    Threshold for extending an extended warranty

    I suggest reading the contract and finding out what the exclusions are...the platnium usually is "All parts except..." and then a list of the exceptions. That is pretty clear...its either a part that is excluded or it isn't.

    Intermittent Radio On Start Up

    FWIW, I now have an audio cutout more like 1-2 min after a drive starts, vs. immediately. But, my CarPlay connection and the blower thing remain resolved...so it feels better than it was....

    Auto Stop / Start Turn itself off?!?!

    Mine is doing it less and less now...State of Charge of the Battery is an input into whether or not AutoStop functions. Been doing a fair number of short trips lately...kind of attribute it to that. Did notice it started doing it again after I took a 3 hr road trip... My gut says battery health...

    Main Bearing Failure with 6.2L at 3,200 miles

    Except, in the case of engines, I am not sure how much of it is made by GM vs suppliers. Guessing the cast block, heads, crank, and maybe pistons and rods are made by GM, bt the latter two could be from one of the suppliers, have heard Federal Mogul does make soem pistons. The bearings, rings...

    Oil consumption between changes

    We are all hoping the same; but there definitely more than a few cases of spun rod bearings out there on these things…maintaining well is a great start at extending the life…but if GM built your engine with bad parts, all bets are off

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    I think they are not the same. Chevrolet says “3 years remote access plan; OnStar and WiFi capable” (blue arrow below) Denali says “3 Years OnStar Premium Plan” and itemizes the included services (red arrow below). The Denali gets 3 years free unlimited data, the high end OnStar Package, and...

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    Checked this afternoon when leaving work. On approach, all interior lights turned on. Opened lift gate, all lights on but everything but the cargo area light faded out after a few seconds..

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    I get my navi info from the HUD, so never take my eyes off the road. HC has HUD too, right? All good, thats why there are options for us, Chevy lost me w/ the dash layout, I don't prefer the screen sticking up into nowhere look...and much perefer the front end of the GMC vs. Chevy and didin't...

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    Actually, there are quite a few differences in the HC vs the Denali, here is what I know is on Denali that is not on HC: Fog Lights Dash Layout Leather Seats in 2nd row, vs fake leather in Tahoe Different Leather on the seats -- forget what GM called it, but its def different (can argue if...

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    Shouldve got the High Trim Denali...I walk out to my vehicle in a dark garage and the rear kick logo turns on, the fuel pump primes, and all the interior lights turn on as soon as I step out onto the step just outside the door to the house; at this point I am probably 10 feet from the...

    No locking fuel door this generation??

    I kind of wish it had a locking mechanism, or like the Honda's I have owned, a cable to a lever near the hood release... I have personally never had any issues, but some friend's had their Acadia parked in the driveway and some vandals put sugar and eggs in the gas tank one night. Was about a...

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    Will have to look through it...but I don't recall ever enabling it. All I know is that if I walk up on the vehicle, the lights come on...Has to be dark outside...obviously. And it is not the extrior lights, its the interior ones...

    3rd row dome light on with lift gate?

    Maybe it is a Denali thing, but my interior lights light up as I walk up to the vehicle ...don't even have to open the doors

    USB PORTS

    This is the first time in this tread you have reported what drive format you are using. Someone said in an earlier post (#9) that they had success when formatted to FAT32. Suggest reformatting your USB flash to FAT32 (or perhaps trying a different flash drive already formatted to FAT32). Also...

    Rodent Damage

    You can thank some environmental regs for this. A few years back was way worse, when the cable manufacturers first went to soy based insulation. They have since added some stuff in the mix that is supposed to repel critters...but nothing is fool proof, and rats/mice/chipmunks are crafty... Glad...

    6.2L Rough idle and poor low RPM response

    It is possible this is transmission shudder vs. engine...worth taking it in and ask service manager to take a ride w/ you. Techs can hook up diags and drive it, or have you drive it, and monitor things...Misfires are reported as are fuel trims, and a bunch of otther stuff...

    Stunned!! Denali 6.2 spun a rod bearing at 25k..

    I still wonder about this and the bearings failing. Wonder how many that failed have been running 87? I also wonder about GM changing the “recommended” to 91 instead of 93 between 2021 and 2022…

    2021 Yukon Denali Trailering Tire Pressure Monitor Sensors

    If you have ZL6, you have it..not only U1D...but the key to having "it" is having the Max Traiering Package, option code NHT, and if you have NHT, you will have a factory trailer brake controller.
