    Catch can green light for me, edited

    Who is the provider for your power train warranty? Sounds like you were treated right.

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Oooooh... I like the sound of that :) And it looks like you dropped the rear a tad? It doesnt seem to have that 'stinkbug' stance that mine does.

    Black Bear Performance EFLive AutoCal Tuning System E38 6sp. Purchased for 2011 Chevy Tahoe PPV and used once.

    You can store multiple tunes, but each additional vehicle must be licensed. According to the BlackBear website, each additional vehicle tune is $400 which includes the tune service and software license. So if you buy this unit from Denslow, it will effectively cost you $575 to tune your vehicle.

    Has a dealer gone out of the way for you?

    Not sure why anyone would want the 24 inch option. I test drove several Tahoes, and every one of them with the 22's was a notably harsher ride than the 20's or smaller. Those 24's must be brutal.

    Replacement Battery

    Yup, $179 plus fees ($212 out the door) for the Interstate AGM with 3 year prorated warranty.

    Service stability c0455

    There's the first potential issue. Dorman has gone seriously downhill. I dont trust anything with their name on it.

    How to Achieve Most Comfortable Ride?

    Before I bought my '17 Tahoe, I tested numerous versions with the 18's, 20's and 22's. To me, the difference was night and day. The smaller the rim size (and taller sidewall) the better the ride. I couldnt handle the 22" rims on California highways - the ride was notably harsher.

    Magnetic Oil Drain Plug

    Sorry. If it says Dorman on it I wont touch it. I've had too many failures from this company, and yes, even on simple items.

    Thinking of selling my new 6.2L Denali...

    So would I. I dont care how magical the oil "claims" to be...I wouldnt run any oil that long unless the Blackstone test confirmed that it was ok. ESPECIALLY with these AFM engines....

    Wireless cell phone charger for Tahoe.

    The part number has been superseded a few times. The new part number for the wireless charging module is 13547617.

    Wireless cell phone charger for Tahoe.

    Thanks for that info. Had no idea there was a better unit available. Another project to add to the list :)

    Replacement Battery

    Well, they used to be top of the line. Not so sure anymore. The last couple of Diehards I had experienced notably shorter life than say the Diehards of decades ago.

    Driver Seat Swap

    Nope. They have a completely different bolt pattern on the floor mount.

    Wireless cell phone charger for Tahoe.

    I have to agree. I have the '17 Premier and the factory wireless charger is weak at best. The phone has to be placed perfectly and it takes forever to charge.

    2011 Tahoe/Best dash cam for Chevy Tahoe

    I picked up the Rove 2 camera system. Very happy with the camera and it has more bells and whistles than I will ever need. After using it for a few months, I grew tired of the power cable dangling from the windshield, so I picked up an adapter which let me take off power from the rearview mirror...

    Auto start heated seat

    I thought mine weren't working either until recently. Every time I tried them, I could not notice any difference. But recently it was a bit colder out (<50 degrees) and when I remote started, I made sure to give it a good 7-8 minutes of running before I climbed in. Sure enough, all 4 seats were...

    Heated seats not turning on when using remote start in the cold

    Tried it again tonight (much colder outside) and this time I did notice them being on. I let the truck run for a good 7-8 minutes first, and then it was noticeable on all 4 seats. I'm guessing that it needs to be cold enough outside for the heated seats to activate and they need more than a few...

    Missing an info screen on the dash

    Thanks... I'll take another look.

    Missing an info screen on the dash

    2017 Tahoe Premier, 45000 miles, new to me. I seem to be missing one of the screens on my driver information center. I have seen several videos where the user is cycling through the different info screens and there is one that shows the estimated fuel range remaining. This particular screen is...

    Heated seats not turning on when using remote start in the cold

    Mine is exhibiting the same behavior. 2017 Premier, I have the heated seats selected to "on" in the remote start menu, but nothing happens when I remote start the vehicle. Wish I could figure out what the issue is.

    Ok for the vehicle to idle for 3-5 hours?

    Dave (of Dave's Auto Center in Utah) is a diesel specialist. He says never let these newer diesels idle any more than necessary and shows evidence why. He says the quickest way to damage these diesels in consumer vehicles is lack of oil changes and excessive idling. You cant compare an...

    Help with Rims (No more 24s)

    Before buying my Tahoe, I test drove several variations with 20's and 22's. In every case, the 20's had a notably better ride. It was a no-brainer going with the 20" wheels.

    RockAuto selling fake GM Parts?

    I'll purchase smaller items from RA like belts, switches, if necessary. But I purchased a condenser from them that was a big ticket item, which I was not able to install for about 4-5 weeks because of work. When I finally pulled it out of the box, one of the line fittings was welded so crooked...

    2022 Tahoe - Dash Cam Powered by Rearview Mirror?

    Nice harness....ridiculous price. There are others on the market for 1/4th of the price.

    Drive with lift glass open?

    It can be done, but the window needs to be tied down (not left in the full open position) and cushioned against your load for shock. It needs to be able to move slightly to avoid banging up or down as your vehicle experiences bumps going down the roadway. If you tie it down solid without some...
