And I would argue that the 5.3 does better at 91. I had a rough idle, found another post about using a bottle of techron and a tank of 91 and the result was a nice smooth idle. I almost feel as if Chevy says "it will work on 87 just fine" knowing that most people won't complain. All I know is that after the bottle of techron and 91 it idled smooth as silk.

I'm the opposite. I love it. I've been with German SUVs the last decade (VW Touareg, Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne) and we still have the 2012 Touareg which is a terrific highway vehicle and my wife and I will still take the Burb on road trips even if it's just the two of us. Quiet, smooth, does corners with ease considering its size.

This is my '16 that the seats weren't heating well. I twisted it slightly and adjusted the cables to be laying down on one side of the sensor and took it for a drive and it definitely makes a difference. After about 15 minutes they felt warmer. Agree with you that nothing is really stopping the cable from adjusting again during normal use.

Yes, pictures would be terrific! Thanks!

Very interesting! I have noticed that the voltage meter will sometimes show 14 volts and other times closer to 12. I've never associated the heated seats to the voltage meter indicated. Something to watch as I drive around. I have noticed that in slightly warmer temps the seats seem to feel warmer and until now have attributed that to reduced delta but now wonder if the battery is weaker because of colder overnight temps and short trips. I will say that I have notice the seats feel warmer after 30 minutes of driving and that could be consistent with your theory of the battery being recharged and the load shed being deactivated, thereby giving the extra 20%.

My 2016 LTZ is the same. Seats never feel warm. Wife says the passenger seat is the same way. I'll say something at the next service and see what they say.

Not really. I typically load 3-4 movies onto an SD card knowing what they are in my head. You can use the track forward buttons below the screen to choose the next and then they loop. So, if I have 4 movies I know moving to the next will be a certain movie, pressing again will go to the next movie, etc. It's not perfect but it works.

Yes! Every vehicle I had thus far with satellite radio has had a Sirius tuner. This is the first vehicle with an XM. I know they are the same company but from what I understand they still operate separate satellites and the tuners connect to whatever tuner is in the vehicle. The Sirius tuners I had in 8 other vehicles were far more reliable in terms of connection and sounded a bit less compressed.

I've been using mostly top tier 87 in my 2016 Suburban but the one thing that has bothered me is the idle being rough. It's not concerning but I am just accustom to perfectly smooth idling vehicles and this is not one of them. I filled with a tank of ethanol free 87 and immediately noticed a smoother idle. I was considering trying a tank of premium ethanol free to see if that makes any difference.

I didn't realize this but just tried it out and it works. Thanks! Only limitation I see is that you must play different sources. Second row screen was SD card, third row I had to change to Bluray to get it to work. I don't see a way to watch two different videos from a single SD card.

I have a huge iTunes library with a lot of kids movies (complete with DRM making it a pain to just move files). I bought Noteburner M4V Converter Plus for $45 and problem solved. Select the movie or show in your library you want converted and it makes a lossless copy in about 20 minutes. Drag to SD card, put in SD card slot in 2nd row and the videos fire right up. Using the remote control you can navigate between movies. Only hiccup I ran into is the 2GB max files size on FAT32 (a lot of the HD moves are 4 gb), so I reformatted the SD card using NTFS, moved the movies over and it worked just fine in my Suburban. http://www.noteburner.com
