  1. I can’t remember the resistance but if you have infinite ohms then the heater is broken. The circuit is broke - it’s just a long wire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I just did the cushion element, not the back element. It should be just as easy to do the back, once the seat is out, should be easy to identify the clips for the back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Thank you for this guide, I changed out my heating element today. It took me about 1.5 hours. There is a YouTube video out there that was a huge help as well. It’s a shame you have to do this on such a new truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Could you throw some of this stuff on the welds to sure it up? https://www.mastercool.com/product/alum-bond/ Might be a great preventative measure for those of us without the leak! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Put some washers on that T-30 torx bolt, movement gone! Nice job to whoever figured that out. Worked great and took about 15 minutes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Nice review. I agree with you on the price, there will be incentives on these trucks though - it will only be a matter of time. My interest is piqued on the 10-speed, especially if they are going to pair it to the diesel, that could make a great combination! Wish it was offered on the 5.3L though. Was there any mention of adaptive cruise control? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. These truck prices are getting insane! I’ll wait until 20% off is available. Got my 2015 CCSB LT for 34k. Would love to see some LT prices around there for this new model. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I guess you never heard of air bags? Ram has them as an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2018/07/chevrolet-releases-pricing-for-2019-silverado-1500-1.html Pricing is out!
  10. I’m so tempted to slap some JB Weld on there to reinforce the existing weld. A form of preventative maintenance...thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I wonder if you could slap some JB weld on the condenser to sure it up and prevent this problem? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. When I come to a stop on a hill, I get steam coming out of the front of my hood. Is this part of the A/C problem? I have also noticed my truck takes forever to cool down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I wonder if the 2019s have the same wax on the frames? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I have been using fluid film on my frame for about 2 years now. It didn’t dissolve the wax on my frame at all. However it doesn’t really hold up from the constant barrage of salt/anti skid which seems to blast it off easily. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I ended up doing this last night! The fluid film is good stuff but it can’t hold up over winter from the constant barrage of salt/anti skid. My frame looks terrible after this winter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Yea it’s pathetic, my seat movement is back as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. So this just popped up on my Facebook feed - https://chimicles.com/chevrolet-silverado-air-conditioning-defect-potential-class-action/ Class action for defective AC. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. here ya go! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I took it to the dealer and they fixed it. Got an oil change, tire rotation, state inspection, and the seat fix. It all took an hour and a half. The techs must do a lot of these seat fixes if he can do them that quickly with parts on hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Maybe try putting a jack under the knuckle and jack it up a little bit. Then try whacking it with a sledge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Ford paid me $7500 to get out of my 2013 Mustang. $3000 of that went to the lawyer and the rest went to a down payment on a Chevy! Fords are junk! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Heh, that is exactly what I did. Put a glob of silicone on the outside to hold them on. Should be fine, I'm not to worried about it. I will check it at every oil change. They make liquid electrical tape, I might try that if the silicone doesn't work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Yea I think I broke the locks then. Any suggestions on how to fix? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Got the 2" Rough County leveling kit, WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS TO INSTALL!! Started Friday night at 7pm and wasn't able to finish until 11am the next day. Obviously I slept in the time period. Probably 6 hours total. First, I didn't have the correct 7/32 allen wrench, you need to have one with a 90 degree bend in it to clear the half shaft boot. Second, the allen screw on the drivers upper ball joint was stripped from the factory and I couldn't get the upper control arm back on the knuckle!! Was about to go buy a new upper control arm until I decided to search the internet for a solution. IF YOU RUN INTO THIS PROBLEM, use a C-clamp and clamp the upper control arm down onto the knuckle. This allowed me to put the ball joint nut on. I was them able to torque the nut down to spec. It almost turned into a nightmare job luckily it didn't. ALSO, I didn't need a 16mm wrench and the lug nut size is a 22mm deep well, not a 21mm. Question: the power steering connectors where super hard to get off. Once I got them back on, they were then really easy to take off. Did I mess those up?
