    2016 Suburban burn trans fail 76k

    I actually just responded to a transmission post and mentioned torque converter failure. You have to replace that torque converter with a heavy duty and change the megatron and valve body along with the rebuild Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    2016 tahoe ltz feeling sluggish lately

    Torque converter. These trucks have torque converter issues that start as sluggishness and end up with a blow tranny at around 100k . I rebuilt my transmission 3 times . The transmission guy told me that his customers with this vehicle were experiencing problems so hes now going with heavy duty...

    Thinking of a newer SUV...a little help please?

    For 25k you can get a 2016 to 2017 tahoe with about 50k on the the dash . These cars are a pleasure to drive when everything is working properly, but those year models that are in your price range have a few serious issues, the most serious being lifter/valve/camshaft issues at just above 100k...

    Need opinion on what to do about broken headlight

    I'd roll the dice on aftermarket, maybe even consider it an upgrade. Check 1aauto.com they usually have good quality cheap stuff . Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    '19-'20 Reliability/longevity?

    Not only am I an NYC livery driver , but I have a few buddies with 2015 - 2016 models and we all add oil between changes, and all of us have replaced our coolant reservoirs for leakage issues. All of us have replaced condensers , brake vacuum stabilizer links etc. etc. The list goes on . I...

    '19-'20 Reliability/longevity?

    Well ..... I made my decision. If I buy another suburban, I'll be going for the 2020 or trying to get a sweet deal on a 2019 . Not impressed with the the new design at all . The front end is ok , it's just nice , nothing to write home about but cool . The rear end looks like the last gen...

    '19-'20 Reliability/longevity?

    I have a 2015 and I had some rough idling issues at about 80k , ended up having to change lifters at about 105 - 110k . I guess the first thing to know is what type of oil and fuel you are using . Also , keep a close eye on the oil and coolant levels. These trucks burn oil more than average...

    '19-'20 Reliability/longevity?

    Going through the same dilemma of thinking if I should wait for the 2021 . I use mine for car service and I have to retire my 2015 by law before 2021 . Should I pick up a 2020 in the summer (if I can save up the down payment) or get a fresh new 2021 model ? The things I'm considering is that...

    Any ideas?

    It's tough, we know that that the dealership isnt going to say " here sir , here's a new engine on the house " . I think that the best thing that you can do is to go to where you purchased the vehicle and TELL them that the truck has bad lifters .Say engine/lifter problem when you make the...

    Any ideas?

    I've had my lifters go bad and that's definitely a lifter noise . Before it totally shit on itself, I would get that intermittent tic for about 30 k . I even went to the dealership and they tried to tell me that the injectors are loud on these vehicles and that's all that it was , I knew it was...

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    Mikeyss is right about the resistors , sorry about not mentioning that . If you use the Bilstein shocks all around with oem springs itll give you a perfectly leveled stance by getting rid of the natural rake that these trucks have with the 1.6 front height increase. Rancho 7000mt is also a...

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    I would convert to a standard suspension because Even if you repair it something else will happen down-the-line. Just treat yourself to a 2" lift or at least a level with new springs and shocks all the way around. Bilstein B3 springs Bilstein 5100 series shocks/struts Check here...

    Escalade side mirrors on a Tahoe LTZ!

    They are actually about the same size as the Escalade mirrors, just that the Escalade mirrors are a bit more boxy. Escalade mirrors closer to a square where these drift to more of a lengthier rectangular shape. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Escalade side mirrors on a Tahoe LTZ!

    No , not Escalade mirrors . They are definitely bigger than oem Tahoe/suburban mirrors , but they are an aftermarket design. Cost about 75% less than Escalade mirrors also Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Show off your 2015+ leveled Tahoes and Yukons!

    Honestly I feel that if you're gonna go for a 2" lift , replacing the front shocks to a 2" leveling shock is the way to go . You'll get a new set of shocks and more travel for the same money and effort . Rancho 7000mt recommended. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Escalade side mirrors on a Tahoe LTZ!

    Just had them Installed today. My truck wasnt wired for the turn signals from the factory ,so brought it to my mechanic to be wired . He didnt want to set up the turn signals saying that it wasnt worth messing with the trucks wiring, then drilling and risking water damage etc. Talented mechanic...
