Replying to: twernst10 (Sep 24, 2006 6:04 am)  that they were so willing to fix the problem. I described how you all have raved about the bypass and they were very happy to hear about the satisfied customers and good "press" in the Edmunds forum. Only hitch they sent it UPS next day air w/ signature required; I have my sister-in-law waiting at my house the delivery should be made by 10:30 am EST so I'll let you know if I get it today. If I do I will definitly be installing the new bypass tonight. They even sent a return UPS label prepaid for me to return my deffective unit back to them. Well, as the saying goes if at first you don't succeed try, try again. On a side note does anybody have the Auto close rear hatch and notice that it is pretty loud when it latches closed? Almost sounds like it needs a little grease or something. I also noticed this with the front passenger door handle when opening the door from the outside.

I'm still dissapointed with the lack of functionality from the advertised feature of AFM. I called GM and was unable to get a CSR who was even familiar with the engine feature. GM sent me a letter with information on how to submit a claim to the BBB. In short, you fill out a form at: http://www.dr.bbb.org/goauto You then follow up with a packet of information they send you. I really like the truck and would have bought it without this feature...but if they are going to advertise that it works, they should be accountable for it actually working...

Replying to: deovindice (Sep 27, 2006 8:36 am) The AC system REALLY pulls down the mpgs!!! It was nice enough the last trip I made that I did some experimenting with the AC on and the AC off. It goes and holds in V-4 MUCH quicker/easier with the AC off and was good for about 1mpg in and of itself! I switched to running 92 octane in my Tahoe based on feed back on other sites - this brought both the power and milage up. (From what I've read - the computer is quick to pull timing out if ping is noted and slooooooow to bring it back in - thereby limiting potential damage to the engine - but also hurting mpg/performance) - I was going to try 89 - but the station I buy my gas at - there is only a $.05/gallon difference to go from 89 to 92 so I jumped all the way to 92. I am running the tires at 40 PSI instead of 35. Noticed basically no difference in ride - but it does "seem" to coast further/easier, and tightened up the handling a bit. And I am running the Zoomers cat back exhaust which netted an improvement of about 1mpg right out the gate. I have yet to be able to fill up with non-10% ethanol gas - and would assume that I might pick up some additional milage there - but I have to drive out of my way to get to that station - so at this point, I haven't made it a priority to try. For reference - my 'Hoe is a 4x4, LT3 with 4.10 gears and 8900 miles on the clock and runs non-synthetic oil (plan on switching next change)
