    stabilatrac or ABS?

    I did a search and couldn't find anything similar, so... '08 Envoy Denali with 150k miles. Traction control system comes on (light on dash, limited throttle) only when cold. Lasts only a few seconds, then returns to normal operation. Doesn't happen any other time. This system seems to...

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

    I have a '08 Envoy, and will be replacing the tires in a few weeks. (...ok I'm prepared for the onslaught...) I find the TPMS a bit annoying (almost as much as 'torque management'...almost:Banghead:). Has anyone found a way to turn it off? That way I can have 2-dollar tire valves installed...

    Rear vent glass shot out.

    Sorry, was away for awhile. Thanks for the replies. I have $500 deductible also. I have it taped up from the inside, it seems to be holding in so far. Have to wait til I get the money (and it gets a little warmer). I'm going to check some salvage yards, who knows...I may get lucky. I will...

    Need service manuals? Get them here!

    Mooseman, I have an '08 Envoy Denali, and am looking for the service manual. I clicked on the link on the first page for '08 TB service manauls' figuring the only difference is sheet metal. However, what I got was the owners manual. Am I doing something wrong? thanks

    Rear vent glass shot out.

    This past weekend the LR vent glass of my '08 Envoy Denali was shattered by some idiot with a BB gun, along with the rear window glass of my '03 Yukon XL. Since I don't yet have a manual for it (Helm is a little expensive), has anyone out there ever replaced one? Also is the reason they cost...

    throttle (might be an) issue

    Blckshdw..thanks for the input. That makes the mod even more tempting. I don't think I can get used to it. The wife says she doesn't mind it, but I know she will like it once it's done. After all, she's a gearhead too. ...the term "stocker" has a pretty broad definition...right? :yes:

    throttle (might be an) issue

    Ok, so after some googling, I understand what TM is and why it's there. That leaves the question: In normal driving, what would it do the longevity of the trans if it were removed? I find it pretty annoying. My Envoy (and my Yukon) is a stocker and always will be a stocker. My toy is an '89...

    throttle (might be an) issue

    I read another thread about torque managenment, just hoped it was something else. I've only had a week, so hopefully I will get used to it. However, I may think about some PCM tuning... thanks for the input.

    throttle (might be an) issue

    I'm a newbie to this forum, and this is my first post. I just bought a '08 Envoy Denali, 5.3L V8, with 94k miles. I chose this because it has the same drivetrain as our '03 Yukon XL. However, this has an annoying lag in the throttle. I press on the pedal, maybe 5% down before it starts...
