  1. Onstar covers the tow. Maybe the dealer gives them a kickback?? I don't know. So figure I saved $150 for the tow. Either way the dealer stealer prices are criminal. But the fuel pump module needs to be programmed, or some non-sense.. Full tank of fuel, stranded in the middle of a ghetto job site. No way I can DIYer... Sometimes you need to pay the man.
  2. Fuel pump & fuel pump module at dealer. $1250 !! Ooch.... But they covered the tow truck. 80,000 miles.. so can't complain too badly.. Just unexpected fund loss with covid...
  3. Where is the best place for clearance to add a bung ?
  4. Suburban.. I know.. not a Silverado. My 2003 had a tranny pan drain plug. My 2013 does not. Do they make a pan with a drain plug ? OEM, aftermaket ??
  5. Diehard Gold aren't what they used to be. I manage a fleet, and only getting 3-4 years out of them. No more pro-rated warranty. Sears closing down all over. I'm done with Diehard. Moving on to Interstate. We'll see how they hold up...……………………...
  6. There is nothing to think about. $10 Million dollar GM engineering department certainly knows what the problem is. No doubt about it. What is baffling why they don't issue a conclusive TSB. My guess: the body style probably needs a redesign to eliminate the problem. And a redesign for these trucks is too early, & too costly. They would need to retool the entire production line, and the model is only 3 years old now, and they usually run models 8 years before a redesign.
  7. There are 10 zillion of these trucks on the used car market. Obviously there is a serious problem, and GM doesn't seem to care. I see them at Infinity dealers, Audi dealers; used, low miles, like new. So move on, get something else, because there is no cure. Only band-aids. And to the guy who had 2 brought back, and then you brought a 3rd...... shame on you. I love GM, and it's the only cars I own, but I would never by a 2015-2017 GM truck due to this. Let common sense prevail. Me personally, I brought a clean 2014 with 30,000 miles. Because I'm tried of reading about this.
  8. Considering the 2017's will be rolling onto dealer lots very very soon. Nothing is probably fixed, or redesigned....
  9. I have a set of CK375 wheels for sale. 22". To see what they look like. google CK375 GM wheels.
  10. 1 year later, actually many many years. This tranny is still slipping between 1st & 2nd gear. Hasn't blown up yet.
  11. My problem is completely solved. 100%. I brought a 2013 LTZ No buffeting, no vibrations.
  12. After following this problem for months. The fix is obvious. 1) rip the head liner, and weld the roof bars to the roof. Then find an interior shop to put it back together.... with some dyno mat. Then people talk about less than 15 lbs road force. Obviously the truck is very sensitive to any irregularities in the tires. But the road force is just a Band-Aid or a mask. There must be a resonant frequency that is causing the vibe. and Mr. CA with his new lowering springs is changing the dampening levels on the shocks and springs, so it's eliminating that problem. I doubt it's the pinion angle. GM knows all about it. Why they prefer to go through all the law suits, buy backs, and bad reputation on the internet is beyond me. That is the baffling question.
