    2012 shifter won’t move into Manual position

    I wonder if the cables stretch and get out of adjustment? Although in the OP's case, it sounds like he had two new cables.... Here are adjustment instructions...

    Running lean

    So you're saying the O2's actually foul out? Are the tips blackened? I hear you need a wideband o2 to really tune your fueling/vve map.. Possible it's too rich when cruising under low boost? idk..

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Discovered something while changing mirror glass... I haven't noticed any wasps, so I think it's old. Got 2 mirrors for $25 from ebay, so far so good. No more brown mirror! https://www.ebay.com/itm/173429284781 I could not remove either old mirror without cracking them though.. Noticed only...

    Running lean

    Is the O2 behavior only at idle? What are fuel trims now? Is it running worse after awhile, or just throwing codes? Might disconnect battery to clear fuel trims, and see if O2's start behaving normally...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Discovered my new Genuine GM blower motor frequently makes a rythmic whining noise at 1/2-3/4 fan speeds. Installed about a month ago, but purchased many months ago from Rockauto...

    HP Tuners Modifications for GM Trucks.

    Make sure you have the latest beta software.. One person submitted a suport ticket and got the 'cruise control shift override' option added for their '18 silverado. https://forum.hptuners.com/showthread.php?119231-2018-silverado-5-3-6l80e-shift-points-while-using-cruise-control If you can't...

    replacement dash ?

    Would be cool.. Center console might not line up.. Would need the passenger airbag and HVAC ducting too. Not dual zone, so might need some custom ducting.

    Rock Auto

    RA packaging is on the loose side... Our UPS sometimes drops packages, but overall all the carriers have been decent here.. Only thing broken so far, was a plastic loop on the side of a Denso radiator.. And that was in Denso packaging.. Could have happened anywhere, and the the loop served no...

    Issue After Brake Rotor & Pad Replacement

    My new bosch "quietcast' rotors and ceramic pads were smelling for the first few drives as well... AI says it's resin in the pads curing.

    Left Rear window not going up or down from master switch or Left Rear door switch

    Looking at the diagram @Fless linked, the rear window switch powers the window motor. My guess is it's just the rear switch.

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Nice paint! About how much does a job like that run? (If you don't mind telling) Yesterday, my liftglass popped off the hinges again because I didn't want to install harbor freight eclips that didn't fit so great. That was a mistake, when the glass popped up, the hinge scratched my roof again...

    -IF- fuel pressure checks out, maybe crank position sensor? How's your RPM signal or injector pulsewidth?

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Dash really isn't too bad, but still time consuming. Although if your dash is starting to crack, that might be a concern.... I've heard the HVAC case needs to be drilled apart, then screwed back together when done.. Might cost you ~8hrs? (Probably take me longer just because I'm special..)...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I thought the washer fix was for the hinge mount to fix the mirror angle? I dunno, it just didn't fit into place right, and the foam looked cheap poking out around the mirror unevenly, plus the huge gap. I would rather try another set if I thought they would fit right... Would even consider the...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Tested KOspeed tow mirrors. I bought them from ebay, but they shipped from amazon. Only $75 shipped. Looked promising, has metal base. Was packaged well and advertised for '03-'06. But the fit... Not something I can live with, so I will be returning them.

    Scan tool needed for suspension

    My vote is foxwell, despite not knowing anything about them. The tech2 is old and crude, and will be useless for most any other vehicle..

    GM Front Axle Nut?

    Maybe the loose axle end in there cranking around destroys the hub? But it sounds like you can use 4X4 hubs in a 2WD for GenIII and later.. (So axle nut torque is not holding the bearing together) "When replacing an older Gen II design 4x2 hub with a new 4x2/4x4 common Gen III hub, it is...

    replacement dash ?

    Some have replaced with factory dashboards. There is a fiberglass dash, which might save you around $500 compared to a factory one, but needs paint and fitting. Once you spend all that money for a new dash, you'll block it from your memory and forget all about it..

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yea, but where the contact is should be wiped clear? I know we don't want conductive grease spread over the contacts? I was going to order that deoxit everyone recommends, but didn't feel like waiting for it and spending $20 for this.. (Though I would like to have it on hand someday..) Just...

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Cleaned my dimmer switch contacts with rubbing alchohol and eraser. Slathered a little dielectric grease on them. (Hopefully it doesn't leak in the heat..) Fingers crossed it will work tonight. I think the white residue was dielectric grease as well. When I took apart my used ebay switch, it...

    GM Front Axle Nut?

    For my '05 2500 suburban, charm.li shows: 177 ft.lbs. for the "hub nut" 184 ft.lbs. for the "axle nut" The front axle nut on my 2500 suburban, someone replaced a wheel bearing and overtightened it.. I'm afraid to go past 3' on the breaker because I did break a 1/2" breaker once..(the bit cracked)

    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Found out my Motive pressure bleeder no longer works. Won't pressurize, pressure bypasses at the pump handle. I used it one time! Will have to contact the company and see what they can do for me. I thought I was finally making progress, but today the "battery not charging" message popped up a...

    Replaced my front rotors and pads with bosch parts. Old pads were thin and had some cracks. I was planning to do the wheel bearings while I was there, but I could not get one axle nut off. Seems one wheel bearing was replaced, and they must have impacted the axle nut real good. Breaker bar...
