Towing 9,000 pounds with 2023 Hummer EV SUT Edition 1
Просмотров 8388 месяцев назад
Trying out the Hummer EV SUT in heavy towing. Technically the 2023 is rated to tow 7,500 lb only. 2024 models are rated higher at 8,500lb, even though they have the same battery and number of motors. When towing such a heavy load, expect about 150 miles of range out of a full charge.

Hummer EV subwoofer upgrade in factory enclosure for 2022+ HEV
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.9 месяцев назад
Quick walk through on how I installed an upgraded subwoofer into the factory enclosure. Ideally, it would need a larger amp to power the new sub, as it's still fairly weak. New sub I used was a Polk DB842SVC. It's an 8" sub, 250 watts RMS.

Is piston 1 on the flywheel side of the engine on the right or left side?
Thank you for this video! I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it myself. I hate having to drill any holes in my $100k Hummer but it's only one for each mud flap through a plastic piece. I feel better now ordering these and doing it myself.
Yes it's very simple, glad I could help
Put new ones in leaking again after 8k miles smh
awesome
Does the light stay on when driving?
No they only go on when the doors are open
What scanner diagnostic tool do you use for your G63?
Damn i wish you had a Go-pro attached to your head so i could see everything youre doing 😩. I need to do this exact same thing but not really good at DIY unless i see a direct step by step video
The big rotors are 380mm?
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for posting this! Do you still have your Hummer? Have you done any other modifications you plan to make a video on?
@@frazie46 yes I still have it, love driving it every day. Not really planning on doing anything else to it, I might add an amp for the subwoofer, that’s about it
A brilliant video , I had the same problem and followed your instructions and it worked perfectly. Thanks
Thank you for this informative video I have a question about the fuel pump module location on 2015 G550 My truck cranks but won’t start. I having error message “Communication with 'Fuel pump' has a malfunction” Or do you have any idea what it might be ?
I’d start by checking the fuses and relays. Then take a look at your wiring by the fuel tank, you may have a broken wire going to the fuel pump. If all that checks out, you’ll have to drop your tank. If you have a scan tool computer that allows you to manually activate the fuel pump, try that. You should hear the fuel pump come on, it’s fairly loud.
@ I check all fuses and relays. All ok. I will check the wires, My scan tool has the active test function but it wasn’t able to communicate with the fuel bump And error message “ Communication with 'Fuel pump' has a malfunction.”
@ you might have a broken wire then. I would look around the fuel tank where the harness is and it goes down the frame
DO you have a link for the lights ?
Do you know oil filter housing bolt torque specs?
No I don’t sorry I just tightened it
I’m thinking I could use this same process with an aftermarket lighting kit
Should be able to use the same wiring, I don't see why not
Rad dude...im about to get one and was looking for this video...great job....ride safe
Glad I could help. Enjoy!
Good job bro!! So our Hummers are high voltage already and we can find a high voltage amplifier. The conversions are easy and we don’t lose efficiency at all! I’m on the lookout for these amplifiers and somebody that can install them so we can avoid the 12 V system altogether.
Any luck? I like this idea.
Hey I'm having the hardest time pulling the pink connector out of the BCM module.... How in the world do you unplug that connector?
I don't remember having much trouble, usually just need to make sure you squeeze the tab well. Or use a small screwdriver to help release it
@ViperMike did you remove the black cover off first? If, yes how? Having a hard time unplugging the pink connector..
@ I don’t remember how I did it anymore, but it wasn’t very complicated. I’ll try watch my video back and see if I can remember
@@BrandonG0726after watching the video, you just cut the ziptie on the bottom of the black cover and you should be able to pop the cover off. The pink connector has a tab on top that you push down to get it to release.
@@ViperMike i did pull out the connector, but can't take the cover off. Lil SOB. Lol
Great video. Do you know if you can get the full 250kwh if you had a lower battery charge ?
Really all depends on the charger. I'm sure you could
If i want to charge the battery, what type of battery? Is that agm or something else?
I didn't use an AGM, as I had to put acid in it. But you can get an AGM one in that same size
Best sounding G63 i have ever heard
Thanks!
Please how did you remove the exhaust manifold
If you're doing it with the engine in the car, you need to unbolt the motor mounts and jack the engine up slightly to get the manifolds to clear
Is the error code in Xentry P000277? thank you
Please explain
man i've been chasing these issues for weeks now. 2017 g63. Coolant hose to turbo blew off, engine overheated to 260, melted numerous gaskets, damaged water pump, oil filter housing, what a mess. Thanks for the video.
Oh man that sucks. Sounds like the engine might have to come out to fix all that.
Any extra power needed to the sub or does it sound fine as you have it?
Works OK with how I have it. Ideally, you'd add an amplifier for it. I may do it soon, just haven't had time
Thank you!
Glad to help!
@ViperMike I uploaded a quick short whe I did mine since they were a little different.
