I am looking into the AFM delete but was wondering if there was anything else. I know the '21-'24 6.2L engines...

    Random Loss Of All Transmission Gears Including Park

    I have a 2005 Suburban Z71 with about 220K miles. I was getting off the highway on an off ramp and was coasting a little bit and when I got back on the gas the engine revved up like it was out of gear. When I got to the light I tried to switch to a gear that I could continue home in but I didn't...

    Service 4WD Message

    I recently bought a 2005 Suburban Z71 from a private seller. I test drove it when I bought it and the 4WD was working at the time. Beginning last week, I randomly have been getting the "Service 4WD" message. I was in an accident that totaled my prior 2006 Tahoe Z71 and the 4WD always worked no...

    P0446 Evap Code

    I recently got the check engine light on my 06 Tahoe Z71 and I scanned it and got the P0446 evap system code. A few months ago I replaced the evap canister and purge valve for having the same code since I was also experiencing where the pump would click off a bunch of times while trying to fill...

    Dimmable LED Gauge Lights

    A couple of my gauge lights went out recently on my 06 Tahoe Z71 that I was going to replace. I had some LED gauge lights in my old 97 Tahoe from superbrightleds but I noticed driving at night for a longer distance the brightness would hurt my eyes and make me more tired. Was wondering if there...

    Some gauge lights and HVAC lights out

    I was installing my new Alpine ilx-207 stereo in my 06 Tahoe Z71 (with Bose) with the correct PAC wiring harness yesterday and then this morning I noticed it looks like two bulbs are out on my gauge cluster (one by the volt gauge and one on the top side between RPM and MPH) along with the HVAC...

    No Power to Transmission

    The other week on my 2006 Tahoe Z71 I got in it to go to work and noticed it was way bogged down when taking off like it was in "limp" mode. I checked the transmission fluid and had to add 4oz short of 2 quarts to get the level back up in the checkerboard. Still drove the same after that. I had...

    DVD screen upgrade

    I've got a '06 Tahoe Z71 with Bose with the rear DVD. I was wondering if anyone has upgraded the screen on them before and kept the stock player. Wasn't sure what would all be involved but would be nice to have an updated screen with better resolution.

    I currently have an Alpine 7" touch screen stereo but it is not dual zone to be able to use the rear dvd separately in my 06 Z71. Was wondering what stereo's you guys are using that are reasonably priced (under $500) that sound and work good.

    Dash Lights Dimmer

    I have a 2006 Tahoe Z71 with Bose and while I'm driving I have noticed that the dash lights will all dim or brighten randomly. Same effect as when you roll the dial switch to increase or decrease how lit up they are. The dimmer wheel does not move while driving and it can happen just on a...

    I have an Alpine head unit I recently installed in my 06 Tahoe Z71 with Bose. I used the PAC wiring harness and connected as directed.

    Anyone have a good location to mount a CB? I have a Cobra 25GTL that I'd like to put in but wasn't sure where to mount it. I was thinking in maybe one of the pockets on the center console but it's a little big for that without cutting it up. Also, what's a good CB antenna? I was thinking of...

    Stock Location Subwoofer

    I thought maybe there was a stock sub in the back driver side plastic in the back but found out its just a fake plastic speaker grill (just above the spare tire jack). Has anyone ever tried to put a subwoofer there? What size would fit? 10"? Does an amp fit back in there? Thanks.
