diablo Predator 2 tuner which does read codes from what I read. I was going to get one of those lazer temperature reader guns. I think I have everything I need in my garage to check the psi so may as well do that. I would like to hear if anyone else has...

    Back Pressure Gage/ Cat Test for Blockage/ Hot Floor

    Has anyone ever pulled the o2 sensor to see if there catalytic converter was plugged? My passenger side floor gets pretty hot. I'm thinking I can pull the o2 sensor and adapt a psi gage to the hole and check my back pressure and then pull the rear sensor and check there also. Just wondering...

    PPV Center Caps Painted

    Painted them with rubber paint, plastidip, and then cut the line around the bowtie and pulled it off to show the chrome. Has a bumpy texture but not too bad. First pic looks like a green bowtie but it's reflecting the lawn.