Hello! My check engine light is on and runs rough rpm jumps for a few minutes and then it goes away is it possible that I could have the same problem
You should scan your check engine light first and see what the codes are. Should point you in the right direction
I took it to the dealership today ! They said the same thing but they said they’re not one in Germany but they have three in California and it’s like pulling teeth for them to send them one hopefully they’ll get one . Thanks big guy
Hey VM, I got the same issue on my 2017. Man, it's a tight fit from what I see. How did you get to it? Did you remove the two hoses first (That were not connected to the Aux pump), then slide the grommet off in order to get to the screw points on the hose clamps in order to remove the Aux pump out? I will probably replace the two hoses. It's the Aux pump that is causing the leaks, but while I'm down there I will attempt to replace the hoses if not too difficult. It seems whatever you had as issues on your AMG, I am having as well. But I still love my G63. Thanks for all that you do. 😊
It's actually not too hard to get out, but it's a good idea to replace the hoses
Thanks for posting this ViperMike. I'm interested in replacing the sub in my new 2025 3X truck. If you had to do it over again, would you replace the enclosure all together, or just put an amp on your existing setup?
Realistically this upgraded sub needs an external amp. I didn’t really notice much difference since changing the sub out. I haven’t found a good place to run a power wire from the 12v battery to power an external amp and didn’t want to drill any holes, so I didn’t install one.
@@ViperMike I get that. I'm a DIY'er through and through, but I might leave this on up to the pro's. Thanks for your feedback.
Thank you Sir. 👍
Glad to be of service!
Why don't you try Kris at VM Autohaus in Burnaby.. Kris is awesome.
Thanks soooo much!!!! Getting my 3X pick up in few days!!!!!!
Enjoy!
This was so helpful! I'm so green to the EV world- really appreciate the step-by-step!
Glad I was able to help!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
My g63 need you repair would you please tell me address
did you end up doing the mirrors? wanted to attempt them tomorrow
No I had a look at it and didn't want to risk breaking the mirror. Ended up having the dealer do it. Book time on it was an hour, they told me it took their tech 3 hours to do it. They only charged me an hour though
Thanks for sharing this and what an awesome car by the way just be careful because I believe A-to-Z recalled those first generation adapters for faulty disconnects. FYI.
No problem Glad to help
Thank you for taking the time to document this process! Much Appreciated. used code REWARDS20 and got 45dollars off the $225gm adaptor!
Thanks!
Hi sir when i change the main battery the car do i need to program it or not..thanks..😊
Don't think you need to program it
Thanks for sharing! Got my 2024 Hummer EV SUT setup and ready to go. :)
During the Service A maintenance, the Mercedes mechanic told me that there is a little leakage of oil at the oil filter housing from my 2013 GL 63. I already bought the plunger for the M157 engine (part no. A 278 180 04 38 for 10$). Because of the minimum leakage and my minimum use of the car I will do nothing at the moment. Any idea how many hours it cost to replace?
If they can get the plunger out without taking the filter housing off, it should be a simple fix. Otherwise it would take the the same amount of time this took me to do
@@ViperMike Hmm ok, but maybe the gasket is already done after 112k miles (180k kilometres). How many hours did it took? 5 hours?
@@nlroel Yeah roughly, and that's with filming the video. A tech who knows how to do it should be able to do it faster
what is your mileage?
how do you manually open the valve? Also when did Mercedes start using valve control on their exhaust? I have a 2012 and I dont know if I have one.
Those were aftermarket mufflers. Stock mufflers do not have valves
thanks for this, but also it's infuriating that for what we pay for these EVs this isn't just included by default. especially for how cheap the parts are, and that they're just plug n play
Hi. Can you tell me where exactly the oil was leaking from? I have this problem in a Mercedes CLS 63 AMG with the same engine, from what I noticed the oil is probably leaking from the round cap and it can be replaced without dismantling the whole thing. I think the entire base of the oil filter is good and the problem is only in this round cap
Yes you can replace the cap itself. I just didn’t know if the part was available separately, so I did the whole housing
@@ViperMike I typed the name of the cap itself on the Internet in my country and it's available for about $30, so I'll exchange it and I hope it helps
Thank's sir Hpy nice day
Hey @ViperMike! Awesome videos! It looks like you are located in BC. Are you a mechanic? I have a 2015 G63 that needs some work. Let me know if that's possible to meet or chat about the issues I have. Thank you once again for the videos!
Thanks ! Mercedes wanted me to pay 1100€ for a new pump + installation.
Maybe you could help: I got missfire on cyl 5, replaced the injector 2 times - nothing. The injector works for a few rotates when engine is idling and then shuts off. Got weird value at o2 sensor upstream of cat 6.62 something like that and does not go down. Changed the o2 sensor and still have the same values. Saw some oil in the connector, cleaned it and also nothing changed. So I'am thinking what could it be.
You might have low compression, the G63’s and other cars with this 63 engine are known to have low compression on Cylinder 5 or 7
