    Changed my filter and fluid on 8l90 8 speed today

    Don’t forget to flush your brake system - 3yrs or 45k

    Hello all I’m anal about routine maintenance with all my cars. Just flushed the brake fluid from all 4 calipers this morning. The pedal feels more firm and I was surprised. Normally I can’t tell, so there’s proof it was a good time to do it. 51k on my 2015 Yukon. Manual states to do this...
