    Synthetic diesel oil

    Years ago, I called Mobil 1 and asked them why they stopped printing the 24,000 mile oil change? They said basically we got our hands slapped by the car industries. Being that said, I changed my oil in my 318 Dodge Ram 18k - 25k, sold it with 327k on it.

    Fuel grade

    If you want to get into it, 100% pure gasoline has a higher BTU rating than the other grades, hence, better fuel economy.

    Fuel grade

    I’m no engineer that did any of the testing for GMC. But it sounds like spitting hairs on the wording of recommended or requirement use of 91 octane. I know someone who uses 87 octane in his Harley and it stinks to high heaven, I figure that it can’t be good for the catalytic converter, let...

    Glad to hear that you’re still pliable. I’m or should I say my back is north of 90. Oh well, glad to know what I know to help the technicians pin point problems.

    How much weight does a floor jack need to support a 1999 Tahoe?

    It’s nice to have the tools and equipment; But, for myself these days, I have to take it to the dealership to have them do any work.

    Dreaded Cylinder 4 misfire

    Good luck with your ordeal, at least they found the problem. My guess is that the warranty will cover a good portion of it; I had some warranty issues and I had to pay $100, it was worth it for the amount of stuff that they did.

    23 Denali/Super Cruise Defective

    I can see your disappointment in the matter. I have a tachometer that is on the fritz, a new one is on back order and it’s been a month. The service manager said that it is partly due to Covid-19 and the chip shortage. I told him that I okay with it as long as it gets fixed. In the meantime...

    2023 Yukon Denali 6.2L, Dead at 3600 miles

    I’m surprised that the dealership doesn’t send your engine out to be rebuilt, instead of waiting for a replacement to come in from the factory.

    Hello from MI

    I do have a question about tires, I have 275/55R/20. My question is, are they supposed to be a load range type tire?

    Hello from MI

    Oh for sure on finding a good dealership; I found out that she bought the dealership from a previous owner, who ran it down. She has worked really hard and treating her employees super well, and extending that out to the customers as well. I found out that the dealership has a 5 star rating on...

    What to Buy? Tahoe vs Yukon Denali

    I had a 03 Chevy Avalanche with the 5.3L, ran good, got about 15-17 mpg. Now I have a 16 GMC Yukon Denali with the 6.2L 4x4 8 speed automatic transmission, man, it will go if you want it to, I like it much better than the 5.3L. The mileage is about the same. Good luck with your decision.

    Power tilt steering

    Sounds like the electric motor quit on you. With the amount of electrical stuff, I would take it to the dealership to get it fixed.

    Hello from MI

    The Miss thinks ( joking) a drug dealer’s vehicle, the GPS system was never cleared, so it was dated back to 2016 with addresses to Key West all the way into Ontario, coffee shops and other locations. I had to learn how to clear that from the internet.

    Help with GM kicker sub

    I am not so sure about cutting crankshaft position sensor wire. For the limited knowledge I have, that actually works as a distributor for the engine to fire. I believe that is very bad advice.

    Hello from MI

    Thank you. I just googled up Yukon SUV’s and you folks came up, so I figured why not just sign up and start learning about my truck and others as well.

    Hello from MI

    Oh for sure on finding a good if not a great dealership. Part of the deal was replacing two of the miss matched tires (they got me four new tires) two new key fobs, two third row head rests ( they were missing), fix the right side power running board, the power pad in the center console and a...

    Help with GM kicker sub

    I would tend to think that the speaker is fine, just something with the program in the sound system is acting up. Bad grounds are good start. I would recommend a different dealership or buying a service manual and reading through it, a lot of information on the troubleshooting process in there.
