    Remove airbag stickers?

    Have you tried a product called GOO GONE ??? It’s an adhesive remover that I usually buy at the dollar store. The stuff works great on pretty well anything I’ve ever used it on to get rid of stickers and such !!! smells like oranges, so not offensive either.

    Considering an SSV and have some questions

    Hello, aren’t you supposed to run in auto 4x4 all the time ? That’s what I am doing with my 2016 PPV Suburban. Should I be running it in 2wd all the time, if I don’t need 4 wheel drive ? What can go wrong ?

    One thing that I always used to do while I worked in the HVAC field working on huge centrifugal chillers was to put all your screws, nuts, bolts, etc, into separate zip lock bags as you take them off, and LABLE THEM as to exactly what they are so that you can reassemble it a LOT easier. LABLE...

    New Tires - who's running 44psi ???

    Hello, I’m running BFG AT’s M+S on my 2015 Suburban PPV and I had that scrubbing noise as well. It is the tires being oversized and rubbing on the fender liner when you kick your wheels over all the way. I went to my mechanic and he took a knife and just cut out the offending spot where it was...

    Hey, I am experiencing the same thing, that buffeting noise from outside. I have. 2015 Suburban PPV. Almost seems like your drivers door is not closed all the way.

    New ppv owner

    Sorry, but I have a 2015 PPV/SSV and it has 4wheel drive as well as a trailer hitch on it. It also came with this huge assed tactical assault style front bumper with a 12,000 lb winch built into it as well. The police force kept the winch, and the dealer took the bumper off and replaced all the...

    Floormats for the slick floor

    You think your floor was slick ? When I bought my 2015 Suburban PPV , the guy doing the detailing decided that the full rubber floor needed to be detailed as well, so he sprayed who knows what onto it.

    Hi, thanks for the reply. It feels like something is broken or jammed in there. Sometimes it works and turns better than others. And it often sticks when pushed in and springs out. Any tips on how to get the knob off so that I can clean it up, or possibly lubricate it ?
