  1. Mode of failure matters. Bad fuel injector as in 'not injecting' or bad fuel injector as in 'stuck open'? Or partial fuelling (underfueling), or overfuelling... One cylinder in an I4 engine is different than one cylinder in a V8 engine. Number of miles driven, at what speeds, and at what loads also matters. Presumably at least some of that was considered when they said it could be driven.
  2. Denali Ultimate is supposed to include UKL as standard. If GM's order guide is correct, supercruise subject to "late availability' (the post at 11:20 was a cut and paste from the current online guide) Certainly wouldn't be the first time a sales/marketing type at a dealer got the info wrong. Also wouldn't be the first time a sales/marketing guy mixed up supercruise with adaptive cruise. And it also could be that the truck that is supposed to have it does have it. Maybe someone on here that has a Denali Ultimate will chime in.
  3. The RPO entry posted is for both denali and denali ultimate trims. As everyone knows, there are lots of trucks shipping features 'not installed' -- (both optional and standard). GM's weekly updates of the order guide do a pretty good job of updating info when 'late availability' items become available.

  5. PTO shafts are normally designed with the same angle for the universal joints on each end.
  6. Supercruise order code still talks about 'late availability'. UKL Super Cruise, a hands-free driver assistance feature for use on compatible roads, includes automatic lane changing and trailering capability, 3-year subscription 1 - Late availability. Included with (RFP) Denali Reserve Super Cruise Package. Requires T*10543 model and (CWM) Technology Package. Not available with (L84) 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 engine or (PEC) Denali Reserve Package. 2 - Late availability. 1 -- Denali 2 -- Denali Ultimate (it will be optional on Denali and standard on Denali Ultimate, and optional on 1500 High Country)
  7. You should get warnings at each start-up once it gets to 300 miles til empty. When it gets to empty it will start a 500 mile countdown to the first (65 mph) speed limit. It should be using about 2% of fuel. So 125 gallons of fuel should use 2.5 gal def. (125 x 0.02 - 2.5 gal) What year is your truck? LML had a 5.3 gal tank. L5P went to 7.0 gal..
  8. Currently a 1500. My 2018 2500 also had no issues with the integrated controller, but of course the 'trailering app' wasn't available then. All these trailers were also pulled by the 2500. Afaik, the itbc and trailering app are the same for 15/25/35
  9. I pull 2 trailers with electric brakes, one with mechanical surge brakes and one with no brakes. I use 'saved' ones for the 2 with electric brakes. These trailers 'live' outside (great lakes area). Haven't had connection issues that weren't corrected by cleaning the blades on the plugs. When they are being connected / used on a regular basis I've not had connection issues. The record of miles pulled and mpg for each trailer is a sorta neat feature, but what I really like the the 'trailer light test' function that cycles thru the brake/running/left/right light activations. Make it simple to do a light check without assistance (or a lot of walking).
  10. I don't think there is a 'touring ' mode, just a 'normal' mode. Driver Mode Control Driver Mode Control (DMC) allows the driver to adjust the overall driving experience to better suit preference by adjusting multiple systems to fit specific driving needs. Drive mode availability and affected vehicle subsystems are dependent upon vehicle trim level, region, and optional features. Modes: Normal Mode Sport Mode Snow/Ice Mode Off-Road Mode Tow/Haul Mode Terrain Mode
  11. Truck should have come with the necessary tube/funnel to use when adding fuel from a portable container. Filling the Tank With a Portable Gas Can If the vehicle runs out of fuel and must be filled from a portable gas can: 1. Locate the capless funnel adapter from inside the vehicle. 2. Insert and latch the funnel into the capless fuel system. 3. Remove and clean the funnel adapter and return to the storage location.
  12. The place there is a fit issue is 2500/3500 vs 1500. The heights are different.
  13. true... and the first 3 make up the WMI - world manufacturer Identifier The first three digits of a vehicle’s VIN make up the World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI). - The first digit defines the country of origin or the final point of assembly of your vehicle. - The second digit indicates the manufacturer and the region where your vehicle was produced. - The third digit, when coupled with the first two digits, indicates your vehicle’s type or manufacturing division.
  14. Yupp. Seems I misinterpreted by looking at the other section of the guide.
  15. Weight distribution to far to rear of trailer can make it wiggle, sometimes violently. Worse at higher speeds.
  16. There is a list of reasons why it might not kick-in (when it is working correctly( If none of them apply, it's your decision about getting it corrected. Auto Stops may not occur and/or Auto Starts may occur because: . The climate control settings require the engine to be running to cool or heat the vehicle interior. . The vehicle battery charge is low. . The vehicle battery has recently been disconnected. . Minimum vehicle speed has not been reached since the last Auto Stop. . The accelerator pedal is pressed. . The engine or transmission is not at the required operating temperature. . The outside temperature is not in the required operating range. . The vehicle is in any gear other than D (Drive). . Tow/Haul Mode or other driver modes have been selected. . The vehicle is on a steep hill or grade. . The driver door has been opened or the driver seat belt has been unbuckled. . The hood has been opened. . The Auto Stop has reached the maximum allowed time. Mine frequently doesn't activate due to some of the reasons above, especially at the start of a trip. I've also figured out that I can reduce the brake pressure enough to have it restart, without actually moving...after doing that the "Minimum vehicle speed has not been reached since the last Auto Stop" item applies and it will not re-activate at that stop.
  17. GM assembles 1500's in Ft Wayne and Silao. Oshawa assembles some chev 1500's Flint assembles GM 2500/3500. Oshawa assembles some chev HD's Ram build 1500's in Sterling Heights and builds 2500's in Saltillo
  18. Agreed, but there still is a 'model year' change over. Even it it is just an update to the vin numbers....
  19. I'm pretty sure chat was referring to when they close the orders for the refreshed '22s -- fleet and regular. All three plants making 1500's are now building the 22.5's Orders will close when they have taken enough orders to fill the remaining production slots available prior to model year change-over. Sometimes orders taken late get replaced with a revised order for the next model year. Model year change-over is traditionally mid-summer, if there are not major product/production equipment changes happening.
  20. I've been a fan of the factory controller for the last 10-12 years. If you pull multiple trailers, the trailering app can save your preferred setup for each of them. It will also track miles pulled, fuel economy with each, maintenance stuff (if you add it) and so on. Also has a 'guest' setting for pulling trailers that you don't want to add all the info for.
