    Is this true?

    Brilliant observation. Maybe that's why BMW and Mercedes Benz charges more money for their products.

    ACTUAL Fuel Economy

    My wife commutes about 70 miles each day in light traffic and generally sets her cruise control at 65MPH and leaves it alone, she consistently gets 20-21 mpg (actual checked against the miles traveled vs. fuel burned). When I have used it for long trips at about 80-85MPH I normally get 17-18mpg...

    Just switched to mobil 1 0w30 from valvoline synpower5w30

    So you can "feel" the difference in the way the engine runs depending on the brand of synthetic oil that you are running??? Allrighty then, if you say so.

    Anyone seen running car on water HHO

    While there are hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles currently being tested this simple device is nothing more than a clever way to dupe consumers with the hydrogen guise. To implement a real working hydrogen fuel system on a modern GM vehicle would require much more then the few lousy parts...

    How accurate is the oil life indicator?

    There is a difference between being sorry and just plain wasteful (or overkill). I have seen many fleet operated (to numerous to mention) GM vehicles over the years that have been serviced with marginal brands of conventional oil and no-name filters that have gone well beyond 500,000 miles and...

    0% interest

    That would be a real nifty trick since the 0.0% (thru GMAC) is not offered on 2009 models and it expires tomorrow.

    anybody know how to remove Water spots??

    +1 A claybar is a great and inexpensive way to remove most all contaminants from the paint surface, I use a claybar on my vehicles once or twice a year and then apply wax, it normally takes only about 2 hours. Be very careful using thinner on the paint, it can remove the luster. A household...

    Wire in Bose Wiring Harness

    The wire is normally bare and is a drain wire that's purpose is to remove any residual or static charge from the components. If you do wind up replacing the amp make sure to have someone with a Tech-2 go thru a set-up and calibration on the new amp.

    2004 Tahoe Bose Amp wont shut off

    It's rare but the switching circuit in the amp can become faulty causing the amplifier to either remain on or or not turn on. To isolate the problem I would first see if you can pick up a used amp on Ebay, if that fixes your problem then you're done otherwise resale the amp and start chasing wires.

    Random long cranking hard to start problem

    I have seen after-market remote start kits introduce all sorts of problems, but with that amount of miles I would suspect dirty injectors still. The easiest way to clean the fuel injectors yourself is to add four to six 12oz bottles of Techron fuel system cleaner to one full tank of gas and...

    Trouble Filling tank and I am not talking about the price.

    Other than an obstruction in the filler tube the likely cause of the premature fuel pump shut-off is the particular gas stations pressure and variation in OPW 11B fuel nozzle, try a different station and see what happens. What EVAP fault code are you getting?

    GM Lockpick info

    For anyone interested I have one of the original Gen1 Lockpick that I have been using in an 07 Tahoe for the last year and a half, just removed it to ready the Tahoe for resale. The unit works perfectly and I have the original instructions if anyone is interested let me know with a PM. Cost is...

    Car shutting off after 2 weeks away

    The stalling could be caused by fuel injection line pressure bleed-off from sitting, the fuel pump will repressureise the system just before ignition but sometimes a bubble can form in the rail which can result in the engine stalling. The noisy engine could be from the oil film draining from...

    Smm Performance (scott Mckkinney) Warnin

    You may be able to have USPS investigate this as you used the post office to send your funds, this is called "mail fraud" when the items that you purchased are not sent. This is a Federal crime that can land someone in prison if very many claims are filed.

    2005 Z71 Tahoe Rear Bumper RUSTING

    This type of minor surface corrosion is covered under the GM new car 3 year OR 36,000 miles warranty. Since you waited beyond this point (by nearly 3k miles) it is difficult to have anything done. If it where a mechanical failure (like a transmission) then the dealer can ask GM for a goodwill...
