Washed her up yesterday and notice this space on bottom of the fin gasket. Is this normal? I’m not getting any wetness inside but I’m looking at it and wondering why not? Could the fact I keep it garaged be hiding a problem down the line.

Yes, it's to allow water to drain if it gets in there.

@BigPac @Doubeleive

I was wonder who would notice the forum home page on the screen. :cool:


It is a puck that does wireless Android Auto/Carplay and is a stand alone Android device with a slot for sim card and micro USB. Basically turns the head unit into a tablet. YouTube, Netflix, Chrome. Any app you could run on a tablet works. It also bypasses the in gear lockout. Its on Amazon but cheaper from the manufacturer.
I've been strongly considering one of these types of devices. I always see ads for "magic box" etc
Wanting to have YouTube and stuff playing on long car rides for my wife in the passenger seat and for me to listen to/follow along without being too distracted.

Might have to get one before a vacation road trip over the 4th

@Jeff_

I have WIFI in the truck for just such purposes. If some one has a tablet or lap top they will have internet. The device I have will connect to the truck and use its data connection.

Inside panel drivers side…97%
too many fuses on these things and different sizes & types, you have to carry a lunch box of extra's "just in case"
from a production stand point it makes zero sense to make multiple varieties of fuses that differentiates from a standard that has been in place for years.
some engineer was like "hold my beer" watch this..........

I do carry a couple packs of assorted fuses of the types I've seen in the vehicle, but does anyone have a complete list of all fuses (incl fuse type) required for spares? I can go through the fuse-box diagrams, but if the work is already done, that would save some time.

No, list but some of those fuses are not cheap for anything worth a dam anyway. I just throw a variety of them in a zip lock bag and toss them in the center console.
anytime I go to the junkyard I usually pocket a few oem ones so I have some good quality ones, bought some "amazon" specials or harbor freight variety packs before and they are mostly junk fuses that bend or fall apart with ease.
the only saving grace is in a pinch you could probably hijack a fuse from a non essential system and make it home.
not that fuse failure is a common issue, the whole issue for me is why have 10 different things, if it was a "limited space" issue then just use all micro fuses..........
only real issue I have ran into over the years is maybe a headlight fuse burnt out at night on a sunday when everything is closed and just want to drive home...
anything else has just been completely random....

at the moment I just need to look and see which one gets switched to keep usb power on the hotspot the wife uses for the kids wi-fi goes dead if it sits.
easy to just throw it in the center console and forget about it but if it goes dead then bleh...
I have some that are free with no fee's just needs to be charging, saves the $15 monthly onstar fee

Anyone know what these things are called? I’ve searched “chrome pillar trim” “rear pillar trim” “chrome trim” can’t seem to find replacements. IMG_6529.jpeg

I changed the Transmission Fluid, the Filter and the Harness on my Wife's '17 Yukon XL Denali. It solved the hard 1-2 shift in the truck!!

GM Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness P/N 24298757 has been Superseded (replaced) by P/N 24046895 according to GM Parts Direct

WOO HOO!!

Put kayaks on it! For those who may wonder what my setup is, I bought 220 lb capacity aftermarket crossbars that screw into the mount points on the factory rails:


Then, bought the Malone J-style kayak racks with straps:


And finally, the Malone TelusXL kayak load assistant bars:


The load assist bars have a cradle on them that lets you load a kayak with one person by sliding up the ratcheting cradles, alternating from front to back of the kayak. Slicker than owl shit. For anyone who's tried to load kayak on a Suburban, it's a real comedy show without something like this - even with 2 people.

passenger side mirror power fold motor kicked the bucket, so luckily the process to R&R is virtually identical to the gmt900's.
even the motor from a gmt900 fits, the only catch is the power connector would need to be swapped also at least I am pretty sure didn't do a full mock up
they switched the connector on the k2's to the outside and longer pins, but they bolt up the same and the arm fits
luckily I had a partially broken mirror I picked up a few months ago for free so salvaged the motor from it. couldn't even find any motors for the k2 mirrors for sale.
