    Factory head unit - Navigation DVD map disc coverage

    I was able to find a DVD map disc for the factory head unit - with a Europe map (comes from a 2008 Corvette). Today I installed the DVD and it shows my current location and I can press the screen tap an address and save it to my address book. However, I’m not able to enter any destination...

    I will. Besides the low oil pressure thing, it’s an amazing vehicle and I enjoy every single ride.

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    Just checking in. I’ve had the Yukon for a year now. Still my daily driver and nothing has changed tick/knock, oil pressure wise. I have put 8000 miles on it, since I got it. I hope to get a lot more (knock on wood). Never got the oil analysis done, prices were steep. Took it on a road trip...

    I promise when this gets figured out I will update with the solution. However I might begin to look for a used engine which could get shipped from the States. Better find some options

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    Thanks for the input, appreciate it. Yeah it seems like oil analysis is the way to go, didn’t have to time to call them today, got off from work to late. It will probably give me an answer, so far I have probably just been trying to convince myself that it was not that bad since the engine 110k...

    Took a look at the oil dipstick today. It looks like I have metal shavings on the tip of it and the oil also has small black spots. Will reach out to oil analysis company on Monday and see if they can help.

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    Thanks for looking up the specs, really appreciate it! Well I’m at 8-9 psi at 600 rpm in drive, driving around 70mph oil pressure sits at 38-40 psi - from the minimum oil specs you provided I’m within range. Yeah might as well have the sensor changed when the oil pump is going to be changed...

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    From what I have read the 08’s don’t have AFM, which I was told that usually they don’t have as much lifter trouble as the ones who have AFM. I thought it could be pressure sensor, but since it’s pretty good pressure at start up don’t think that’s the culprit. And still makes the knock/tick/tap...

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    Thank you for your input. I can’t tell if it’s knocking or not, it sure is making noise at start up but it gets less noticeable after a couple of minutes once the engine is hot. After it gets warm I don’t hear anything driving, only at idle. The shop actually talked about trying another weight...

    Thanks for sharing, it sounds like I should start saving for the high volume pump then and have that replaced

    I completely agree with you doing the repairs yourself is the way to go, then you know for sure what has been done.

    I do trust the shop, but I can always ask them what color the one they removed was and what the one they put in was, or maybe get the part number

    Yet another Yukon with engine tick and low oil pressure

    Thanks, it really sucks but it’s a car and nothing life threathing - that’s how I decided to look at it. The shop has a specialty in US cars - that’s what they work on - but there’s always a chance that they used the wrong o-ring I guess. The Yukon has travelled a bit: -early life North...
