    Does anyone know if changing tire size will have any negative impact?

    None. The new tire will be a hair (10mm) wider, and a 1/2" taller. Perfectly within the vehicle's tolerance as far as wheel well and factory specs. Remember that your speedometer is tuned to your current 265/60/17, so you may notice a slight difference in speed (speedometer will read slower than...

    Bad TPS ??

    I'm assuming your truck is a 07+ model. Ebay has them listed for one sensor at 24.95. There are some that are a bit higher 40 - 50, so whatever you feel comfortable with. Call around to some tire shops for pricing on installation. The shop near me only charges 50 bucks/tire to remove/balance. So...

    Dealer scamming me about Nav?

    Glad to hear that was the root of evil. As I stated in your other post, try seeing where your nav volume is set at on your touchscreen settings. You may just only need to turn up the volume.

    Bad TPS ??

    Attempt the relearn procedure first. If the vehicle still doesn't recgonize the sensor then most likely it is defective. Cause can range from debris/salt/rain causing corrossion on the device. Pretty inexpensive replacement.

    How to get volume back in Nav and Onstar voice after Non-Bose Nav install

    Is the nav volume up all the way? Start there and see if that fixes the problem. You can access it through the touchscreen settings.

    LT vs LT1

    I thought 07 + models only are LS, LT, and LTZ? But LT1 would have slightly more options than an LT.

    engine oil consumption excessive 2007 5.3 flex

    had the same problem in my 07. Did some reading on other forums, which people identified to the AFM/DOD (active fuel management). Don't know the specifics on why it caused oil consumption, but I can tell you after disabling the AFM my motor doesn't burn oil. I purchased a predator 3 tuner to...

    Removing the door bumpers

    Well if you don't like it, you can always put them back on with 3M double sided tape.

    Rear door locks wont engage(lock) when using the keyless receiver.

    Don't know if it will help, but you could try the relearn procedure within your information center.

    1999 Tahoe 4X4 Recommended Maintenance

    I'd say replace the shocks if the ride is bumpy or you see signs of fluid leakage. Grease bearings if applicable, some are sealed. Replace radiator hoses if they are starting to dryrot. Inspect coolant for rusty color, if present, flush and replace thermostat. Keep transmission...

    I guess I don't really understand your question. What are you trying to do, and what vehicle?

    Dealer scamming me about Nav?

    boy I don't know. Kinda getting a little over my head. I would want to think so in theory. What did the dealer say? I would have thought they would need to flash your BCU to accept the head unit.
