wanted to find out what are you avalanche owners are paying to have your front windows tinted. I am within the next few weeks planning to have my front windows tinted to match the rear window tint.  :)

I have an appointment to have my windows tinted tomorrow morning. It costs 25 per window. So $50 bucks for the driver and passenger windows. I am also going to get a 6 inch stripe across the front window. $15 for the stripe. The side windows cannot be tinted as dark as the back windows due to the laws in Tennessee. I am going to have 35% tint put on the driver and passenger windows. Apparantly you can have anything you want on the front window as long as it doesn`t go below the white lines on the front window, which is about 6 inches down. I am going to have 5% put up there for a sunvisor.

Check with you local tint shop and see what the laws are in your state.

 

Hope this helps.

Check mine out.   I had the tint shop match mine to the back.  They are illegal ( the shop made me pay cash) but They are not as dark as limo tint.  I haven't had any problems with the police.  It is so hot here in the summer ,  everyone does it.  It helped my A/C tremendously!!  I like the reduction in glare also. They cost $75 for both front windows, which was high, but this guy does work.  Check out my pics at:

I would asume the factory tint on the AV is the same as the silverado

 

the guy put on 15% on the side windows (paid $75 cash no recipt) I think 20% would have been a better match but it looks nice and is visualy inpentrible eaven in the full sun

 

it realy does keep the cab cooler   :)

 

 

the factory stuf is a bit browner than the aftermarket wile shopping u might want to look for some slightly more amber tint instead of the regular blue/black u cannot tell from the outside but from the inside there is a slight tone diffrence

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      By CNH-320 · Posted

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
