    First legit LED fog replacement for Tahoe Yukon (maybe)

    So far they are working fine. No ill effects from the super harsh winter we have had this year. I am still very happy with them.

    XL Denali MPG Mods?

    I get about 16.5 MPG per tankful for mixed driving. I can get 20+ on the highway if I keep it under 60. Otherwise I get about 18 at 70-75. The only thing I have done is increase the tire pressure to 45 PSI. Other than that I drive fairly agressively. The big thing I do is watch ahead and try to...

    5.7L V8 Tune Up

    Are you saying you add ATF to flush the engine out and the you dump it? Or, are you saying you actually add ATF to your engine oil and then drive it that way?

    What is this noise!?

    I listened to it a few times and I can't figure out what noise you are talking about.

    Denali spoiler full LED conversion?

    Has anyone converted a GMT900 Denali spoiler to LEDs all the way across like an Escalade spoiler? Actually, it would be like an Escalade spoiler that has had the full LED all the way across conversion done. Thanks.

    Diy catch can install

    I like the idea of using a pneumatic oil trap like that. I also very much like where people are not mounting to alternator bracket because it is going to be vibrating/moving/jerking with the engine. IMO, that is more likely to have a failure but I would be afraid that all the extra sloshing...

    Fuel Economy question

    I am getting a pretty solid 16.5 MPG combined in my '13 YXL Denali with the 6.2L. Only 1700 miles so far but soon I will switch to Mobile 1 oil and if it goes like it has in the past, I might see as much and 0.5 to 1 MPG more. I also run about 45 PSI in my tires, and that helps. What Jennifer...

    Not my Yukon!

    Oh course it is very hard to say without more details but the most common problem would be low refrigerant. You can buy a very cheap gauge for the low side at most decent auto parts stores. If the low side pressure is too low the compressor will not come on. If it comes on but then the low...

    LED exterior lights

    Two things..... 1) Gotta watch out on length. Those look a lot longer than the stock bulb and you may not be able to fit them. 2) I tried directional LEDs for my plate lights and, since the fixtures are vertical, and off to the side of the plate, the illumination was very uneven and didn't...

    sold the tahoe an bought a raptor

    Sweet. I am a lifelong GM man. And, I work for GM. But seeing that makes me sad that GM doesn't make anything like it. In fact, never really has made anything like it. Except maybe the H2, and we got reamed for that. And that was BS.

    eBay LED taillights much cheaper, any good?

    Ah, I see. They open like rear van doors. Thanks for the explanation. 2 things suprise me..... 1) I didn't think they still offered those after 07. 2) It's funny but the barns I am familiar with have doors that slide. Don't think I have ever seen doors that open like that.

    Garage lift

    Joe, the only one I find is part number 537267. That is only rated at 6,000 lb so I am not sure I would try it on one of our trucks. Do you know if they have another model hidden away?

    Black Bear Tune!!!

    I'd like to know the effect on fuel economy once you run it long enough to determine. I'd appreciate it.

    Now to figure out this missing problem

    In case you need them decoded. P0125 = Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Insufficient for Closed Loop Fuel Control P0141 = O2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 2 P0155 = O2S Heater Performance Bank 2 Sensor 1 P0300 = Engine Misfire Detected P0430 = Catalyst System Low Efficiency...

    Towing with a 12 Yukon

    What kind of trailer are you using? The ATV may be light but its the combined weight of the trailer and ATV that count. Is the trailer equipped with brakes? Also, if the has a large frontal area, for example, if it is enclosed, then the aero drag will play a big factor. If the combined...

    Thoughts on cargo tie downs, etc

    Yeah, I am still pondering. My folks have an SRX that has some real cool flush aluminum rails. You have to but them but there are some sliding cleats that you can use to secure about any cargo you want. My current thoughts are to find some sort of rail system to attach. The key is to then...

    Ethanol Free Gas

    It's a little off topic but I just picked up a trimmer that I had repaired under warranty because it was running like crap. Then repair folks were going ape about not running any ethanol blended fuel in any 2 stroke engine. They had several different flyers on the counter and signs everywhere...

    That's the problem, he does not say. I think we know enough to ignore him but it's kind of dumb to make those statements and loose so many customers. ---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ---------- Look for yourself...

    eBay LED taillights much cheaper, any good?

    I had the same question about the 2007-2011 fitment. I work won't these trucks all the time and I was almost positive that they would fit all the way to 2013 but the guy is so adamant....... Even going so far as to say in bold text that they will fit 2007-2011 Suburban/Tahoe and 2007-2010...

    eBay LED taillights much cheaper, any good?

    Thanks Serge. In looking at eBay getting ready to place an order I have come up with another question. What the heck is a barn door relative to Tahoe/Yukons? And one more thing....requesting opinions....My Denali is Red Tint Coat... I know I don't want smoked, and was just about to buy...

    eBay LED taillights much cheaper, any good?

    Got it! Thanks much. Looks like want G4 s then. One more thing I am unclear on then. I've looked through several posts but haven't seemed to find a definitive answer to if I will need to add resistors. At this point I would probably buy then from Revotec based on the recommendations. Also...
