    2019 yukon xl shake when breaks

    Tires most definitely. I went with the Pirelli Scorpion’s. Soft smooth ride handle well, but not sold on wear. Like others have said Michelin Defenders are really good

    Recommended Fluids - Transfer Case, Front Diff, Rear Diff

    Something I just found out. The service manual actually calls for using new bolts when installing cover. Hmmm. I reused my old ones. Oh well. Torque is 30 lb ft.

    Yep. That’s what I would say.

    Front Wheel Bearing

    So recently I have been hearing a hum come from the front end while traveling over 40. If I turn right it gets worse and if I turn left the sound fades. That told me that the bearing on the front right was going out. Long story short I replaced the hub with a new OEM one and it’s nice and quiet...

    No crank no start 2015 Chevy Tahoe

    I would replace your battery cables. There has been issues with the resistance in these cables causing all sorts of electrical issues. This might guide you in the right direction. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10168185-9999.pdf

    2019 Chevy Tahoe towing an rv

    If your handy change out your transmission thermostat to the new version which opens at 155 degrees instead of 195. Very easy swap out to prolong the life of the trans especially if your going to be doing some towing

    My Truck Arrived (2022 Suburban RST 6.2) and a question...

    I would leave it alone IMO. Unfortunately it looks like a paint drip vs a clear coat drip. Clear coat might have been able to been wet sanded out. You could always run it by a paint shop to get an opinion. My 2018 had dust particles throughout the clearcoat. I left it alone. At first it bothered...

    Automatic transmission fluid and differentials

    When I changed the rear end oil I sprayed the entire gear and housing down with brake cleaner because even though it’s drained there is a black film still left on the gears and housing. I left it for about 30 min to evaporate and anything little bit standing in the bottom I just soaked up with a...

    Automatic transmission fluid and differentials

    I would go OEM. I just don’t trust the aftermarket ones especially in something not easily accessed like the trans. Not saying after market is bad. Just me.

    Automatic transmission fluid and differentials

    I have always ordered from the website. I don’t know if any stores that carry it. There may be a few but I’m sure it’s marked up. If your going through the effort of changing the fluid I would drop the pan, change the filter, clean the magnet and pan this way your getting any of the fine metals...

    Windshield Chipping 2021 Yukon

    It’s like that with many new cars from what I read. My wife just got a new Palisade and the same thing is happening. They are making them cheaper I believe. My older cars would take a good hit before they chip but not now.

    Tranmission Fluid flush and filter change

    You should change your thermostat as well. Mine runs about 150 max 160. It’s an easy job

    Transmission too cold?

    I replaced my original thermostat for the new one which lowers the temp to around 150. Would the fluid show a lower fill mark from when I was checking while at the original operating temp of say 195? I haven’t had time to check on level ground.

    Recommended Fluids - Transfer Case, Front Diff, Rear Diff

    I used AMSOIL severe gear 75w-90 for the diffs and ATF Signature for the transfer case. Should last an easy 100k.

    2019 Yukon Key Fob Range Blows...What Would You Do?

    No problem. I like to contribute when I can. I get a lot of useful information from others as well. Mine is still going strong. No issues to report.

    Updated Thermal Control Valve

    No connectors needed on mine. My tranny lines just push in and get covered with the plate held down by small bolt.

    2019 Yukon Key Fob Range Blows...What Would You Do?

    I’m sure it was attached with some adhesive. A small dab of Gorilla glue will probably do the trick. I don’t think it will stop the signal. Just my opinion

    Updated Thermal Control Valve

    My original had the plate with the bolt so that is what I used.

    2017 Tahoe trans needs replacement

    Unfortunately there seems to be a high rate of torque converter failures. Was the trans ever serviced? Also GM sent out a bulletin recently to replace the temp control valve if vehicle comes in with transmission problems. The temp is being lowered from 195 to 150. I just replaced my valve...

    Updated Thermal Control Valve

    Just installed the updated TCV (thermostat) for my 6L80e. Took about 30 min once I found the correct size sockets and got set up. Trans temp now doesn’t go about 150. Part was about 50 bucks. Part number is 86774933 if anyone is interested. I think it’s well worth it.
