    2017 with 42000 miles am I crazy to consider it

    holy cow! in all seriousness, for a 2005, does this not alarm you? 225,000 miles is not that many miles. i've only been driving 20 years, and i've owned 2 cars that i've driven past 300,000 miles....had they required half the repairs you list, i would not have kept them in my garage. granted...

    2017 with 42000 miles am I crazy to consider it

    Unless they are offering an extended warranty (at least 60K miles), you would be wise to avoid. Without warranty, you are exposing yourself to many well-documented (and $$$$) issues for which GM will offer zero assitance. I would be curious about the detail of your '05 with 225000 miles you...

    Totally disgusted with my 15 Denali

    2015 Suburban LTZ w/42,000 purchased new in Dec 2015 (~2.5 years in service) May 2018 -> Sharkfin antenna water intrusion failure. GM said my vehicle wasn't covered and offered zero assistance. Dealer originally quoted $600, but agreed to do it "at cost" for $400. As you're aware, this a...

    Running board issues

    i will reiterate the lube-the-hinges suggestion. 2015 Suburban LTZ with retractable boards. The p-side first started acting up (it gets cycled ~1/3 as many times as the d-side). Some lube spray stoped the issue. hopefully, i'm not just masking a bigger issue :eek:

    Do you guys have a way to delete 15+ magnetic ride

    I agree with your comments 100%. There are these brief moments where the system seems to get damping somewhat right....at a certain temperature, over a certain bump, at a certain steering wheel angle. But, mostly it's embarrassingly bad. Wallowy and disconnected while being outright...

    2015 Suburban LTZ - BB tune-worthy?

    Anyone with a current gen 5.3 with the same impressions regarding a tune on an otherwise stock vehicle?

    2015 Suburban LTZ - BB tune-worthy?

    is it reasonable to expect no adverse effects from a BB tune? I would hate to trade my current frustrations with new issues.

    2015 Suburban LTZ - BB tune-worthy?

    Would my 2015 Suburban 5.3 benefit from a tune? It is an LTZ with the Max Trailering Package 3.42 gears. Currently have ~35,000 miles. My only "performance" goodies are a Range AFM disabler and an almost exclusive use of premium fuel. Normally, I'd be suspicious of the benefit of running...

    I have a 2015 Suburban LTZ with MRC, and both front struts were leaking and replaced at ~32,000 miles.

    2015 Tahoe LTZ front shocks leaking

    I brought my 2015 LTZ Suburban with MRC in for a rough ride concern....they mentioned both front struts were leaking and replaced under warranty @ ~32,000miles. I have to say, the ride is greatly improved. I did think it was interesting that the new Front Strut part numbers have been...

    Mrc tuning

    Does anyone know if the MRC Rear Ride Control Module and Shock Absorbers from 2016+ are compatible with 2015 MY vehicles? 2015 Ride Control Module - 23201678 2016+ Ride Control Module - 23201680 2015 Rear Shock Absorber - 23276087 2016+ Rear Shock Absorber - 84082046 Front Shock Absorber...

    Rough Ride Bulletin

    Have others had this repair performed? This TSB doesn't apply to my 7/9/2015 build 2015 Suburban LTZ w/MRC. But, my vehicle rides so poorly, I can't imagine how bad the pre-2/10/2015 vehicles must be. Does anyone know if the strut/spring p/n's have been updated since this TSB was published?

    changing mrc shocks with gas shocks

    I recently drove a 2017 Tahoe LT with the standard suspension and 20" wheels / Continental tires. The ride was fantastic. My 2015 Suburban LTZ with the Magnetic Ride Suspension and the same 20" wheels / Conti tires rides embarrassingly bad. It's both stiff and floaty at the same...

    Squeaking suspension.

    I noticed in cooler temps (~40F or less), my front suspension squeaked. It was especially noticeable at low speed going over speed bumps. I squirt the front control arms with some silicone spray ~3000 miles ago, and it's been quiet ever since. I have a '15 Suburban LTZ with the MRC.

    MRC updates / throttle response updates available for 2015 LTZ?

    I had read "MRC" tuning updates may be implemented for 2018 MY. I posted my situation / question below in another thread, but thought it might be more appropriate here. I have a '15 Suburban LTZ with the MRC and have always thought the ride was terrible. It's harsh and floaty at the same...

    Mrc tuning

    Please keep us posted what you find regarding "tuning" the MRC. I have a '15 Suburban LTZ with the MRC and have always thought the ride was terrible. It's harsh and floaty at the same time...unable to absorb small or large impacts, trasnmitting them sharply to the cabin. The harshness...
