all of your old remotes will need to be reprogrammed in at the same time as the new ones. read the manual on how to program remotes, each time a new remote is to be learned it clears all remotes and you must relearn all of them.

You essentially just get new fobs, but the accessory kit that GM sell comes with both fobs and the special code that becomes associated with your truck allowing this feature to be turned on permanently and not turned off if the body control module is reflashed. p/n 17801236 from GMpartsdirect.com currently is 128.31 and you will pay less than an hundred buck for the dealer to program it. Call the dealer with that p/n and see if they can beat/match the price.

Dam, there not $128.31 anymore!!!

Nope around $230 now, and you can only use this kit if you have RPO code AP8, if you have AU3 you need a different kit.

Not if the technician selects next available slot in the procedure when programming new FOBs.

I do have the AP8 code. Looks like it would be close to $300 to get it working.

Still cheaper than having a remote car starter installed and you never know what kind of hay wire job they're going to do. Depends how desperate you are to have a warm vehicle when you slip in.

Dealer told me around $432!!! I assume that's with ordering the kit I need.

If I buy the kit for $211 that's the cheapest I can find it. They will charge me $157 to reprogram it all, but won't warranty anything. So for $60 more for the kit from them I'd get a warranty on the install.

I have AP3 rpo code but the remote will open the rear glass, not start the truck(2007 Suburban 1500 4wd). Any suggestions on what to look for? Have new ECM and BCM. All code issues have been corrected and cleared. Any and all help is appreciated.

I feel like you should have made a new post for this. Lol.

 

The liftgate will open, just the glass will not pop? Is this correct?

    • I do have the 8 speed.  Interestingly enough, after driving my truck for the past 2 days now, I have not had the clunking issue at all!  I am beginning to think it may have been suspension/leaf spring related, and somehow when the shop put my truck on the lift to do their initial inspection, it relieved some built up tension/pressure that was causing my problem.  I swear it felt I was a bull rider on a bucking bull the way the truck would almost rock back and forth slightly before the big thud/clunk when coming to a stop.  I am hoping I got lucky here and it's gone for good.
    • Bring it to discount tire. They do free rotations even if you didn’t buy your tires there. I didn’t believe it until I tried and they did. You can tip the employee if you would like 
    • Best part of this video is how it resets expectations. Wonderfully done piece. It also made clear a few points I've made from day one. Detergent oils DO NOT KEEP A MOTOR CLEAN at the recommended or longer change intervals. They just get dirty slower than a non-detergent oil and there isn't spits difference between them on this point if they carry the DEXOS license. Great thing about the license that gets missed is it assures CONFORMITY even it that means a low bar.    One thing he did not talk about that I paused on an magnified was the condition of the oil ring separator. Besides a stuck ring a plugged separator and land drain back is huge when it comes control. We see in short order improvement in control IF that is the problem.    Another item I took exception to and he did not make plain was the condition of the timing chest and under valve cover having something to do with indicating piston cleanliness. Schaeffer's Oil makes that same omission in their million mile Ford video. I'm guessing he has never torn down a Red Line HP, AMSOIL SS motor that has been on that diet from the get. What he showed in the video was a good deal of varnish. Something totally absent in Peppers 165K cover off look. I smiled because he did his at the same milage.    He also makes the mistake of assuming oil temperatures in the pan are the temperature all over the motor even though he makes note of the piston being the hottest part of the engine. that baffled me a bit.    I can tell you from personal experience and witnessing teardowns of family motors that even oils of the 1960's would keep them squeaky clean when OCI's were 1500 to 2000 miles without exception. At 3K and above you get what he experienced and the longer you leave it the quicker to gets to the junkyard.    I think his is missing a opportunity not tearing it down again when he's done killing it. Time would be his only cost. 
    • Very often the part number on the trim part is just for the vendor order/assembly plant and will not show up in the parts system.  They won't make a bunch of extra parts that were not ordered. Keep in mind, lots of these parts were made to be "just in time" parts meaning they were dedicated to a vehicles ordered and sequenced for assembly.       Also, trim parts will often say, paint to match.
