OK, my Advancetrak Light went off this morning... it would not let me turn it off... It seems a little bit suspicious to me that it came on at 40,002. Is this one of those hard coded things to get you to bring your car in for maintenance?? I just had the brake pads replaced and rotors...

OK, I have an additional question. I have not replaced mine or began to locate it. I have a 2002 LS V8. Where should this filter be located? Also, does anyone have the part information for this. Thanks for the help. Steve

Great, thanks for the info!

I have two problems with my 2002 LS V8. First one, the rubber pad that should be on the brake pedal is missing. Do they make a replacement? Secondly, both of my rear vents are broken. Just the black pieces that slide side to side and adjust to direct the flow of air. Any input on...

I am using nothing below 91 octane, and generally 92 octane. I try to find a BP around here, because they offer the 92 octane. Still, I am averaging only 16 city and 21 highway. I want to get on it once in awhile, but I don't because I know what the outcome with me.... worse mileage. I have...

OK, I seem to be on the lower end of the spectrum too! I have a 2002 LS V8 with 34K. The best I have average is 21 on the highway, and a consistent 16 - 17 average per tank with a 50/50 mix of city/highway driving. I have been very easy on the pedal too! The sticker from the window showed...

Where do I begin..... I am currently on vehicle 20... My first was a 1978 Mercury Bobcat.... the premier Pinto.... It was quite the ride... I used to love picking up tail in a Bobcat! Lets you know you are doing something right. My current vehicles are all 2002's, a Chevy Avalanche Z66...

Awesome. Is there any specific part number or series I should reference when I look into the exhaust system. I know for flowmaster for example, they have a series number... Thanks, Steve

Great, thanks for the info! I think they look great! I have a friend here locally that has a tire shop, so come spring I will be looking. I just put on a new set of Toyo Proxes to last me through the winter. The factory Michelins were used up at 33K....

I just went out and priced my new one out..... It will only set me back $64,495.00!!

How have you noticed the ride changing?? I put 20's on my Avalanche, and I lost a lot of the comfort feel, but did gain in handling and traction. I have noticed that the tires catch a lot of the grooves in the road. I am running Hankook Ventus 285/50/20.

mbinici, Welcome!! To help you out, I am providing a link to another forum I frequent for my Avalanche. Since the Av and Escalade's are very similiar and there are several people on there that have gone insane modding and upgrading there systems, I think you will be able to find some...

Great info to have... that is what I was needing to know. I have a buddy who has a tire shop, so I will have to price some out. Thanks, Steve

Mine is Cypress Green I believe. I plan to clean it up next week while I am off and I will take some pictures then and post them.
