    Tool to disable tpms all together

    I took the escalade to a few shops a few years ago, had new sensors put in, had them try and pair etc etc. Both shops said well sometimes they just don't pair properly and it's something with your vehicle. Long story short, what tool can I buy to delete the tpms message on the cluster.

    Wife's escalade taking a while for heat.

    Guage will show 210 on the temp Guage but no heat until a few minutes after... seems it's slowly gotten worse. Used to heat up quick. Any idea?

    I know someone posted a website that allows you to check a bunch of salvage yards across the country for parts... I was curious if someone could post the site here. Thanks!

    Transmission shifting issue (second opinion)

    Hey everyone, I recently purchased a suburban knowing it was having some transmission based issues. Basically it has a firm/harsh 1-2 shift and the 2-3 shift flares a couple hundred rpm before it catches and holds. It does this consistently and ALWAYS holds the gears after the shifts complete...

    97 suburban with bad transmission...

    For under $1000 would this be worth picking up? Clean body, clean title, rebuilt engine, red leather interior. Owner said I can drive it home it just has issues shifting into 2nd or 3rd sometimes. Curious what a transmission would set me back. I'm looking for a new project.

    Thinking of purchasing an older ESV.

She has a check engine light that comes on and off for some time now but I believe it's an 02 sensor last time I scanned it...
