I had something similar happen. Occasionally I'd lose sound, then would come back. I replaced my battery, and it hasn't happened since.

One day last month, my wife pulled into the garage from running some errands in her 2016 Tahoe, and mentioned that the AC wasn't cooling. I shined a light through the grill, and could see the oil spot on the condenser where they all fail. The local Chevrolet dealer estimated that it would cost between $1500-1600 for the repair, and the GMC dealer wouldn't give me an estimate. The Tahoe had the extended coverage on the condenser, but it expired in July. I called GM and they said I'd have to take it to a dealer to have it diagnosed before they could talk about giving me some help on the repair. I decided to have an independent shop I trust do the repair, and it cost me $1013. It would have been nice to know beforehand what GM would have done for me on the repair, but I decided to go the independent shop route to avoid what might have turned into a prolonged ordeal. I have the same condenser on my 2015 Sierra, and if (when) it fails, I think I'm going to attempt to replace it myself. I'm fairly comfortable with replacing the condenser, but not so much with charging the system. I've watched quite a few videos, but still have a a few questions. But I'm also not comfortable paying another grand for the repair, so it might be time to learn.

I've got a 2015 Sierra 5.3, and a 2016 Tahoe 5.3, and I saw the same thing on both when I replaced the air filters. If you find out what's causing it, please let me know.

Chris, did the CHP give you any indication of how they found the person that caused the wreck? I'm impressed that they caught this individual, but am curious how they did it. I thought he/she was probably long gone and would never be found.

Ugh, sorry to hear you're still having issues....you and your family have been through a lot with this ordeal.

Congratulations Chris, that's a great looking truck! Have you recovered well from the ankle injury?

Jesse, now I'm depending on that rain this weekend. Problem for me is, you probably have a better chance for rain in the Houston area, as I'm west of Austin in the hill country. But the weather man is forecasting a "chance" of rain for my area. The town I live in gets it's water supply from the river that runs through it, and in 2011 the flow of the river almost stopped because there was no rain for close to four months. So I'm thinking about washing my truck this afternoon....

If you washing your truck causes it to rain here in Texas (hopefully where I live), you will have my sincere gratitude!

Jason, who did the installation?

I just installed a Napa Gold 100255 on my 2015 Sierra 5.3, which is the same filter as the Wix 10255. It took some time to convince the guy at my local Napa that the 10255 had replaced the 57045 for applications that called for a 22 psi bypass valve setting. I've read that Fram is planning on updating the Ultra 10575 to a 22 psi bypass valve to satisfy the GM specification.

If you had said someone parked inches from your truck in a parking lot, I probably wouldn't have believed you without that photo. I'm just speechless......

A friend with a 2016 Tahoe just received notice from GM that they are extending the warranty on his Tahoe's condenser to five years or 60,000 miles, whichever occurs first. He said the notice included the 2016 Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon, Yukon XL, and Escalade. (Escalade warranty was extended to six years or 72,000 miles) It did not mention 2016 trucks. Anyone with a truck receive a warranty extension like this from GM?

Steve, mine didn't come in a carton....both times shipped in a sealed plastic bag with AC Delco part stickers on them.

After I read your suggestion, I was able to talk my wife out of one of her old cutting sheets....I'm sure she just used that as a reason to get a new one.

That's what I did, and it works great.
