    RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

    At any rate I knew opening up the oil pan was going to suck. I didn’t even know if I could do it on my own. mechanic, and buddy Chris both told me I could handle it. It would suck and it was going to test me and be difficult but just keep at it. So I gathered all the necessary parts, in addition...

    RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

    Cue the low oil pressure and the new sensor not solving the issue. So now I know “either the pickup tube o ring failed, the oil pump failed…. OR….. hoping not the case, internal engine damage occurred and low oil pressure is a sign I grenaded the engine”….. so chatted with Chris quite a bit, the...

    RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

    So June of 2022, at approx. 165k, after the shop I spent years detailing cars for every week closed up a few months prior, I took the Nali into another shop across town, who is done some work for over the years for its owner. Well said owner was retiring and his son and his wife were running the...

    RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

    been a bit. A few updates. So end of March I took a quick off the mountain dance night in cathedral city to meet up with my buddy Chris and his partner Amy. Long time dance friends and he and I geek out over Chevy stuff. He picked up a stupidly clean 2002 LT TAHOE a couple years ago off the old...

    Yukon XL 2025 Vs Grand Wagoneer 2025?

    One of my long time detail clients picked up a new 2022 wagoneer and I absolutely HATE the window trim on it. It takes decades i feel like to get all the moisture blown out of the window trim. Especially the rear hatch window seal. I don’t know how it traps so much water in that seal, and they...

    Replacement side mirror advice

    I had a client buy an after market DL3 mirror for her 2005 Tahoe LT a couple years back and in 6 months it fell apart and the LED turn arrow stopped working. I sourced her a good shaped used from one of my local yards and still works exactly as it should a couple years later. Dont waste your...

    The Adventures of Sylvester, the 2018 Suburban 3500 HD and our 2017 Airstream 27FB

    Really like the wheel and tire setup! Wheels are good looking for sure! Put a ceramic coating on them and they’ll be super simple to keep clean.

    Such a good looking and sounding burb! Too bad the kid swiped the mailbox but that’s how they learn. Been there done that myself a handful of times over the years of being a young teenager lol. Hopefully she learns to tell you next time but hopefully she’s remorseful and learned the lesson.

    '02 Loose Shifter

    Weird. I’ve had my shifter apart multiple times cuz I first went with a 2010 Escalade shift handle then a 2020 Escalade shifter with no chrome on the end and tan leather. The first time I pulled the factory bolt I used a heat gun to loosen up the factory loctite on the bolt. Never used loctite...

    Metallic Rattle While Accelerating - Dealer Can't Reproduce (video)

    As walleyemike said it’s time to take to another dealer and have it checked out by a different shop manager or tech. Sounds like the current shop manager isn’t skilled in diagnostics beyond what his service manual suggests, or he’s not motivated to go beyond the service manual for whatever...

    Fosscore's 2013 Suburban LTZ Build Thread

    Yeah but I bet your rigs still see a lot less snow than my poor long body does. Admittedly though mine is tucked into the garage tonight…… :Big Laugh: And I’m not. And I agree the long body needs a faithful miles served upgrade! lol

    fuel mileage

    I pull a 4300lb sea ray V hull behind my 2006 XL Denali with a 6.0 and I see about the same mileage. But dang you guys hit some serious speed when towing lol. I keep it 65 or below……. But then again the southern California freeways are kinda a nightmare when towing lol.

    Afm application on 2009 Denali?

    To be a bit more specific, the 2007/2008 L92 6.2L engine had the hardware installed in the engine for AFM but did not have the software in ECM programmed to enable it. 2009 the L9H 6.2L had no AFM hardware components in the engine or the software in the ECM programming to run it, so it was...

    Escalade Crossbars

    Nope. Completely different cross rails. The Tahoe/yukon cross rails are black plastic, they are a tad bit larger, and they mount to the top of the side rail and slide back and forth along the cross rails along the top channel that they sit in. The Escalade cross rails are a bit narrower, and...

    Weathertech Mats

    I have several clients with ** liners in their vehicles and from a detailing perspective I love them. The material seems less porous than the previous WT lines and seem to clean up a lot easier. Also as far as I have seen with the clients that have them so far no curling has come about. Time...
