    Towing with '15 LTZ

    I'm glad you started a thread on towing. It is the first spec I looked at when the car was announced. I was optimistic that that we'd see more towing emphasis on the the 15 chassis like was given to the 14 trucks. I was a bit disappointed when the specs came out, though. However, I can say...

    8L90 8-speed auto trans on the way

    There's always something new and better coming. You could end up waiting forever. The 6sp was a known quantity and an absolute workhorse for me in my '09 and the 8sp is new. I'll wait a few years on the 8sp and that will be perfect time for me to upgrade.

    Yukon XL Autoleveling & weight dist hitch

    I don't see how auto-leveling has anything to do with it. All that does is add stiffness to the shocks so they don't sag, it doesn't redistribute weight. I do understand your concern about weight distribution and since I have never weighed my setup I can't advise you. I don't see any harm in...

    On the long, skipping the cargo mat

    I have come to the conclusion while searching for the right cargo mat that there's really no point on my XL based on how we use it. I'm now finding that my wife just simply fully opens the floor compartment and leaves it completely open all the time. It already has dividers and a non-slip...

    Is the trailer brake controller on the dash for Denali but on the tree for SLT? Why?

    The trailer brake controller is on the dash for both. Denali has it standard. SLT, it's an option.

    Denali Passenger Airbag

    Do you think GM will warranty the dash? The line doesn't show up in any stock pictures. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2015 Yukon XL DVD Issue

    You're not alone. This happened to me just yesterday. It occurred shortly after starting the car and while the video had already started playing in the rear. I pressed the video app and it did the same thing. I just pressed home and then video again and it was fine. There are a couple of buggy...

    Tires on the '15s

    I'm curious to know how the stock Continental tires are for you guys with '15s? The tread pattern is quite a bit more progressive compared to the Bridgestone Allenza H/L. I was expecting to have the Continentals but when mine came in it had the same Allenza H/L that was OEM on my 09. I...

    My Radio Unlock Experience

    As an owner of the GM Lockpick system in my 09 Denali XL I knew that I wanted to unlock the potential of my 15 Denali XL Intellilink system while in motion. I searched around and could not find anyone who accomplished this. I called Costaltech, who mfg. the lockpick, and they said, "maybe...

    Adaptive Cruise Control

    I was experimenting with the adaptive cruise control yesterday and it is pretty impressive. If you do a lot of highway driving then I would recommend it. I set cruise at 71MPH and did not touch the gas or brake in moderately heavy traffic for 5 miles. I exited the freeway and finally pressed...

    Can't get text messages on 2015 Denali???

    Mine now has it too for the same reason Chris does. :) In a slightly related rant about the manual specifying features that don't exist at produciton: the manual mentions the kick to lift rear tailgate option as well but it's non-existent. Must be another mid-year addition.

    Removing the HMI Module

    Hi all, I reinstalled the HMI yesterday and discovered that I damaged the jumped connectors with too thick of gauge wire. I had to repair the connector and will end up replacing it. It is CRITICAL that you do not overstress the connectors on female harness that you jump. I soldered a stranded...
