    2009 Yukon Denali worth

    It’s funny you say that because GM no longer requires the coolers to be flow tested because they said it is never an issue.

    2009 Yukon Denali worth

    Used prices have fallen back to pre-COVID levels. To most people, the fact that it isn’t have AFM doesn’t mean much, it’s an “ancient” car and has no tech they want. If it’s super clean, you may be able to get $10k-$12k but generally what everything else in your area is priced at is what it’s...

    2016 Yukon XL repairs for 100k miles

    Oil pan leaks should not happen but you should change a water pump and timing chain just because at 100k?

    2016 Yukon XL repairs for 100k miles

    Why would he be joking? Who better to look over a vehicle than a place that works on basically nothing but that vehicle?

    Window trim

    Most people are cheap and have them wrapped rather than replacing them. I think most of them pieces on this body style have rivets, so you’ll have to drill those out and put in new ones.

    2016 Yukon XL repairs for 100k miles

    Is everyone on another planet? All of these items are VERY common and not a surprise at all for this body style. I’m honestly surprised they didn’t find more on a 16. People around here are very anti-dealer and because of that automatically assume anything involving a dealer means you’re...

    How to stiffen suspension/stop swaying?

    The control arms are all in the same place with drop knuckles so that has nothing to do with it. The biggest issue I had with all three of them I’ve installed were the bushing brackets not lining up with the holes and had to be bent to line up. New sway bar links were a bugger to get started as...

    How to stiffen suspension/stop swaying?

    Why would the work quality be any different than if someone replaced all the same components with stock replacement parts? The factory boys leave stuff loose and unplugged all the time, too. Cheap stock replacement parts have questionable material quality, I’ve seen so many worn out again in a...

    How to stiffen suspension/stop swaying?

    The good looks are worth it. Michelins rub on the K2 tucks at stock height when the fender liners warp slightly (which is basically all of them), so it isn’t that big of a deal.

    How to stiffen suspension/stop swaying?

    A mild drop or lift won’t ruin a vehicle but you have to use quality parts. Most people are cheap and get cheap results. I’ve got a 2/4 on my 08 and 13 and they drive exactly like stock, the only way you can tell it isn’t is the Michelins rub a little at full lock.

    2017 Escalade/Denali L86 "requires" 93 octane - your experience?

    Ok, you do realize everything that’s sold has a markup, right? “Premium” fuel comes with a premium price. It doesn’t matter what the “jobber” price is unless you’re going to open your own oil rig and refinery to save yourself $0.50 a gallon. Do you give away your product or labor? No. Everything...

    2017 Escalade/Denali L86 "requires" 93 octane - your experience?

    It’s not a marketing ripoff… the higher octane has a purpose.

    How many miles are too many for you when you buy used?

    I care more about the condition than I care about the mileage. Most people seem to only look at the mileage. I've seen tons of low mileage vehicles that are in terrible shape. To answer your question, I bought my 2008 with 132k miles and it was a one owner. I bought my 2012 Yukon with 176k...

    2012-2014 Cadillac Escalade Platinum Front Seat Covers Ebony

    You are looking at a full set of front seat covers for 2012-2014 Cadillac Escalade Platinum in Ebony. These were removed from a truck with about 50k miles and are in very good condition. These are extremely difficult to find in this shape, also since the driver cushion cover has been...

    Anyone “upgraded” from the tensioner style AC compressor to the stretchy belt?

    I think I have this fixed. I did the same WOT run three times in a row and the belts did not come off. I have no idea which single part fixed it though. Since I was replacing the compressor and found the compressor to condenser hose leaking, I decided to replace “everything” since I could still...

    Problems With New Engines And How It Is Handled

    If I were buying new and had "no" budget, I'd be going German. At least those feel like a $100k vehicle when you get in them and drive them. The Cayenne and Macan would be my first picks followed by the Mercedes GLS or GLE. I love the X5 and X7 but the interiors don't some to age well, I was...

    Dash and Trim Question - Detailing

    Use Waxed Shine Leather Nourish. It is self leveling and leaves behind no shine. You need protection from the sun’s UV rays.
