    2017 Tahoe LT 4x4 54k miles - need cost and tune options please

    Interested in getting this tune, please advise. Last time I tuned a truck, was a 2001 Ford F250 Diesel - so let me know how I get the tune - last time was a physical "tuner" box, plugged into the ECU , so let me know. Total newbie to Black Bear - pretty sure things have changed since roughly 2006?

    First mods - 2017 5.3 , 54k miles, 4x4

    I guess my question is how much would the afm delete help the longevity of the engine. From other threads I read it helps.

    First mods - 2017 5.3 , 54k miles, 4x4

    I'm pretty cool with the stock wheels/tires , and I am in Florida so 4x4 is pretty good for anything I need. Sounds like Black Bear tune /CAI/Catback is the ticket, my mpg is 22-24 highway, but do you all think the afm delete is worth doing? My mpg hwy is kinda no biggie- maybe one trip...

    Did you change to dual exhaust? I'm a little clueless about Catback, except for the fact that it's from the catalytic converter back

    Ok, since my 5/60 warranty is dropping off in Sept, what easy suggested mods do you recommend? Black Bear tune is something I hear a lot on here, so need some info and $$$ cost, then what else would you do? Just looking to get a little more fun out of the truck, nothing extreme, is CAI worth...

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    Fixed ! $53 bucks, just a bulb, apparently, I got lucky. (But the wife is already taking the $$$ and scheduling some expensive hair tint and some extensions, so the same cost, the wives know how to work us....)

    Stupid Question - do all 2017 Tahoes have LED tailights???

    Thanks, it's all good, I probably got lucky and it was just a bulb. Appreciate all the replies and since my powertrain warranty is about to expire, going to be asking the board for any help making this Truck a bit quicker with a tune and maybe CAI? But that will obviously be a different...

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    Actually - after 2 posts, 6+ overly complex You Tube videos, and endlessly searching Google - just got home from the dealer, it WAS just a bulb, not the whole assembly total of $53 bucks including labor. Appreciate the replies, but sometimes DIY is harder and more expensive than just a 45...

    Stupid Question - do all 2017 Tahoes have LED tailights???

    My left turn signal, top 4 bulbs are dead, bottom is fine, but they look like bulbs - is the dealer lying to me and saying the "whole asembly needs to be replaced" or can I replace a bulb/fuse/whatever for less than the roughly $400? I've got the mechanical skills of a chimp, and tools to...

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    Anyone know if the 2017's came with non-LED tailight/turn signal bulbs? Watched a Youtube video, but it was a guy swapping out bulbs for LED's, so wondering if 2017 , ordered in 2016, may have had regular bulbs? Bottom half of rear turn signal is fine, top half (4 bulbs are out) so...

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    Rock Auto is $386, so my options are junkyard or dealer, dealer is $300 plus $70 install - not a whole lot of motivation to do it myself , $370 reasons total to try to get a better deal, but doubt it's going to be much less , unless there's a junkyard with a totaled Tahoe, and no tail light damages.

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    Any suggestions on what to try for a fix? Should I pull off the tailight assembly and check connections, or is this a dealership kinda repair, I don't want to waste my weekend if avoidable, lol, any replies appreciated!

    2017 Tahoe LT -left turn signal upper 4 bulbs out?

    My left rear turn signal bulbs are not working, the 4 bulbs at the top of the turn signal - anyone know what this would be? Didn't get damaged, I just find it odd that all 4 upper bulbs would go out at the same time, is this a potential fuse issue? Is this a easy or hard fix? Any and all...

    Semi-dumb question - Advantages of solid rear axle vs New 2021 Independent Rear Suspension?

    So I've got a 2017 LT, 4x4, with the 5.3 Is there ANY advantage to the solid axle? Or is the new independent rear suspension just better all around? Seems like the solid rear would have some kind of reason to exist, is it just out dated, or is it better for towing, tougher, etc?

    2015-2019 5.3 any good?

    I bought a 2017 LT 5.3 and the only issue was the ac, fixed under warranty. Previous car was a Hemi Charger 5.7, and I am still amazed at the power when I stomp the gas in my Tahoe Friend of mine was telling me to get the 6.2, and I'll agree it's a Beast, but I don't need anymore HP, other...

    New Tires - who's running 44psi ???

    New Nitto tires, and I'm in Florida, so they're the all season/rain tires, seem pretty good all around. Does anyone go to the max 44psi pressure when running on new tires? Any reason not to, if I'm doing all city and highway driving? Should I run 40psi just to be safe for heat expansion, etc...
