    'Loved My 6.2 Yukon Denali But Got a Different Replacement Because of the Recall

    When we built the house 30 years ago the garage floor was "Stained" with H&C xylene and has been flawless since. It matches our roof tile. We considered a fancy floor but this is a true work shop. Actually many of those epoxy floors are VERY slippery when wet so not good in many ways. The garage...

    'Loved My 6.2 Yukon Denali But Got a Different Replacement Because of the Recall

    I used to fly rather large radio controlled turbine powered model jets and the XL Yukon was just big enough for the carry to the flying field. In the past, a Navigator or Expedition did the job. I thought I would give GMC a try but it's ending up to be a No Joy. I have since down sized to...

    'Loved My 6.2 Yukon Denali But Got a Different Replacement Because of the Recall

    I could not live with all the issues happening to this engine and ones that even passed the pico testing. A week ago I decided to jump ship. A month ago my wife got a good deal on a used RR so I thought it only fair that I got one. So a slightly used 2025 RR Cullinan now resides in our garage: ali

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    This “new” 2024 GMC Yukon XL Denali is a little over a year old. It has just over 7,000 miles now. It is part of the GMC Recall for possible engine rod bearing failures. They are now recommending changing the OEM recommended oil from a 20 grade to a 40 grade, specifically 0W-40. If the original...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    "There is no use case, no set of engine operating conditions, and no environmental condition in which an 0W20 oil protects the engine better than a 0W40 oil, not a single one. In every case the 0W40 oil is at least as good or better than a similarly formulated 0W20. The only downsides to...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    "Update: Got the recall letter for my 2021 Yukon 6.2L w/62K miles. Called the local GMC Dealership and after verifying my VIN they scheduled the PICO test this Wed. Didn't seem to be an issue other than they wanted to verify my VIN before agreeing to schedule." Does that recall letter say how...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    To those who got the letter to bring your car in now for testing - Is there a time limit on those notices? My truck has 3,000 miles on the current oil and I want to change it. It would be a waste to do so then get the second letter saying to bring it in now. I got the recall letter that tells me...

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    "( not to mention there is plenty of research showing thinner oils can reduce ring seal)" There are studies, from Shell, if I remember correctly, that thinner oils actually result in a better ring seal and more HP. ali

    BREAKING: GM is officially recalling the L87

    I did extensive motor oil viscosity research in the early 1970s. Many oils that were labelled as a 30 or 40 grade oil were actually a 20 or 30 grade oil right out of the can. They all lost viscosity quickly, probably due to the poor VI improvers of the day and severe fuel dilution in those...

    Dark Walnut Slate interior 2024 GMC Yukon

    That is my interior and I would call the seat color "off white". Ivory is a good word. I love it but it is a very light color. Ali

    6 weeks from when the dealer put in the order of my custom Yukon Denali until it landed at the dealership for me to pick up. ali
