    spare tire kit for the hybrids(with pics)

    so I there's not a lot of these trucks left, and even less of the spare tire kits. but I wanted to post a few pics, since when I was looking there's almost nothing online about it. so the hybrids didn't come with a spare, just a inflator with some fix a flat in it. so they sold an add on kit at...

    No start? check in here.

    some files that might help with no starts, I see threads all over about when these hybrids don't start and there's just so many reasons. nothing about these crank like a normal car. the learning curve is kinda brutal if you haven't been into trouble shooting electronics in newer cars for a...

    adding a block heater?

    mine doesn't have the K05 rpo code.. does anyone know of the most oem way to add one? figuring the oem would be most reliable but I did see something about the oem one only working below 0. which would work, but seems like a bit of a waste?

    cheap tool for pulling the rear axle bearings without damaging the speed sensor.

    just got done doing my rear axle bearings and seals, seal was seeping. 155k. eh. not bad. I searched threads here and some sprial out of control because you need a special gm tool to get behind the bearing, but not damage the reluctor wheel for the speed sensor that's like a 1/4in behind it...

    another oil filter thread. youtube tests.

    I feel like these guys are doing a pretty good job of testing filters with interesting results. in the end the run the oil thru the filters with the madia added, and then send the sample off to be tested for how much was left in the oil. the cleaner the oil, the better the filters. I have had...

    oil reports for a hybrid

    I'll start a thread over here since I think people only really visit here when their hybrid breaks Googling for answers. but here's an oil and transmission fluid sample results. the engine 140ish k on it, (just about to hit 150k today) afm is not officially deleted, but turned off with hptuners...

    pod cast from engine builders about gm afm failures.

    I haven't gotten thru it all yet, but I thought it dealt with a lot of the issues I see threads here about. AFM and cheap replacement parts.

    ac seats?

    another post about seat covers made me think of it. mine has cooled seats but they don't seem to do much. drivers side maybe a little better than passenger. lots of hot air blow out if the back exhaust vent, so I'm guessing it's cooling. just don't feel any air coming thru the seats. is it...

    new manual swap kit.

    for anyone that hasn't see it. they just released, or I just saw it was released. it's only for 2wd trucks and suvs. but seems cool, hopefully they get it to hook up to a transfer case at some point...

    the add to quarts of oil test? has it worked for anyone?

    only really reading up on this Gen engines now and don't want to hijack another thread. it makes sense and I see it recommended a lot, has anyone done it and it raised oil pressure? if so, how much? I only ask out of curiosity. mine is an 11 with 145k has really high oil pressure, but being a...

    afterblow option runs more than once?

    so I have the afterblow option set on in a 2011 yukon. it has helped with the smell it had. but randomly I happened to be relaxing in the truck when it came on, seemed to be the rear only, I thought it was the front ac too? anyways it comes on and runs for a while and turns back off.. and then a...

    ac temp setting.

    not sure if this is the correct section, but wondering if anyone knows what the ac temp settings do when the ac is powered off? yesterday changed the battery and noticed you can adjust the temp with the ac off and it doesn't seem to be the same setting as when the ac is on. like you can adjust...

    adaptive valve in the exhaust.

    probably already been asked but I don't see it. so I was under the truck today and noticed my 2011 has that spring loaded exhaust flapper after the muffler. from everything I've seen they didn't start till the next Gen 2014 and up. is it just a hybrid thing since 08 or something changed along...

    torque pro hybrid Battery pids for P0BBD dtc

    so pretty much there's no good info out to be found on these trucks. and definitely not in one place. scanners that go deep enough to show data and reset useful stuff aren't cheap or easy to find. the free auto parts store scan is mostly useless besides just giving you a code. as for the...
