  GM Customer Service, I am new to these forms...my first post. Good to see you folks are monitoring these posts and providing responses.

Oil change alert hit 15% life remaining this week and the change oil enunciator indicated it was time to take the vehicle in for oil/filter change. This AM (cold northern Virginia) ... Read More

  According to #01-06-01-011F: Information on Engine Oil Consumption Guidelines (Jan13,2009) - the GM accepted rate of oil consumption for engines in cars and trucks (less than 8500 LB GVW) is one quart per 2000 miles. There are exeptions for non-agressive driving, towing, high RPMs, maintenance.... 2 quarts in 600-700 miles, I thought, would be a no-brainer qualification for a drastic fix for my suburban. Massive if you think about it. If ... Read More

  If it makes you feel better, I have a GM Certified 2008 Suburban LTZ that has the same problem at 34K miles. Brought it in to the dealer due to a rough idle, only to find out that it had oil in the #1 cylinder that foulded the plug. Today, the oil consumption test shows 2 quarts lost in 600 miles and is back to a rough idle. Dealer says they ... Read More

  Written by: styxz on Mar 4, 2010 3:04:49 PM

  We have an '07 Yukon XL that is using 2-3 quarts of oil every 3K miles. Our local service tech states 1 quart per 1500 miles is normal. I have friends with similar (2007-2008), not exact, vehicles that don't use any oil and put more miles on than us. We live on the great plains of ND (i.e. easy driving), mainly carting kids around town and driving to work (my wife's ... Read More

  Hello Rick. GMAC's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 GMC Yukon XL Denali with 15,000 miles per year are 7.2% and 60%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 7.2% and 59%. The 48 month numbers are 7.2% and 52%. If you were to lease with only 12,000 miles per year, these residual values would be 3% higher. ... Read More
