I do the same thing sometimes. jim

Mikeyk101, did you disconnect the positive or the negative first? Thanks Jim

Would have been nice if auto makers would have upgraded to a 24 volt system in the past. Now with electric vehicles coming, this won't be an issue. Jim

I know this is going to cause a commotion but I use a little anti seize compound on the mated surfaces of the aluminum wheel and the lug nut. I don`t put any on the threads. Jim

On my 2017 Silverado it was a wiring harness issue. Warranty fixed it. Can't tell y'all what harness they replaced. Probably from the bulb back. Jim

My 2014 had a somewhat same problem. The guy I sold it to said it was a broken wire where they went into the distributor. He found it by shacking them with the vehicle running. Jim

On my 2017 Silverado the right turn signal was out. They replace the harness to the light under warranty. Said it was corroded somewhere. Jim

On 1st look I thought that was a massive flag on the antenna. Jim

My car had an exhaust leak that I could only smell when stopped. When driving the air coming through the rad would push the exhaust down the firewall and out so no smell. Exhaust when stopped would come up the firewall and seep into the intake vent for the heater. No smell on recirculate but this is a 2007 so recirculate shuts off outside air completely. Was somewhere by the manifold close to the engine as I could feel hot exhaust if I put my hand down there during a cool day. Not any nosier though. This was a 2.4 L 4 cylinder. Sold the car. In the old days we would put a potato up the exhaust and if the vehicle stalled then exhaust was sealed. It is funnier if you just put the potato up there and leave and start the car and rev it up. Just like a rocket blowing it out. ? Jim

I have a 2017 4.3 4X4 and was wondering the same thing. Might have to pull a 5000 lb trailer. Do these trucks in the WT format have a transmission cooler? It has those louvers in the front that open and close but I can't see in there. No trailer towing towing package so I doubt it. Jim

My 2017Silverado had the same thing. Upper passenger side had corrosion in it and didn't work. 35,500 miles and fixed under warranty. Bill said they replaced harness. Jim

Good luck on the truck. See you maybe in the future. Jim CYWG

Some have raised the idle a hundred rpm to get rid of the idle shudder. They said it worked. Jim CYWG
