  1. We have a 2020 Acadia with about 50k miles on it. It started showing codes randomly. I read them with my reader and saw stuff like, Steering assist dimished , Low coolant temp. and a couple others. I saw similar problems in an Acadia forum. People were throwing parts at the problem with limited success. Anyway, to me, the common thread seemed like low voltage. I tested my battery and it showed normal range. I put a charger on the battery over night. The next day all of the codes went away. So I replaced the battery and the problem is solved. Low voltage in these new vehicles can do strange things. Moral of the story. Don't overlook the battery.
  2. Try warming it up. Park it in the sun or put it in a very warm garage? Just a thought.
  3. I have a 2021 Sierra, 3.0. w/47,195 miles. We were on vacationand and while launching our boat, the engine light came on and the fans started up wide open. I shut it off as soon as possible and let it cool off. I carry a reader with me and got the code P1098. I couldn't do anything about it so I cleared it. At the end of the week I drove it home 3 1/2 hours and no problems. Yesterday I drove it about 8 miles and it came on again. This time it said "Engine Power Reduced" I made an appointment at the dealer today and can't it get in until Friday. Drop it off and wait for a phone call.
  4. I had a qualified locksmith cut a key for my 21 GMC and program the remote. He charged me $100.00 They can come to your house. Make sure that the one that you call has the right equipment.
  5. We have a 20 Acadia. I know different vehicle, but same year. I'm not sure if you are talking about the auto headlight dimming? If you turn on the fog lamps it turns off the auto dim feature. Also if you are traveling slower than 40 mph the lights stay on dim. Not sure if this helps?
  6. Take it back to the dealer that replaced the switch. They must have removed the tailgate and reinstalled it wrong. There is a spring in the hinge, I believe
  7. If you take another battery and hook it to the truck with jumper cables, so the power is always there, then there shouldn't be any interuption in the system?? Then you can go ahead and change the battery.
  8. When I turn on the fan symbol to cool the seats. I don't get any kind of a fan noise. The seats just get cold. It takes a few minutes to cool them down but they get very cold. I have also noticed that the wireless phone charger in the center console gets very cold too. I think that the AC needs to be on for the seats to cool? The only thing that you might want to check out is the ambiant air senser. If its not pluged in then the computer isn't telling the heater to do what you are asking it for.
  9. I have a 2021 GMC Sierra AT4 with a 3.0 Duramax. Bought it with 6,000 miles and now have about 43,000 on it. We love it. It rides nice, gets great fuel mileage and has plenty of power to pull/haul whatever I need it for. It has 20" wheels with Bridgstone Dueller A/T tires. Great tires. Recently had recalls for transmition shift module programming. The dealer took care of it. 1/2 hr. each time. The one down side is, that I hate the mirrors. They are too small and DS has the convex in the top left corner. Hate that. PS mirror has " Objects appear closer " mirror. Hate that. Can,t back up a trailer and judge distance. I have looked into changing them with a OEM tow mirror but because I don't have the correct option in the BCM the dealer says that it can't be done.
  10. My new Harley did the exact same thing. I couldn't figure out why my dealer told me to track my mileage on a tank of gas. I was on my way to work one morning and my guage wen't from 3/8 to E like a rock. So after that I always reset my trip and didn't worry about the gauge. Just Enjoy The Ride!!
  11. Not 100K but very interesting
  12. Thanks for the link. I watched it all. Engine failure do to a lack of oil. Great vidio. I have a 2021 LM2 diesel. I am trying to learn as much as I can about it. Thanks again.
  13. I had a 2017 Colorado that developed shutter shift at 56,000 miles. I flushed the Trans. and replaced the fluid with a Mobil 1 Synthetic trans, fluid. They called it the blue fluid, but it was just because it had a blue lable on the box. Problem was gone the day that I picked it up and it never came back.
