  1. There's also a LOT of data of log, as there are a whole bunch of computers in the truck. The more you log, the less often you can sample it (as the computers and busses are busy running the truck, logging gets whatever is left over.
  2. And use RA's 5% discount code if you buy from them. google for the code, one is always available.
  3. Just don't turn the steering wheel as much?
  4. alldata.com will have the torque specs for all those bolts.
  5. maybe make sure both the hub and the rim surfaces are flat and corrosion free? I know for both my '04 and '12 3500, which are both duallies, I've had the rear wheel lugs loosen sometimes, after tightening, then driving a bit and then re-torquing them. The fronts also sometimes, but much less common vs the rears. And if you have the flanged flat face (vs the acorn style) lug nuts, make sure the flange part can spin easily. I spray some fluid film on the outside and work it into the groove until the flange can spin easily, making sure not to get FF on the threads. This seems to have helped with the lugs getting properly torqued, so they stay tight.
  6. ouch to both. $650 for hooking up their computer and hitting a "reset adapts" button is ridiculous. and I would want to know why they think a new transmission is required besides the manager wanting a bigger bonus this quarter.
  7. 4 1 post posters, and only 1 of them returned to the site after posting, none have returned to the site after 2023, so you aren't going to get a response from any of them.
  8. have you considered asking a dealer these questions?
  9. Hasn't come up in the 3 gm forums I follow. And only gm knows the frequency of failure of that part. LMG, you want a recall so it's replaced for free...
  10. get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.
  11. ouch. that is SUCH a ripoff, as the blank key w chip retails for under $20... It would be somewhat reasonable if you don't have any key for the truck, so they need to program the new key as the master key for the truck, but somehow I think they would charge extra for this...
  12. I would check if it's also getting ground (one of the other pins).
  13. Did you do a voltage check of either battery? old could be bad or discharged, new might not be fully charged.
  14. Note, this can void your whole warranty, if you don't get the speedo/odometer calibrated for it, as your mileage will be off.
