#3074 of 3260 Rear Camera by quickdropmarc Mar 01, 2006 (4:05 pm)
OK, I see the 2007 Denali has a rear camera system. Since I just bought an 06 model last month, I'm not ready to upgrade, but would love to have the rear camera. Is this possible to add to my 06 model? I do have the nav/entertainment package.   ciao, Marc Replies to this message: brjohnson (Mar 06, 2006 8:52 am)

Replying to: quickdropmarc (Mar 01, 2006 4:05 pm) Hi Marc,   We also just recently bought an 06 Denali and were chasing the camera thing as well to make it easier for me when hooking up the boat.   Check out JP Customs...they have a nice selection of cameras and the interface that switches your nav screen to the camera image when in reverse.   http://www.jpcustoms.com/store/customer/home.php
#3076 of 3260 Engine Noise by petzl7000 Mar 14, 2006 (9:06 am)
Hi im new too this forum i just purchased a 2006 gmc Yukon. I love it i have only one problem. Inbetweek 45 and 50 MPH i get this weird noise. it almost sounds like a grinding noise for a few seconds. then it goes away. it only happens it you are on the throttle a little bit. at about 1200 rpm. i only have about 1200 miles on the truck. im not sure if this is normal or not. but when i put the truck in 3rd gear i do not seem to hear the nose. anyone that could help or have any ideas would be great! thanx mark Replies to this message: obyone (Mar 14, 2006 11:49 pm)

Replying to: petzl7000 (Mar 14, 2006 9:06 am) Sounds like the engine is lugging which is common for the 4 speed 4L-65e. To attain an increase in gas mileage the spread between 3rd and 4th gear leaves something missing...and will cause the engine to lug between 39-48 mph. Which explains why you don't hear it while locked into 3rd.

Is this something i should worry about or it is just something that is normal. the noise can get really annoying i usually just turn up the radio so i can't hear it! i was going to take it back to the dealer but if it is normal i won't bother to have them give me a run around. thanx for the speedy reply!   MArk Replies to this message: obyone (Mar 16, 2006 3:55 am)
#3079 of 3260 in dash CD changer - any ideas? by ssbmg Mar 15, 2006 (9:56 am)
I have a 2001 Denali with an aftermarket radio that makes the factory CD changer useless. Does anyone have any suggestions with regards to replacing it with some other kind of gadget or where I could buy a pocket that is made for that space. Along those lines, has anyone come up with anything creative the the space where the Onstar buttons are placed? I think it's absolutely useless and would love to pull it out and replace it with something new - preferably some kind of new toy. Thanks.

Replying to: petzl7000 (Mar 15, 2006 7:13 am) Oops I meant 4L-60e not the 4L-65e. There isn't much that the dealer can do except flash with an updated program. What would probably happen is that it would downshift to third a bit faster so as to not lug as long.

Replying to: ssbmg (Mar 15, 2006 9:56 am) Well I can't really offer much, given the model year of your Denali; I'm replying 'cuz I had a similar dilemma with the factory slave changer in my '04 DXL (has factory navigation). Now, there wasn't really anything wrong with the factory changer...I wanted to hook up a rear camera and really didn't want to go with the adapter that allows you to send a video image to the nav screen. So...I chose to swap out the factory changer w/ a Pioneer touchscreen DVD/MP3 head unit; by doing this I essentially killed two birds with one stone--I can send the rear camera video to the Pioneer, and since it can play MP3 tracks, I can burn a ton of MP3s to one CD. One single MP3 CD can hold more music than 6 standard audio CDs--roughly 8 hours worth (or more, depending on bitrate), so I did not lose anything as far as the capability to listen to lots of music tracks w/o frequent disc-swapping.   I believe on your truck the Onstar buttons are located right below the air vent that is to the right of the radio, correct? If so, then you could hook up a small color LCD screen in that location so that you can use it for a rear camera video feed (or some other video of your choosing)...

Replying to: tdoh (Mar 17, 2006 1:44 pm) Thanks for the suggestion. I have a DVD/LCD installed in the space where the factory stereo used to be and I put a small navigation unit in the top cover of the center compartment that flips up (pretty cool actually - I cut out a hole to make it a pretty factory looking flush mount. I'll post a picture if I can figure out how to do it). I think I will shop for a small screen to replace the Onstar controls. Another screen can't hurt and that size would be pretty inexpensive.   My main concern is the factory CD changer that is now useless. It was suggested that I mount a center channel speaker there like in home surround systems but I'd really rather put some kind of storage pocket. Another idea is some gauges that I've seen in magazines. I think it's 3 circular gauges that would fit perfectly in that space. If I did that I'd have to hook them up to something...nitrous maybe?   Any ideas would be welcome.
#3083 of 3260 Changing radiator fluid by lou747jeeps Mar 20, 2006 (4:58 am)
I have a 2004 Yukon XL. I want to change my radiator fluid. I did not find a redatior cap on top of my radiator. I also did not find a drain plug at the bottom of my radiator. Does anyone have any experience with changing radiator fluid on a Yukon XL? I can drop my lower hose to drain, and I can try to refill through the reservoir, but I wanted to get your advice first.                                            Thanks.
