  1. After owning this truck and putting 65,000 miles on it i can say i will never purchase one with this engine in it again. MPG not that great, Sounds like a diesel in the cab. Have had other issues with it emissions PUMP. get ready to shell out another $360 to get that replaced, Not covered under the extended warranty GM provided. Overall i like the truck but the drivetrain leaves a lot to be desired.
  2. Purchased a 2020 Silverado 4x4 and having this same type issue, truck makes a grunting sound then squeel first thing in the morning. have already been in the shop 16 days of the first month i purchased it for an engine issue. Now with 4,000 miles it has a brake issue. GM gave me a 6year 100,000 mechanical warranty after the first issue. Should have pushed the issue to have the truck replaced.
  3. update. That part of the truck hads been repaired. Now it's been back 2 more times because the truck makes a moaning type noise along with nrake squeel when i leave my home in the morning. really getting tired of this BS...
  4. Still no truck, back in the shop for the second time. thay have had the truck now from January 31st thru Feb 3rd and from Feb 4th until present. Have filed a complaint with GM, purchased this truck January 25th and at the point where i no longer want this particular truck back. The buying experience is completely ruined and the trust in this vehicle when or if they do fix it is gone.
  5. I recently purchased a 2020 Silverado LT with the 2.7. Unfortunately it has been at the dealership more than in my driveway. When starting cold it goes into what they call "Max cooling" they took it in and rebooted the computer and reset the codes and gave it back to me. drove it home started the next morning and the same issue was still present. Very irritating to purchase a new vehicle and not have the ability to have in your possession. They currently have it at there facility and told me they are replacing physical parts. Not exactly sure what that entails. Plan on calling today to get some answers. At the point honestly the buying experience has been mauled to death and my trust in this vehicle compromised.
  6. 2020 Silverado 2.7 purcased new, had in my possession for 4 days. Truck when started went into they call "MAX COOLING MODE" pegged oil pressure @ 90 psi truck did not heat up and when driving got approx 14 mpg. Dealer took vehicle rebooted the computer and gave back to me 4 days later. drove it home started following morning and was not impressed that the truck did exactly the same thing. I'm beyond annoyed this is not acceptable to purchase a $40,000 + vehicle and have these types of problems. Have reched out to GM and also the dealer again, I want it fixed correctly and timely or a different vehicle. Totally ruined the buying experience.
  7. Truck does not have a block heater, Gas Turbo Engine but not a bad option to look at adding since I live in the midwest. The low oil pressure at first caught me off guard but after researching more of how this new engine functions made sense. They gave me a Trail Boss to drive in place of mine until it is fixed. has 5.3 and also has 30 psi at idle. Want my truck back this one looks nice but the inside is all plastic. Truthfully I think that 2.7 would give this truck a run for it's money. Regardless once i get it back I have lots of parts in my garage to turn it into a 2.7 Trail Boss. Will post pictures once it is finished, If I ever get it back that is.........
  8. Dealer cotacted me, Seems that GM knows of the issue and is working on it. ECM software has an bug and puts the truck in max cooling mode. They have reprogrammed the ECM but only with the original software so this will show up again until they fix the software. Keeping my fingers crossed they find the solution soon.
  9. I have also researched this new engine and amazed by the engineering involved. being a mechanical engineer myself can understand how all the pcs fit together. I was skeptical about purchasing a truck with this engine but after test driving 3 different trucks with the 5.3, 4.3 and this 2.7 i was sold. Awesome throttle response, you can feel the torque almost immediately. and overall felt more powerful. I'm hoping that it's a simple electrical issue. have scoured the internet but I must be the first person to have this issue. or at least the first person to write about it.
  10. purchased a 2020 silverado LT 2.7, ran great getting 24 mpg , live in Iowa so cold mornings, started it yesterday morning both radiator fans were blasting at full speed. after pushing the start button and put in gear the ywent back to normal. This morning i started the vehcle and it did the same but this time when i tried t odrive it noticed the oil pressure at 90psi and after driving approx 10 miles no heat, the truck never got any heat and the mileage was at 14. Called the Chevy dealer and told them to come and get it. No iidea what is causing this issue. has less than 800 miles
