    Brembo Big Brake Kit

    Just to weigh in quickly. I have a 2018 Tahoe Premier that came with from Brembo factory and I love them. I think it's a worthwhile upgrade. Have never warped rotors and I drive hard. I saw a YouTube video where a guy added brembos to the front and then the rear and I messaged him and asked if...

    Passenger Rear Door lock acting up

    It turns out the Brn/Yel wire inside the harness was broken in half. Near the door jam area. A few other wires were damaged but not separated. A little soldering, shrink wrap, some electrical tape and a few zip ties later its all good again

    Lock,unlock on outside handle does not always work

    My keyfob doesnt do that when I hold Lock and unlock together for 8-10secs. MY car just unlocks the truck and then rolled down all windows. Tried it a few times. The situation is strange, yesterday the Pass rear Right door lock worked perfect, no today i cant get it to move at all. I popped the...

    Passenger Rear Door lock acting up

    So after checking fuses in all 4 fuse blocks, and replacing the whole damn lock actuator assembly it still doesn't work. The other doors are fine but the one right rear simply doesn't try. Wiring doesn't seem damaged anywhere visible. Would a BCM code show on dash or only on a good scan tool...

    Passenger Rear Door lock acting up

    I have noticed several time I can walk up to my locked 2018 Tahoe Premier and open the handle for the read passenger door and it isn't locked, door just opens and horn starts honking. I locked manually from inside and then door lock doesn't unlock with other doors. playing around it seems to...

    Whipple Supercharger w/ BTR stage 2 cam in Cali?

    Are you sure? I thought I read that the OBDII checks fora tune, and then compares legal (registered or known tunes) versus a custom one. And that you fail if its not a known tune CARB has approved. Is that a bunch of nonsense or could that be how it actually happens? Thank you Jon

    Whipple Supercharger w/ BTR stage 2 cam in Cali?

    If your kit is like mine, it switches main fuel metering to the provided 3 bar map sensor. So I would think you would need. retune to safely make any more power as I dont think the map sensor is going to know you need more fuel to go with the extra flow of a better cam at the same boost level...

    Coolant Temp Sensor lasts about 30 days

    Original radiator? Do the old ones look corroded or fried or perfectly fine? Have you checked a new one versus an old one with a meter to see what they measure? My guess (and just throwing out a possible reason, have never seen this happen on any car) is that somehow voltage is in the cooling...

    Automatic headlights - Sensor adjustment?

    That sounds right. I guess I am just used to the Mercedes GL450 I had before that would switch in a few seconds

    Whipple Supercharger w/ BTR stage 2 cam in Cali?

    Whipple kits with a CARB EO# (like I have on my Tahoe) are CA legal. But you cant change anything else (such as a cam) and retain emissions legality. Does your Whipple kit have a CARB # and Whipple provided smog legal tune? IF not, you are going to have a fun, quick truck that isn't CA compliant

    No new lights since I bought the truck in 2022

    Automatic headlights - Sensor adjustment?

    Stays in night mode and doesn't brighten up. The car thinks its night when its not. A lot of sunlight will switch the truck back to daylight if I go for a drive and get driving the perfect angle where it really shines on the sensor. Is the sensor adjustable or just bad? Thank you

    Automatic headlights - Sensor adjustment?

    I assume the headlights, the whole dash stays in night mode with super dim instrument panel and even my Car play changes to night node. Is that helpful? Jon

    Automatic headlights - Sensor adjustment?

    Hello all, When I go to drive my 2018 Premier Tahoe lately I start the truck up, then remove my Dash protector reflective windshield screen thing. The truck is in headlight night mode because the dash was dark. I understand that. But I can drive away and down the road and because its not super...

    Service 80k mile 10 speed or leave it alone?

    Does the relearn require a fancy AUTEL or similar scan tool? Thank you

    3.5" Exhaust for 2018 Tahoe 6.2L?

    Did you replace yours with something larger and get a worthwhile gain from that?

    Service 80k mile 10 speed or leave it alone?

    So I checked out my Carfax and it had the front and rear Dif services at about 50k mi, I saw the center Dif was also serviced in the past. So its just down to the Trans. Hoping someone can weigh in about if relearn is a thing for the clutches(or whatever it does) on the 10 speed. Thank you all

    3.5" Exhaust for 2018 Tahoe 6.2L?

    Whipple claims the Gen V kit makes 535hp to the wheels. I gotta think bigger exhaust piping will help at that power level.
