    ELM327 OBD Bluetooth Diagnostic Module That Can Scan Other Modules Such As ABS, BCM, TCM?

    I recently purchased a tablet based bi-directional scan tool called the X-tool D7. They also make a bi-directional bluetooth dongal called the A30D & A30M. The software is a free download with I think lifetime free updates for the Bluetooth dongals. The only difference from my scan tool is I...

    2016 Yukon SLT Rear Inside Door Handle

    Yes it's off. Drivers side rear door works. The door latch was closed and wouldn't allow the door to close. I tried both the inside handle and outside handle to get it to retract and only the outside handle worked. I tried setting the child safety lock feature to on then off but no luck. There...

    2016 Yukon SLT Rear Inside Door Handle

    My rear inside door handle will no longer open the door but the outside handle works. I assume there is a cable that may have broken off or became unattached. How hard is it to get in there and to reattach or replace cable?

    Kirkland Oil On Sale

    Yeah Warren manufactures several name brands at their facilities. There may be different additives used with the different brands they manufacture. I saw a video of their plant and how they clean the equipment between runs so their is definitely different formulations per brand.

    Which one do i want?

    I agree about the v6 turbo charges engines in the expeditions. Ford made a big mistake in my book. I owned 2 expeditions. The last one I kept for 10 yrs. When I was shopping for a replacement the v6 totally turned me off. I ended up with 2013 Nissan Armada which I didn't really like but got a...

    Would this be a good battery?

    I replaced my factory AC Delco battery on my 2016 Yukon with a Walmart Everstart AGM battery 3 yrs ago and so far no issues. Just make sure to fully charge the battery before you install it due to time spent on the shelf..

    Tech 2 or Range AFM Disabler?

    I think I will go with a tune. My 07 chrysler 300c just dropped a valve seat and tore up a couple pistons at 79k miles. I want to prevent anything similar happening to the Yukon.

    Tech 2 or Range AFM Disabler?

    I have a 2016 Yukon SLT with 28k miles that I got brand new. I've noticed the AFM activating during city driving/short trips as well as highway driving. Should I get a Range device to disable AFM or get a good Tech 2 scanner/programmer. I do DIY maintenance and I'm thinking the Tech 2 would be...

    2022 Tahoe purchase

    I suspect when/if GM decides to do away with the V8's like Ford and Toyota that's when all if the brands will officially be crap in the large SUV segment. I was a Ford Expedition guy until they dud away with the v8 option. No way a turbo charged v6 will last and low and behold I was right. I...

    New tahoe issue

    In Maryland you have 3 days or 300 miles to return a new vehicle. I would return it if you can. Call your motor vehicle administration to find out if you can.

    Laura GMC

    I got my 2016 Yukon SLT from Laura GMC and had it shipped. No muss no fuss smooth buying experience even though I was an out if state buyer. Are they still highly rated? Been thinking about a 2022 or 23 XL upgrade. My 2016 shorty just doesn't have enough rear storage for me.

    2016 Denali versus 2016 Suburban

    I hope it has no issues but these vehicles are known primarily for vibration at highway speeds and the ear pressure/buffeting issue. Without a test drive to detect these problems you could be facing multiple trips to your local dealer. I purchased My 2016 Yukon SLT from Laura GMC in St. Louis...
