    G5 tails question

    I did have a 2008 Tahoe with G4 tails so I know a bit about them. But I was wondering if these G5's will work with Hybrid models? We are trying to find a Yukon Denali Hybrid and these tails would look great on it. Huge difference between the G4's and G5's! Also, the G4's had a minor problem...

    Yukon Denali Hybrid

    Looking into getting one of these, but I noticed they don't have any exterior differences between standard Denalis, whereas the Tahoe/Yukon Hybrids have new fascias and rear appliques, etc to help reduce the drag coefficient. Do they realistically still get the same MPG ratings as the other...

    Good News for 2010 Owners

    OnStar just added support for your vehicle to the OnStar MyLink iPhone app - which remote starts your truck from anywhere (if you have remote start) as well as show you fuel levels, etc. Will be doing this for our '10 Escalade today. :D

    Service Battery Charging System

    This error came up on my dash a week or two ago. Didn't really bother me because it went away after driving for a bit. But then, on the way home from school, everything started shutting down one by one, like the radio and HVAC controls...lights were all dim, wipers moved slowly. So I pulled over...

    Heated seats not working

    My friend's mom has a 2007 Escalade and the driver's heated seat is not working - not sure about the cooled though. We are taking both of our Escalades to my dad's shop to detail them and she wants to remove the seats to help clean the carpeting, so we might be able to do something with the seat...

    Debadge?

    Does my truck look good without badging? Or should I keep the lettering? I won't remove my moldings until I get some black rims and give in to murdering it.

    OnStar unveiled new equipment.

    Looks like OnStar will be releasing a standalone rearview mirror to offer service to non-GM vehicles and older GM's without OnStar functionality. From what it looks like in the picture, this mirror may even have Bluetooth functionality? If so, those of us who have pre-2009 may have a...

    Seat swap

    I've got a fairly good chance at trading my all-black seats for the black and brown two-tone Z71 seats. Same features and configuration (heated/electric quads plus 3rd row), just different looks. The guy told me to check back with him next week, so I won't know if it can be done until then. What...

    Facebook updates.

    Kind of dumb, but if you go to OnStar's Facebook fanpage and "like" them, you can link Facebook to any vehicle with Onstar, allowing you to update your status or hear the news feed through the vehicle. Anyone else have it set up?

    What do you guys think?

    Do these rims look good or bad on my Tahoe?

    Someone broke into the Escalade...

    Well not really broke in, moreover just opened the door. We live in what seems to be a very safe neighborhood so my mom never bothers locking her car (though I always do). Went out this morning to get her iPod nano out of the center console to update it with a few new songs and it was gone...

    If you have a 2011 Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade...

    Looks like you can get this iPhone/Android app to start your car or view your truck info. Download it free from the app store. Wish it would work for ours. :( http://media.gm.com/content/media/us/en/news/news_detail.brand_gm.html/content/Pages/news/us/en/2010/July/0721_onstar_gm

    Escalade Platinum Fascia Installed!

    Here is our Escalade with the Platinum edition bumper/grills! Plus new LED's in the headlamps, a cool enough mod and saves us $2000 or more on those LED headlights. ;)

    LED Puddle lamps

    I replaced my mirrors with the new 2009+ models that have the blind side alert feature, but I forgot to take my old LED bulbs out and put them in my new mirrors. I need to know what 194 LED bulbs you guys are using for your puddle lamps, because I know from experience that some won't fit and I...

    Alternative to HID's.

    What bulbs do you guys recommend? Especially for fogs, I am not liking them at all because mine do not work right and they melt the housing. I want a clear, pure white. I have tried Silverstars but they are still yellow. Is there a whiter halogen bulb out there? Need to know for H10 size...

    iPad in center console?

    What do you guys think - let's say I take out my Denali woodgrain center cupholder section and fit an Apple iPad in there? I could buy one of those PXAMG devices and have it constantly hooked up, and then I'd have a media center for my Tahoe right there. It would be easy to flip through songs...

    Stupid problems, again.

    Picked up my truck from the dealer today and had this done: Replaced passenger side temperature actuator because the last one failed, making the passenger side vents blow extremely hot air. Replaced driver door lock actuator, which failed to unlock automatically. Turned rotors because of the...

    Why I love my HID's.

    Just messing around, I took my little brother's HHR and my Tahoe and compared the lights. Mine are from DDM by the way. Needless to say he definitely agreed to get HID's. :D

    2007 z71?

    I have been kinda playing around seeing what all I could get if I ever wanted to trade, just out of curiousity. Never have been serious about getting rid of my Tahoe. But, there DOES happen to be a 2007 Tahoe Z71 in my area with the interior I like...and it has all the same options and actually...

    Passenger side blowing hot air.

    My older brother borrowed my Tahoe for a trip to the lake and noticed the passenger side air vents only blow extremely hot air. The driver side is just fine and cold but no matter what I do to adjust the AC, the passenger side remains hot. My guess is it is the actuator located behind the...

    Fuel gauge going to empty.

    My fuel gauge has been acting funny. No matter how much gas I have left in the tank, the needle will randomly shoot all the way to empty and the DIC screen will show "--- MILES" instead of say "247 MILES"...then about a minute later it will go back to the correct reading. I've read that it...

    Re-adding heated windshield fluid parts

    If I have to get my windshield heater removed, what all parts do I need to get it to work again? On GMPartsDirect I see the heater, would that be all I need? Where is the fuse they remove? Thanks, hopefully I can find a way to get it back should it be removed at the dealer.

    Weird foglight problem...

    I have noticed that my passenger-side fog light only comes on in Accessory mode. When the engine turns over, the light shuts off and only the driver side works. This is a DDM 35-watt bulb. Hopefully we installed these right, we had to snip the factory harness and connected the wires there. I...

    Blind Side Alert notice.

    For those of you who have wanted to switch their mirror glasses to the glass with the new arrow and Blind Side Alert feature, please note that you cannot do this unless you buy a new mirror assembly. The mirror housings for 2007 and 2008 models will not support this, I have already tried. But if...

    Black and red...

    I'm out here in California on vacation...saw Ryan Sheckler today and his Range Rover was SICK. Everywhere that wasn't black, he had it painted Ferrari red. So that got me thinking...what do guys think of me painting my truck that red color everywhere I have chrome? Personally I think I'd...
