Just wondering if anyone has installed the HEATED and COOLED cupholders from a Cadillac Escalade in your truck.

 

If you have.... how hard was it and what kind of wiring did you have to do?

OK..... looks like nobody has done this mod yet. The heated and cooled cupholders.

 

I will see what I can find out about it and report back.

 

Seems to me, it would be pretty neat to keep your coffee WARMER longer or your beverage of choice COOLER longer.

 

Plus there wold be more buttons to push. :D:crackup::crackup:

Thanks, Jim. I'd be interested. These are the kinds of little creature comforts I love in a vehicle. Yeah, yeah - ITS A TRUCK!!! But still, its MY truck and I like a tricked interior.

Since you have a 2008 Suburban and the Escalade is built on the same chassis.... :D that might be an easy conversion for you. :crackup:

 

In the next few days, I will try to stop by the Caddy dealer and look at one with the heated / cooled cupholders. Maybe you can do the same and compare the center consoles.

Definitely interested also.

 

I looked at a caddy last night at the dealer, and the model on the floor did not have that option (it was too cold in WI to look at the cars on the lot).

 

I'll keep my eyes open and ask around.

Cupholders that are only heated and cooled? Heck, I what ones with built-in ice dispenser, and an 8 speed blender!

Pete,

 

Not a bad idea. With ice cubes and a blender, you could make Margaritas on the go. :D

 

Hmmm ... could build a nice little blender holder out of wood that matches the wood trim in the truck. Mount it on the driveshaft hump between the front and back seats. Use a little inverter and wire it into the lighter socket.

 

That takes care of the blender.... but .... darn it, still no ice maker. :D:D

 

Gonna have to give this more thought.

MAN! And all I was thinking about was keeping the coffee hot and the Slurpees brain-freeze-cold! You've got an even BETTER idea!! :D

Found out a little more info.

 

The heated and cooled cup holders were only available on the 2004 to 2006 models. The 2007 and 2008 models don't have them. They are supposed to be back on the 2009 models.

 

When it warms up some... may go check some scrap yards and try to find some.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
