    Stalling At Idle

    Thanks Fless. Is there any risk in doing it that way like needing some kind of an idle relearn from a high end scan tool? Is it ok to manipulate the butterfly while it’s off the truck or will a motor or solenoid or something in there get damaged? Thanks again for the help

    Stalling At Idle

    Thank you for the reply. I’m not the original owner. I bought it with around 115-120k on it from what I remember so I’m not sure of prior maintenance. As far as cleaning it from the outside, can I manipulate the butterfly without causing any issues with the idle after I’m done? I know this...

    Stalling At Idle

    I have an 08 Tahoe LT 4x4 with the 5.3 in it and around 135k on it. I only drive it primarily on the weekends because I have a work vehicle. A few weeks ago while at an extended idle and in park the engine died. I turned the key off and on and it started right back up immediately with no CEL...

    Bluetooth mic placement

    So I added a factory VCIM, plug and play with built in Bluetooth antenna, recently from a newer vehicle to give my 08 Tahoe factory hands free phone. It works flawlessly. I want to stream my music though and due to the unavailability of the add-on modules that just do music streaming, I ended...

    Bluetooth Adapter

    I am looking to buy a Bluetooth adapter for my 2008 Tahoe. I’d like to get one of the units that plugs into the XM module behind the glove box. I already have Bluetooth for the phone so I am looking for one of the adapters that does only music steaming. Crux makes a BTS-GM1X and ISS Automotive...

    Air Cleaner???

    Thanks for the reply. So if the box is the same, what was the option? Just the filter itself is deeper? Is there any disadvantage to running the larger filter?

    Air Cleaner???

    So I was just looking online at air cleaners for my 2008 Tahoe LT 4x4 5.3 and I keep seeing multiple options for “with high capacity air cleaner” and “without high capacity air cleaner”. How do you tell which air intake box you have? I could look at the part number of the existing air cleaner...

    That was already maxed Michael. Thanks for the suggestion though.

    Aux Input

    Hi, So I installed a new VCIM and I get Bluetooth over the phone now, and I bought a USB C to 3.5mm aux cable to use my iPhone 16 Pro to listen to music through my 08 Tahoe non-Nav with Bose. It works but the audio is significantly quieter than through the stereo than the volume of the radio...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    The top ad in your post is already sold. Waiting on a response from the other one.

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Thanks for that Fless. I did look but nothing is available in my area. Not sure how you do a nationwide search but I’ll try to figure it out and see if any are available to ship.

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Just to update, the unit works great. Sounds good too especially considering the age of the hardware. Now I’m looking for a solution to stream music. The Crux BTS-GM1X seems to be exactly what I’m looking for but it’s hard to come by. It’s for music only, no phone, and plugs in at the XM module...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Petethepug yes lots of sharp edges back there with no room to work. Those plugs do not want to be separated from their homes after 17 years either.

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Well it is possible, but it’s not fun. As you can see in the pic, the blue and purple plugs are actually long enough to disconnect from the front, but mine must have been caught up on something in the back because after unplugging the 2 molex type connectors by reaching through the slot with 1...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    So I got this far. The VCIM is loose (old brittle plastic doesn’t like to bend so it snapped as soon as I tried to pry 1 side with my fingers) but the wiring doesn’t let it slide out the front enough to disconnect everything. I see that the front portion of the console is separate from the rest...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Hmmmmm. Looking at that pic again I bet I have to remove those 2 bolts in front of the VCIM and whatever those are holding down. It will probably slide right out the front then. I’ll post back tomorrow.

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Here’s a pic I found in the archives of exactly what it looks like once the HVAC and bottom module are removed. I took out the radio as well but it doesn’t really provide any more room down the bottom where space is needed. I pried the 2 clips apart but the module didn’t want to slide up and...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    Thanks Michael. I had it as far as your video shows today, but getting the actual VCIM out of the cavity looked like a bear as there is a plastic brace that runs right over it. I didn’t know if the front sides of the console had to be removed so that the wiring could all be unplugged before...

    2008 Tahoe LT VCIM Swap

    I have a 2008 Tahoe LT with XM and Bose but no nav and I am swapping in a 2010 Continental VCIM to get factory Bluetooth functionality for the phone. I have a question on the mechanicals of it though. I took off the trim piece around the radio/hvac and took out the bottom module for the power...
