    OnStar in the Middle East

    So….OnStar….finally for the first time in the Middle East. What can I say, I haven’t had to use any of the emergency services as yet thankfully and hopefully never do…so let’s address the “Connected Drive” services or whatever it is OnStar calls it. Essentially what we have here that is...

    2021 Denali….any recovery points??

    So…the off roading season starts (rather already started) here in the UAE…planning to hit the dunes soon. Also for those wondering, 17” rims fit just fine. Waiting for mine to arrive in a couple of weeks. So…my concern is that typically SUV/trucks have recovery tow hooks or recovery points up...

    Apple CarPlay ringer too loud!!

    So…I’ve been having this issue where my 1 yr old falls asleep in his car seat and I wanna keep things quiet in the car, however whenever a phone call comes through, it is just super loud and the poor guy wakes up all startled. Is there anyway that only call notification would appear on the...

    2021 Escalade vs 2021 Yukon Denali. Warning!! Long read…

    I apologize for the long story but trust me I couldn’t help but reach out to you all. So I’ve owned a 2021 Yukon Denali since mid February 2021 and have loved almost every aspect of it as yet….except the power to be honest. It has a 6.2L V8 and having owned several, only Denalis, be it Yukons...

    So what if I trim my lug studs?!?

    So…long story short, I ordered 1.25” wheel spacers for my ‘21 Yukon Denali after watching a video on YouTube for a 1.5” spacer that was installed on a ‘21 Sierra. The person in the video did it for the sake of stance and I felt the Yukon could use a bit of the stance too…however not as much as...

    Cargo tie down point??

    Is it just me or do the new trucks not have enough cargo tie down points? Come on GM…at least 4 tie down hooks in the 4 corners of the boot!! Don’t know what kind of new carpets they’ve used, our stroller keeps sliding from side to side and I can’t even use velcro based cargo management since...

    Powering cigarette lighter when engine’s off

    So…previously I’ve owned a 2016 Sierra Denali in which I did this thing where I remember after having read in the forums a way where relocating a fuse somewhere on the driver side fuse panel, the cigarette lighter in the centre console would always be powered even when the vehicle is switched...

    RSE double tap won’t work!!

    So while life was all peaches and cream and everything was working fine, suddenly today my right side rear seat entertainment system stopped waking up on double tapping/knocking it. I can still switch it on from the front infotainment system and then everything functions just fine. But dare I...

    Playing videos on the front centre screen

    I know everyone’s probably going to grill me on how “You shouldn’t watch videos while driving” and so on and so forth, but this is just a general inquiry. My 2015 Yukon Denali, 2016 Sierra Denali and my father’s 2018 Escalade all played videos on the front infotainment system via USB when in...

    Remote start engine runtime on ‘21s

    So I’ve owned some GM vehicle or the other since 2006. 2009 was a first when I was introduced to remote engine start using your key fob on my 2009 Camaro. Ever since, I’ve always used it in all my GM cars/SUV/trucks. I have always noticed that the standard engine run time is 10 minutes. Fast...

    iPhone 12/12 Pro wireless charging

    Is it just me or are others having trouble charging their phones wirelessly? And I’m not only referring to iPhone 12/12 pro....I’m talking about all smaller phones that have to sit perfectly aligned with the inclined charging pad to charge. Once the car moves, the phone slides back and boom...no...

    AT4 vs Denali

    With regards to off-road ability, what really is the difference between AT4 and Denali? I know typically it is the bumpers with more ground clearance and the 20” wheels on the AT4....but like the Sierra AT4, which physically has a 2” lift on it compared to the Sierra Denali, and apparently a...

    Small wheels big tires!!

    Hey guys...I know it may be too soon to ask but any idea if I can run 35” tires on 18” rims on a ‘21 Yukon Denali? Here in the UAE we have hardly 4 months of winter and we try to make most of it by doing out-doorsy stuff like dune driving and so on. Looking to do a winter set up and keep the...

    Driver seat loose??

    So this is with regards to the driver seat in my ‘21 Yukon Denali. Now I am unfortunately a hefty 300lb guy. For some odd reason only during breaking or taking turns I feel like my driver’s seat nudges/clicks/shimmies forward or to the side my weight shifts during turns. The truck barely has 500...

    ‘21 Yukon/Tahoe dome lights

    Hi guys....got myself a 21 Denali. Generally an awesome truck but obviously has to come with its own little niggles. Unlike the old GM trucks, there isn’t a single switch that you can toggle between “on” (which would switch on all dome lights in the vehicle), “off” (again for all dome lights) or...

    2nd row seat headrest adjustability

    Hi guys....need a bit of help with my 2021 Yukon Denali. My second row seat headrests won’t go up. The swing down at a push of the button on the side of the headrest, but like conventional headrests, I’m not able to adjust the height of the headrest. Any idea how that can be achieved?

    Retrofitting '15.5 Escalade mirrors

    Hey guys....newbie here! Just got a 2015.5 Yukon Denali a couple of months ago and am finding the mirrors terribly small for a vehicle this large. When on a long enough drive, I tend to slouch and then straighten up every time my back starts feeling uncomfortable and whenever I do that I...
