    2012 Tahoe PPV new owner here!

    Hello again fellow SSV/PPVers. Been kinda MIA for a while due to the pandemic, work, etc., etc, but I'm back to chime in for a quick update on my PPV. I ordered a replacement hitch bar a while ago and finally got around to getting it installed. Took it to a local shop and they did a pretty job...

    Did the same connecting the 2 light brown wires from the wiring bundle under the dash. This is the link to my post with photos. Need to scroll down to post #35. https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/2012-tahoe-ppv-new-owner-here.117090/page-4

    PPV spare tire

    My 2012 was missing the spare, Jack, and tools. It has the lift winch and the shield. Bought a used PPV rim from LKQ online and the Jack/tools from EBay.

    Key in door not disabling alarm system

    Thinking the same. OP may have gotten a spare key made at a Home Depot, but they need to be copied with a special chip key.

    Best places to buy a PPV/SSV?

    I’m a little late chiming in, but I bought my 2012 Tahoe PPV retired FHP (Florida Highway Patrol) on the spot at a local auction called Tampa Machinery Auction, Inc. Got it back in February 2020 as the winning bidder for $5200 ($6052 after tax, title, reg) with 175,013 miles. Mine of course was...

    Lowering ppv

    Nice ride. Great job on the lowering. Regarding the DIC, you can buy the switch separately and in your vehicle bezel it will have the switch mounts and the plug-n-play connector on the back side. You just need to cut out the area where the switch will mount. Or, you can buy a used bezel which...

    Isn't the Goodyear tire the best option for a PPV?

    Those tires in that size (P265/60R-17) are 'V' speed rated according to the Tire Rack spec chart. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/Spec.jsp?tireMake=Hankook&tireModel=Dynapro+HP2

    Tahoe Down

    Oh man! Sorry about your PPV. It can be replaced, but not your life. Glad you're ok. I had a similar situation a few weeks ago in my other car (BMW 335). Red light runner in the adjacent side ran thru a red light in front of me and totaled it. Miraculously, I was not severely injured. Just a...

    Police steering wheel

    Ok. I have mine off my 2012 PPV after I swapped it for the one with the radio controls. It’s in good condition. No major scratches, wear, or tear. PM me if you’re interested.

    Isn't the Goodyear tire the best option for a PPV?

    I have the Kumho Crugen HP71 installed on the spare rim of my PPV. Used it when I had a flat and it handled and rode just fine. My PPV had RSAs when I bought it and I was going to replace them with the Kumho, but the tire shop discontinued selling them so I went with the BF Goodrich Advantage...

    Rear wiper not working

    I don't really use the rear wiper when it rains, but I just noticed it does not work. The last time I remember it working was before I had my PPV repainted back in June. For the whole month, it was at the body shop and so I suspect something may have happened when they took off the wiper during...

    Any issues with GM-parts direct

    I have ordered on GM Parts Direct before with no issues. Ordered the cargo tie down brackets and bolts because my PPV Tahoe didn't have them. Customer service was good. They emailed me that the bolts I ordered were not the right part that fit my vehicle and informed me of the correct one. My...

    Jump seat

    When I installed the jump seat on my 2012 PPV, I didn't cut the plastic cover. I just completely removed it and the jump seat fit right in. Removing the cover hasn't had any affect on anything while driving.

    Finally made a decision, bought a 2014 Chevrolet Tahoe PPV w/ 41,000 miles

    Congrats on your new PPV. I recently bought a retired Florida Highway Patrol 2012 PPV and had to do some interior modifications (Steering wheel with radio controls swap, add center console seat, add DIC switch, add 3rd row seat). I posted updates on these in my thread if you want to view any of...

    Isn't the Goodyear tire the best option for a PPV?

    My PPV came with the RSAs when I bought at the auction and they were terrible. Had so much vibration at highway speeds so I took it to my local Discount Tire and had them balanced, but that didn't really help. The vibration was still there. The tires looked like they still had a lot tread life...

    2012 Tahoe PPV new owner here!

    Got my PPV back from the body shop today. They did a pretty good stage 2 repaint. It no longer looks like an ugly duckling and it looks brand new again. Glad to have it back after waiting a little over a month. Pick up day pics! Purchase day pics Feb 8, 2020 July 9, 2020
