    Rear Defrost Tab and ESP

    My dealer repaired mine 2 times then stated I need to buy new glass. Dealer said not covered under warranty. I called ESP and they said it was covered. The dealer will need to replace the rear defroster not the "rear glass" and it will be covered under warranty.

    Conflicted

    I have had the powertrain fault error at least 4 times. No fix at my dealer either. I had reduced power but was still able to drive. I was able to stop and turn off the vehicle to turn off the code.

    What fuel do you use?

    I usually use 87 but do get better mileage with 93. So I try to use 93 when on road trips.

    Poor gas milage

    Yeah my speedo is off by 5mph so I Know that effects the milage a little also. 5 star was suppose to adjust the speedo but they can't get it right after multiple calls.... Of course, the tires effect the mph. I had 33's on my 07 Escalade with the 6.2 and had about the same mpg. I do add...

    Poor gas milage

    Yes that is my overall average. Thanks of the feedback. I would like to run premium gas but it's so expensive right now. Five Star told me the 3.5 really does better with premium even without a tune. I'm sure that would add to the mpg.

    Poor gas milage

    Good day! My average mpg is around 13-14mpg. I have the Five Star tune for daily/tow 87 Octane and a cat back exhaust. I know I have bigger tires but seems like a lot of people on the forum are getting at least 18mpg. Should I "try" to contact Five Star about this? Is there anyone else...

    Roof rock cross members

    IMO, I would suggest aftermarket. You are very limited with the OEM cross bars. I went with INNO XS150 with the aero bars.
