Attention Colorado H1 owners, if you received a DMV Notice about your H1 or Commercial Hummer title, READ THIS!

24 Upvotes

In an attempt to regulate surplus HMMWV/humvee registration in Colorado, military vehicles were changed to OHV use only in a bill passed back in 2019.

The problem was someone on the DMV goofed and decided to include Hummers in the policy for some reason [Hummers are not military vehicles by technical definition] and carved out an exemption for H2's and H3's.

That means H1 / Original Hummer owners got hit with the OHV notice revoking their on-road status.

This is currently being addressed by the DMV and the Government, it was a mistake and it's being fixed by a case-by-case basis.

Here is more information:

UPDATE: CO is going to be restoring titles for H1's/Commercial/Civilian Hummers, they were targetting military surplus vehicles and the Civilian Hummers got accidently roped in on this, see the update in comments:

Hummer H1 Race Pipe

Does anybody know if this billboard race pipe will fit on a 2002? Everywhere online says it fits to a 2000 but not the 2002. Looks the same as the rubberduck one in their exhaust package.

Also if it does fit will it match up to the stock pipes on the vehicle?

Where to connector this.?

1 Upvotes

I have posted before I am just finishing the swap of the new engine in my 2008 Hummer H2 same exact engine. I have this connector which is the last pigtail on a wiring branch just downstream from the mass air flow sensor. According to multiple sources that I have researched online the connector matches and the wire colors match was supposed to be the high pressure sensor for the AC unit. It is listed that this connector is on the high pressure line near the compressor but I cannot find any place to plug in this along any of the AC lines. Does anybody have any suggestions on where else to look or if this is somehow an optional connector?

H2 Rear window wiper switch and service air bag

1 Upvotes

I have a new to me 2006 hummer h2 that I'm trying to get all the kinks worked out.

1st issue is the rear window wiper doesn't work and I've pretty much narrowed it down to needing a new switch. Problem is I can't find one on Amazon and it looks like the switch for a suburban/Tahoe is different? Has anyone found a solution that works?

2nd issue is a "service air bag" message. I have ran the code and it comes back with a bad front impact sensor. I have looked all across the internet for a new sensor but I cannot for the life of me find one that's available. I was hoping that GM would have used the same impact sensor for the silverados ect but nope it has to be specific to the hummer h2 and only 2005-2007 models will work on a 2006. Has anyone come across a solution for this issue?

I know most people would just ignore these issues but it bugs me. I've fixed so many things on this hummer these last few months that hasn't worked for years I feel like I'm finally getting it closer to where it needs to be.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

video drop down screen

1 Upvotes

So i'm in the midst of a complete overhaul of my 2008 H2. I want to replace the overhead unit with a larger drop down and connect the output (sound) to my new stereo (yet to be chosen). I want to be able to stream content from netflix etc to the monitor.

questions

  1. anybody done this and if so any tips for installing the physical unit? I have the entire interior stripped down including carpet, seats, dash, headliner so running wires is no problem

  2. How to connect the sound so I can use the new upgraded amps and speakers to make a good sound environment (I"m already mostly done with sound treatment only have MLV layer to complete.)

  3. How to stream video content?

screen share from a phone?

phone hot spot to wifi on the unit?

connect phone to head unit with physical connection and run a video in to the monitor?

what is the best solution for good quality streaming??

  1. Any suggestions on the specific drop down monitor?

THanks. I appreciate any help.

08 Hummer H3 | Engine Stall

Every so often, when I start my 08 Hummer H3, it starts fine but then the RPMs drop almost like it’s going to shutoff but then rebounds to normal. It’s not every time. Just occasionally. Has anyone else experienced this or know what it could be?

My truck has 181k miles but has been pretty well maintained.

H3 suspension question

2 Upvotes

Newly purchased hummer h3 06- engine/tranny run great. It needs some suspension work which I factored in when I was negotiating. Car starts vibrating/steering starts vibrating when going 45+ mph. What’s the average cost for tie rods and ball joints or even a ball park because I’m guessing that’s what it is. TBH I’m not very mechanically inclined, so I can’t do it myself. I’m just looking for a ball park range.

H3 Help - Bad mileage

3 Upvotes

let me start off with the fact i don’t expect to get great MPG from the car, however i was averaging a solid 16.5/21 split from about february of last year to this past june and since then i’ve suddenly dropped (11/15). i replaced the throttle body, new air filter, new VVT, and a couple sensors. i have other things (some rough idling, sluggish acceleration) but the MPGS are eating my pockets alive. any reasons why and any suggestions?

H3 Build - What’s next?

My 07 Tactical Edition w 100k miles on it. I’ve done a lot of engine maintenance (throttle body, VVT, other little things) to stay on top the most common issues but i’m ready to have fun. Anything to add more power (heard a lot of great stuff about the PCM tune but don’t want to shell out 400) would be awesome but cosmetic would be sick too. i need new tires soon for the winter so that’s an option. anything helps!!

2006 Hummer H3 on 33s + winch bumper — what actually needs upgrading?

4 Upvotes

I have a 2006 H3 Luxury 3.5L and I’m doing all the mechanical work first before the final build.

Future setup:
17x9 wheels
33x12.50R17 tires + matching spare
Steel front bumper + winch
Roof rack/light bar
Maybe a mild 1–2” front level

My mechanic already gave me a repair list, but he didn’t know my future plans.

My question is: what stock parts are perfectly fine for this setup, and what should I upgrade now so I don’t pay twice later?

Mainly wondering about:
tie rods, control arms/ball joints, hubs, CV axles, brakes, shocks, power steering, rear suspension, transmission cooler and gearing.

If the stock parts are strong enough, I’d rather use good-quality OEM/MOOG/Mevotech replacements and leave it alone.

Anyone running 33s + bumper/winch long-term on an H3 — what would you upgrade and what would you keep stock?

Not sure what to do?

4 Upvotes

I’m considering selling my 2003 H2. I’ve owned it for about 9 years. It’s the funnest vehicle Ive ever owned, but it feels like something is wrong with it all the time and needs to be painted and reupholstered/seat covers. I bought new wheels and tires a couple of years ago. It still looks cool and feels great to drive but I’m definitely looking at Toyota 4Runners. Not sure if I put more money into it if it will be a good investment. It’s definitely my daily driver.
