  4. Looks like you need a different colour for your text
  5. When an order is created at the dealer it has an order number (that is a bunch of letters) The order is tracked using the order number, until build is far enough along to assign the VIN.
  6. Is it that far out all the time or just at start-up?
  7. You will be sad if you add LS additive to your G80
  8. If it has FCA, but not HUD it will have a 'slot' in the dash so it can project the warning for collision alert. If it does have HUD the projector is larger (more like a square or rectangle) and it has the buttons on the dash. There is a section in the manual about FCA. for 2022 2500 (I think they may have changed the 'without HUD display' on later HD's
  9. How fast were you running when this was going on? Was it steady speed? What's temp does it get to when running highway without the trailer? Approximate dimensions and weight of trailer?
  10. I wasn't thinking about / referring to lemon law.
  11. Short wheelbase -- GMC Yukon, Chev Tahoe and Cadillac Escalade or Escalade-V Long wheelbase -- GMC Yukon XL, Chev Suburban and Cadillac Escalade ESV or Escalade ESV-V Each one is available in multiple trim levels and each trim level also has available options -- so pricing will vary. 2025 model year is a 'refresh' year / significant change year
  12. Have you been through the steps in the back of the owners manual?
  13. Step one is check battery voltage with a voltmeter With battery dead enough that it won't crank lots of lights /messages are to be expected.
  14. No. (unless it's a 6.2) Premium has the same amount of BTU's per gallon (same available power per gallon)
  15. Were you running in tow/haul mode?
  16. Is it working as a regular mirror or is it a blank screen? Is the compass in the camera mirror a new feature for '24 or is it a Denali Ultimate feature? My '23 'regular' Denali has camera rear view but no compass.
  17. Does your QR code show rpo code YK9? If it does, it is one of the ones that doesn't have the electronics to run cylinder deactivation.
  18. A refresher on the contract (copied from Detroit News) Economics of the deal Compounded, wage increases would total 27% over the four-and-a-half years, up from the $32.22 per hour top wage today. That includes an immediate 11% increase followed by 3% hikes in 2024, '25 and '26. Members would get a 5% increase in 2027. There also is a $5,000 ratification bonus for all GM employees, including members at GM Subsystems, CCA, Ultium Cells and Components Holdings. All active temporary employees with 90 days service prior to effective date would also receive the $5,000 ratification bonus. With reinstatement of cost-of-living adjustments that were suspended in 2009, the union estimated the top wage will rise 33% to more than $42 per hour. The starting wage would increase by 67% compounded with estimated COLA to more than $30 an hour. For production workers, the top rate, not including estimated COLA, would increase to $35.88 from $32.32 upon ratification; to $36.96 next year; to $38.07 in 2025; to $39.21 in 2026; and to $41.17 in 2027. The union estimates that COLA would add $1.78 to base wages by the end of the agreement and a total value of about $8,800. GM's temporary employees would start at $21 per hour and convert to full-time after nine months. All employees at GM Subsystems, Customer Care and Aftersales and GM Components Holdings will immediately convert to GM's main production rate upon ratification of the deal. These union members will have an immediate wage boost of between 36% and 89%, according to the union. For example, a current Components Holdings member with three years of service making $18.96 per hour will have hourly wages increase nearly $17 upon ratification to $35.88. The wage scales at Subsystems, CCA and Components Holdings are identical to the scale for in-progression GM workers with pay per hour starting at $25.12 and going to $35.88 in three years. For health care coverage, the deal would come with no increases in co-pays, deductibles or out-of-pocket costs for members. Additionally, coverage will now start on the date of hire for all new employees. The deal would end tiered vacation time and would make employees with 20 years or more of service eligible for 200 hours of vacation. GM has added Juneteenth as a paid holiday. GM, according to the union, also agreed to provide eligible members up to two weeks of paid time off for a leave of absence for birth, adoption, surrogacy or foster care situations. This would be effective Jan. 1, 2024. The deal with GM includes similar benefits to what's in the pacts with Ford and Stellantis including: A three-year progression period to top wages, down from eight years. Reinstatement of cost-of-living allowances. All new temporary employees would be converted to in-progression employees after nine months. All full-time temporary employees with 90 days would be converted to in-progression. A 10% 401(k) employer contribution. A $5,000 ratification bonus. Right to strike over plant closings. Temporary employees get profit sharing. The UAW-GM agreement includes $500 annual payments for current retirees and surviving spouses. For current traditional members, it includes a $5 increase to the basic benefit that will bring an increase of $1,800 a year to future pensioners. And the company plans to offer three special attrition programs starting in January and lasting through the end of the agreement. The program would offer $50,000 lump-sum retirement incentives for eligible traditional employees. "The company and the union will agree on timing, size and scope of the offering," according to the highlighter. And members with 401(k)s will see the employer contribution increase to 10%, with no required member contribution. The highlighter also notes a program that will allow members to purchase GM stock through payroll deductions "in the near future." For its represented salaried GM workers, the union touted that for the first time ever it was able to negotiate general wage increases for the unit. "Not only did we get GWIs, we got them every year, and matched our hourly raises for a total of 25% over the life of the contract," the union said in the salaried highlighter.

Gains at Ultium Cells If the deal is ratified, Ultium Cells workers would receive an immediate pay increase of at least $6 to $8 per hour, according to the highlighter. All new hires at Ultium would make a minimum of 75% of the maximum wage rate under the deal. Upon ratification of the deal, an Ultium worker making $20 per hour currently would see a 34% increase in pay to $26.91. By the end of the deal, that worker would go to $30.88 per hour. The Detroit News reported Friday that the contract will allow workers displaced by the 2019 closure of Lordstown Assembly Plant the opportunity to transfer to GM's nearby joint-venture battery plant in northeast Ohio. Should the deal be ratified, there would be a six-month window for former Lordstown employees working at the plant on Nov. 26, 2018, to apply to return and work for the GM and LG Energy Solution Ultium Cells LLC plant next door to the Lordstown facility GM closed after 50 years of production. Former workers who transfer would retain their current wages, benefits and seniority. Ultium worker Liz Lisk, who currently makes $23 per hour as a crew leader, said in a statement: "It's great we are included in the national agreement, but seems it was truly an afterthought and we aren't valued the same as current employees. Our top wage is $5 less than everyone else. And to top it off, ex-Lordstown employees can transfer to our plant and keep their higher wages. How is that fair to those of us that have been there through the growing pains." Ultium worker Johnny Pence was happy with the deal since the wage increases are "a far cry from where I started a year ago at $17." Pence currently makes $22 per hour on the night shift at the Ultium plant. Pence noted that others are "upset about not starting at the same wage as everyone else in the master," but in a statement he said he's "happy and shocked and thankful that we are even in the master. This sounded near impossible a few months ago." [email protected]
  19. Have tried a dealer parts department?
  20. How many miles on it? Powertrain is 5yr/100,000 miles.
  21. What model year are you / was he talking about? GM has been changing which transmission usage since this thread was started. I don't recall what year they last made a change -- perhaps when the refresh trucks came mid 2022. For sure '23 and newer - 6 speed is gone - 8 speed is only used with the 2.7T - 10 speed is used on all 5.3, 6.2 and 3.0 engines Neither transmission has a dipstick. 6, 8, and 10 speed each call for a different transmission oil.
  22. I bet it's not a 2019 (or earlier) model and yes. crap in front of the windshield camera will make it kick out. I'm not sure if there is a way to obstruct the lidar..? Adaptive cruise and HUD are on my list of favorite options.
  23. I guess it's magic that keeps the vehicles on many dealer lots clean?
