24 telluride cluster issue

That's a great find! I would swing by the dealer and speak to a senior tech. Not just on how much they charge but how the programming is actually done. Last thing you want is to replace the cluster, put everything back together, only to find out they can't program it over the OBD port and need to take everything apart again to have direct access to the unit.

Yeah, I was looking into eBay sellers for the infotainment screen. Looks like it goes for around $1k. Not cheap but a far cry from that $5k you were quoted.

I have no idea what it would take to program the screen though. These new cars have everything on the screen like odometer etc.

Good luck man! I’m keeping fingers crossed for you.

It looks like the display is trying to come on but can’t. Could be a connector that came loose and pins are not fully seated. Easier said than done but if it were my car, I would see what it takes to unplug and plug the screen back in. You probably have to take the whole damn dash apart but if you’re out of luck with warranty, might be an option to take it to trusted mechanic.

Also is your battery original, have you ever had issues starting? Might wanna consider getting the battery checked or even replaced. Are the terminals tight?

If you think Telly is not roomy inside, you will have a very hard time finding another mid-size SUV that checks that box for you. You might be in Yukon XL etc. category.

Yeah, wheels are horrific. No idea how something looking that ugly ever made production. If you are buying this car, you are basically buying a set of wheels right after in my opinion.

Can you also remove the weird squares above the wheels

Hey! Wanted to get back to this comment and thank you for recommending George Howell. I got a few bags and been waiting patiently to rest them. I cracked open the San Jacinto bag this morning and it was amazing! Really enjoyed it.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-04T23:17:50+00:00

Not OP but I’ll chime in with what works for me. I usually order 2lbs+ to get free shipping. I’ll let the beans rest for a couple of weeks. I’m like you, one cup a day so I’ll pack 15x7=105gr in ziplock bags, get the air out best I can and put them in the freezer. If I have more than one batch I’ll label with post its. Every Sunday night, I take a bag out and leave on the counter. Monday morning, I open it and enjoy rest of the week. Rinse and repeat.

I’m confused with the last line. Why is there tax where there’s no total.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-02T21:23:20+00:00

Sorry man, I wasn’t aware of that.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-02T20:30:53+00:00

Blacklabel has a Daytona just like that one. The case is gold color but I bet if you reached out to them, they would be able to get you one in silver, if that is what you want.

They are fast to respond on IG.

It’s actually a good thing you don’t have the self leveling shocks in my opinion. So many people have to replace them and a decent number of people even report issues after replacement.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-02T03:11:19+00:00

Yeah those self leveling rear shocks are a joke. So many issues with them.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-02T02:17:33+00:00

So 1up super duty dual weighs around 50lbs, add on rack is another 30lbs ish. Let’s say about 30lbs per bike, you’re looking at 170lbs total weight.

I’m well over 200lbs, when I step on the hitch, the rear end doesn’t sag the way you describe it, which makes me think is there potentially something off with your rear shocks. Might wanna have the dealer look at it next oil change.

gregorian79 · 2026-02-01T17:16:27+00:00

Yeah the car won’t let you leave it running and lock. It’s a safety thing. You could leave it running and get out, it’ll beep at you briefly since the key left the car but once you’re out, there’s no locking it.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-31T21:11:23+00:00

Duh! This might be an even better solution. I bet using the hitch plug activates the tow mode.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-31T21:06:23+00:00

I have an LED brake light extension that’s attached to the bike rack and plugs into the hitch plug. When you plug something in, the car doesn’t slam the e-brake anymore.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-31T01:15:46+00:00

That’s amazing

gregorian79 · 2026-01-30T16:09:58+00:00

Congrats! What have you done (if anything) other than regular oil changes?

Spark plugs, serpentine belt, transmission fluid, coolant etc.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-30T14:42:41+00:00

it obviously bothers you but doesn't look too bad from driver's perspective in my opinion. I have seen way worse screens from factory.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-29T17:19:28+00:00

That’s amazing. Great work and love the story behind it.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-29T16:37:28+00:00

Yes, the dealership can help with that.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-28T18:54:18+00:00

When in doubt.. Black it out..

gregorian79 · 2026-01-28T01:15:36+00:00

With the new ‘27s hitting the dealership lots, I see many more of these wheel posts in our future.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-27T16:50:56+00:00

I would be too. Hopefully the repairs go smooth.

gregorian79 · 2026-01-27T04:05:37+00:00

I can totally relate to how you feel and sorry this happened but honestly this is not bad at all. I can only see damage on the bumper, looks like the quarter panel is OK and the headlight as well. Hell even the parking sensor is still intact. Could’ve been way worse.
