    Keep it or sell? Help me diagnose a couple issues please

    My AFM has been disabled since we bought it at 32k, via a Black Bear Tune....... It's never towed anything, never been beat on, just my wife hauling kids. With the tune in, the idle stumble is apparent. It also has a surge when accelerating. I took the tune out and re Trade in not even...

    Keep it or sell? Help me diagnose a couple issues please

    Sorry, I forgot that I did replace the MAF but have not done the throttle body. Trans fluid and filter was changed at 60k but was just dropped and refilled, not flushed.

    Keep it or sell? Help me diagnose a couple issues please

    2014 Escalade ESV...........70k miles. Bought it with 30k, still have 3 months worth of GMEPP warranty that I can extend for another couple years for $2-3k. Car is immaculate inside and out, despite being a Midwest vehicle it's always been undercoated and has no visible rust and very little...

    Least problems? 18+ with 5.3 or 6.2?

    I need to replace our 2014 Escalade and I'm trying to pick the most reliable replacement. This 6L80 seems to be shifting strange now, with only 70k miles, which I'm surprised because I was under the impression that it was generally pretty reliable. I know the 15/16/17 were more...

    Adding factory brake controller to Escalade

    Good info, thank you all............I'm only planning on towing our enclosed snowmobile trailer with it, as we have a 3/4 Ram to tow our camper, but it would be nice to have the brakes work. I guess I'll order up a Prodigy:) Thanks!

    Looking at buying used 2014 Denali

    I ended up getting a 3 year, 60k additional mileage GMEPP warranty for $2650 :) That’ll take us to 91k miles.

    Adding factory brake controller to Escalade

    Just picked up a 2014 Escalade ESV and it doesn’t have an integrated brake controller. Is there a way to add a factory brake controller? Really don’t want an aftermarket prodigy hanging off the knee kick panel. Thanks!

    Pricing a 2007 3/4

    Sold my 2013 Burb LT 3/4 4WD this summer. 91k Miles, in VG condition, all options and tons of maintenance had been done, had someone offer me $32k cash for it and (against my wife’s wishes) I took it. Simply couldn’t turn down that kind of coin for it, I think KBB was only $27-28. They are...

    Looking at buying used 2014 Denali

    I just bought (and am awaiting delivery tomorrow) a 14 Escalade ESV with the 6.2 and only 31k miles. Pretty sure you’d also be eligible to purchase the GMEPP warranty, which is the official Gm extended warranty. I’m seeing quotes in the $3500 range to get me an additional 3 yr/60k miles...

    Buying Used Denali XL?, What pitfalls to avoid?

    We bought an immaculate 2014 Escalade ESV Luxury to solve our dilemma. Low 30k miles, very clean inside and out. 6.2 L94, proven chassis, remaining factory warranty and GMEPP on the way, etc. Dealer is delivering it Monday, can’t wait :)

    L94 6.2 Reliability in 2013-2014 Yukon Denali

    Looking for a newer ‘Burb for my wife, $40k tops. She originally wanted a 15+ but with all the horror stories of buffeting, vibrations, torque converter failures, a/c issues and more, we’re thinking of finding a low mileage ‘13-14 Yukon Denali XL with the L94 6.2 and hopefully mitigating...

    Using Rebate on 2018 Yukon-Finance Question for Forum

    My guess is you won’t have a penalty if you re-fi in a week, the dealer just gets a kickback if you maintain the loan 90 days.....

    Buying Used Denali XL?, What pitfalls to avoid?

    Any benefit to getting an early 2015 build (pre Oct 2014) to get the less troublesome 6 speed, to hopefully dodge the bullet on the 8 speed TC issues? That would scratch that issue off the books, so I’d only have to worry about AC compressors, vibrations, and buffeting sounds? (LOL).

    Buying Used Denali XL?, What pitfalls to avoid?

    Ok. More questions. She wants something soon. I live in a town of 800 people in Northern lower Michigan. Nearest GM dealer is 50 miles away, and we normally have to travel 300+ miles to buy vehicles to get any selection and reasonable prices. I’ve bought 8-9 vehicles from out of...

    Buying Used Denali XL?, What pitfalls to avoid?

    Yes, they all have issues for sure. There’s basically nothing in the “XL” class other than the GM triplets and the Expedition MAX. Even the most lifeless of them is more exciting than the 2010 Town & Country She’s driving around for the summer LOL!!!!

    Buying Used Denali XL?, What pitfalls to avoid?

    Couple comments............ The 2nd Gen Sequoia driver's seat doesn't fit my wife very well.....she's 4-10" and the seat base is too long for her legs, it hits mid calf and gives her an awkward driving position. Also doesn't have much space behind the 3rd row. At one time we had a '15 QX80...
