Yes, several times. Either the radio has no sound, or does not work at all, some times the parking assist does not work, or something else. After several trips to the service department, where everything worked fine, I waited until the radio did not work, and drove strait to the shop without shutting the truck off. Everything in the Tahoe communicates over a serial CAN buss. Occasionally, the buss fails to talk to different modules. Re-starting the vehicle sends a new serial signal to all modules. In my case I has set 20+ trouble codes and GM is going to change the Body Control Module. Good luck. George

Maybe not

I was seriously considering trading my Range Rover for an '07 LTZ because, well I am tired of utilizing the outstanding warranty coverage.
After reading these posts, recognizing the fact that Chevy will not provide loaners, pick up or drop off my jalopy at my office or wash it when they are done working on it, I think I will stick with the Brits!
Thanks for posting your problems!!!

As a design engineer for the audio amplifiers in the Tahoe I fully understand the problem you are experiencing. GM has their hands full trying to coordinate all of their supplier's equipment that uses the CAN bus. It can be a mess at times during the design process, and some of the bus problems can occasionally make their way into the production vehicle. I remember an instance where several of our engineers were sent into the field and spent a week just cranking the engines in the problem cars of the GM executives in an attempt to recreate the bus collision.

Thanks for the reply, I was contemplating just pulling the light out myself and throwing some foam insulation in there, but I guess I will just let the dealer do it.

Thanks for the link. I'm currently scoping out every SUV I see with shades installed to decide what I want to install. I'll probably get arrested or shot at here in Texas, if I'm not careful!

Brushed metal Z71 interior on a LT3

I'm going to order my LT3 in a few months and I was wondering if it is possible to special order the Z71 brushed metal appearance on the instrument panel, center stack, steering wheel and door panels with the LT3 package? I don't want any other part of the Z71 package, I just want to get something instead of the wood panel interior. If so does anyone have the code for this brush metal option? Any idea of price?

I may be saying this a bit too soon; but, FYI, I traded my 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser for the 07 Yukon Denali. So far I have just over 1000 miles on it with zero problem. I am loving it for the power and the improvements GM had made over the previous models. The 6.2L engine not only has more More power, it also gives me more MPG than my EX-Land Cruiser and it uses regular gas. How can I not enjoying it... Hope you will join the Yukon/Tahoe family soon.

I would trade you if you wanted too I got a brushed metal and wanted to switch for wood. These are pretty easy to put in and take out

I ordered my LT3 about 3 weeks ago and wanted the two-tone leather seats from the Z71 package. The salesman (who is a friend) tried to get them but GM wouldn't budge. I'd say get the brushed metal appliques in the aftermarket world. You getting a 4x4?

Is this the re-programming people have been talking about? Seems it's only in V4 mode coasting with no gas applied at all. Is there a fix for it? Otherwise been fine.
