Adaptive air ride question

[rswaug]

I just bought my wife a 23 Yukon XL Denali with the Reserve Package So it’s got the adaptive air ride which I love the ride of however it deflates and drops to the lowest setting every time the ignition is turned off. We leave it on the second lowest setting which appears to be normal factory ride height. Has anybody found a way to keep it from deflating? I can’t imagine that running the pump and inflating the bags every ignition cycle can be good for longevity. Thanks in advance!

Goto settings and turn off the easy enter/exit option

Awesome thanks! I figured someone here would know since there’s no owners manuals anymore.

There are owners manuals. Can download it for free from gmcs website, and my 23 tahoe has one in the glovebox.

Mine has went up and down for 2 years with no issues….
Not really worried about it….

I'm not really concerned with it now as much as a couple years down the road when the warranty expires. I'm sure the pump and air bags aren't cheap.

That’s why I got an extended warranty, air ride….it’s just one of many things that are super expensive on this vehicle. If they fall apart, I wanna be covered as long as I own it and I am.

Is Adaptive Air Ride a Standard feature on the 2023 Tahoe LS model? On some occasions (Not ALL), when I open any door/tailgate, I heard a buzzing noise. I don't recognize the Tahoe going up or down. I see in the owner manual there are controls on the dash for this like +4/-4, but my LS Tahoe doesn't have that control panel. Is it default to "Normal" mode and the Tahoe lowers 1 inch for me to get in and get out of the Tahoe? I don't feel it moving. I just don't know what that buzzing noise is. Thanks in advance.

just finding the suspension inflated in static while the car is at rest is more harmful. All pressure seals are there.

Only an opinion on Z71 and High Country on Chevrolet; and on AT4 and Denali on GMC.

The air suspension on my ‘22 At4 has developed a slow leak. After being parked overnight the rear sits about 1.5” lower than normal. Have 32k miles on it. Dealer cant’t find the leak but has ordered new air springs and some fittings as first try. I’m still under warranty but parts on the invoice were listed at approx $900 (labor not shown).

Just chiming in to agree with Stbentoak that an extended warranty may be worthwhile.

The way I look at it...if I don't use it then I must have gotten a truly great vehicle and possibly should hang on to it longer. If I do use it, I know that the coverage will get me thru the time period that I normally keep a vehicle anyways. I've wasted money on worse things, and a couple of good claims in the 5-6th year of ownership like power boards, or Air suspension, could more than make it all worthwhile...
