Ok, my 2003 Tahoe LS and 2003 Tahoe Z71 are gone, in their place is a new to me 2007 Yuk XL Denali. I would have preferred a 2008 or better, since I like to avoid new model years, but with only 61k on OD and in good condition, I couldn't pass it up.

I did all the maintenance/repairs (so far) on my Tahoes, but Yuk has some new stuff to me, 6.2 engine, 6 spd tranny, AWD, etc.

Bring it on, I'm a sponge here, let me know the tips, tricks, pitfalls etc. I plan on changing out all the fluids: oil, diffs, tc, brakes, etc. changing fuel/air filters, you name it.

Fill my head with Yuk knowledge.

Thanks.

Use a good quality synthetic oil (amsoil) in the diffs and transfer case. service the trans every other year (no fast lube flushes) unless you plan on towing a lot then I would do it every year. if by some chance the new 6spd has a external oil filter (spin on style) I would change that every other oil change. it never hurts to have clean fluid in the trans.
I would put a good fresh air intake, cat back exhaust or maybe long tube headers and a BB tune. just my thoughts
