2015 Yukon Maintenance

What do you guys think of what they want to charge for these items, picture shows costs?

Have 85K miles on it. Do I need to have 4wd differential fluid flush?

object sensor and harness you could probably do yourself and save a bit of money, oil & transmission lines can be a real pain in the butt to do but you could do them also if you have a day of free time.

My Tahoe with 80K miles on it also has leaking oil and transmission lines and they want about the same amount to fix. I did some research and the trans line seems like something I can do myself but the oil cooler lines appear to tucked up under the transmission and may be a pain to access. Apparently these lines leaking is a normal occurrence.

I keep checking my oil level and trans fluid levels but they don't seem to ever be low so at least it's not an emergency for me yet.

I'd also be curious what everyone thinks are the main items that "must" be serviced soon.

Is your truck leaving oil or transmission fluid spots or showing their levels dropping? If not, I’d doubt that it’s a necessary repair.

for $15 you can buy a flare kit, cut the leaking section out, flare the end and put a hose and clamps on it, end of problem and probably less than $30 total cost, the flare kit+ some hose line and little box of clamps.

My oil levels also seem to be good. I'd also be interested on what are considered "must" services.

I haven't noticed any spots in driveway, levels don't seem to drop

“Must” would depend on how badly they’re leaking. Ask for pictures if you haven’t already picked up your vehicle. I generally wait until drips are forming. My wife’s Yukon is almost there on the transmission lines.

As far as the four wheel drive, I’d recommend the transfer case every 50k and differentials every 100k.

GM Tech I know said those lines always weep just a little; something about the crimping process wasn't quite right.
Dealers always want to do that replacement. When I said no they cut the prices in half.. but I still didn't do it. Much later I had unrelated transmission problem and replacement; They did the lines then to "Guarantee the Transmission"..
