My main concern is the type of leather they use in the rear seats in seating area. The SLT model had the rear seat made out of vinyl rather than real leather. This is pretty sad since my 2004 GMT800 Yukon had real leather in the backseats.

Now, since I'm planning on the 2017 Yukon Denali, I'm wondering whither the rear seats upholstery are made of real leather or not?

GM no longer makes leather seats for the truck lines. You get vinyl seats with leather like seating surfaces up front. Some of the cheapest material in car manufacturing produced today. Just buy the truck and replace the seats with aftermarket if you want real leather.

From what I have read on it is a man made material with leather ''dust'' particles mixed into it and bonded to the vinyl. If you thinking it is true leather hide it is not . Not even close for that matter.

Recently the GM leather seats have been all leather on the front side of the front seats and then the bonded leather on the sides and rear. The rear seats are fully bonded leather, doesn't matter if it is a SLT or a Denali/High Country.

 

Makes me really appreciate the full Nappa leather package in our Audi.

I have a 2015 GMC Canyon truck that has a burned out motor in the passenger seat. Is there a cross reference with other vechicle seats that I can use the motor from? The dealer wants to charge me for a whole new seat, which is really dumb.

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
