On my Avalanche when I had a vibration at a specific speed (103km/h), I used a vibration recorder app on my phone to get the frequency of the vibration that shot up in amplitude at that speed. From there, converted the Hz to RPM and then did some math to see what RPM my tires, driveshaft, etc...

I've experienced the same this winter, and it's very common for hybrids to run the engine more when the temperature drops. If it's just above freezing, it still runs on electric fairly frequently, but below freezing it's much more intermittent, and if it gets down to about -10C, it basically...

Yes. As posted above, the timing is the trick. But mine works every time when I get the rhythm right. Press lock, watch for single flash of lights, press lock again, watch for single flash of lights, then press and hold lock until you see several flashes.

Mine works when I just look out the window at my truck and do it, but the issue I have is that you have to have the timing/rhythm of the button pushes JUST RIGHT. *click* *click* *HOLD* doesn't work for me. It's like *click* pause and wait for single flash on lights *click* pause and wait for...

Mine leans against the cab when I open it, but has the support rods that can be connected which pull it off the cab if I need to drive anywhere with it opened up so it's not rubbing against the cab or vibrating.

I dunno - I'm really hoping nothing in my truck poops :cwl:

The stock wheels and tires look silly with that lift, IMO.

Been a pretty icy winter around here so far, so I ended up putting full winter tires on - Continental Ice contact XTRM. It could use a bit of weight in the back, but manageable without.

Together they will still be smaller than Toyota (in terms of global sales). The alternative is Nissan disappearing. I don't think the government will stand in the way of this.

Yeah, as much as they're calling it a "merger", this is a hostile takeover to save Nissan from completely dying. I am curious how they restructure to take on Nio, BYD, etc. I don't think their approach will be to focus on ICE; I think it's an attempt to pool resources to develop more competitive...

No issues here even at -20C (-4F). However, it sounds like it might be a bigger issue in freeze/thaw transitions with precipitation mixed in.

Owner's manual has information about how to choose a load rating. Basically if the load rating of the tire divided by 1.10 is still greater than 50% of the gross axle weight rating, you're good to go. From what I've seen, even the 4-ply tires still have margin, so even if you're towing and have...

Only about 6lbs difference between those two tires, so it won't make a huge difference in performance, but it could negatively impact ride quality to go to the 10-ply. As above, if you're not doing much off-roading, it's probably not worth it to get the 10-ply.

Also in Alberta. Also have the iForceMAX TRD OR in white. Also with the hard tonneau cover haha. Good taste :LOL: (y)

Oooh those wheel well liners look nice. Sucks they didn't fit your truck!

Wait, you got an OEM bed mat? I called my dealer recently and they said you can't order them yet because the factory burned down or something. Cool ammo box!

I just picked mine up last weekend and the VIN is after the range specified in the TSB, so hopefully that means they won't have to halt production and they've already resolved it at the factory level. The alternative is they will have to increase the scope of the TSB again to include newer trucks.

I think you can just disable the proximity sensors in the MID. Not sure if it turns back on when you restart the vehicle though.

TRD OR Premium iForce Max. Picked it up on Saturday - 540 days after putting a deposit on it. Finally!

Just got the call today that my hybrid OR has arrived :sunglasses: I've had a deposit down since mid-May 2023 lol
