  1. For those interested, I went with the Emporia Energy 48-amp level 2 charger. Installed the hard-wired version on a 60-amp circuit with an 85' run of 6 AWG wires. I am really impressed with the charger and its app. I get 18-miles per hour at the full 48-amp draw and 16 MPH at 40-amps. you can set the amp draw in the app. I charge at 40-amps the majority of the time to reduce heat, etc. This is on a 2025 3X pickup.
  2. Thinking about a Hummer 3X pickup but worried about charge time. I have not been able to find a good estimate. Any real world input for those of you with the 3X pickup would be appreciated. Would prefer to go with the Level 2 / 48-Amp charger due to ease of install. Thanks.
  3. 2023 Sierra 1500. Very strange. Had my truck in for service (just oil change & tire rotation), took it through my local carwash, then parked it for a week. Pulled out of the garage and found 75% of my washer fluid on the floor. Checked and could not locate a leak or wet area. Applied positive pressure to the fluid reservoir and it held. Refilled it a week ago and no leaks! I haven't used it much, but the pump seems to be fine as well. What the heck could have caused this? I'd suggest some dip at the dealer poured it all over the place under the hood, but the low fluid warning came on when I first discovered this, and I found no evidence of that.
  4. Exact same thing happened to a friend of mine when his F250 had about 12,000 miles on it. He was actually able to get Goodyear to cover the cost and did not need to get his auto insurance involved. I would make sure your insurance goes after GY...My 2020 had factory Michelins, but my new truck came with GY Trailrunners. Now I think I need to change them out! Dammit.
  5. 2022 Sierra 3500 Duramax. I am getting a clunk that I can feel in my seat and slightly moves the truck after what seems to be initial start each day. Feels like the Allison or maybe transfer case engaging? My 2020 Sierra 3500 DRW Duramax did not do this... Anyone else experience this?
  6. I have gotten that before, but my MyGMC credentials work...
  7. Does anyone know how to remove this cover without tearing the front end off? It is on the bottom of the radiator covering the radiator, trans cooler, etc. Directly behind the aero-shutters. Truck had a cracked transmission cooler from the factory. Dealer replaced it, but left a ton of transmission fluid all over everything. I can't tell if I still have a small leak somewhere, or if spilled fluid is still working its way out. If I could get that cover off, I could get a good view of everything and get it cleaned up. Thanks.
  8. Mine has done that but it continues after a few seconds. I think it is related to something I would do or a certain part of the test - can't remember which.
  9. The weights and measures they show online are RARELY accurate for specific configurations. I would ask the forum members if anyone has what you are looking for so they can check their door tag.
  10. DMax or gasser? Either way, when I Google that code, it talks about the fuel rail pressure / pressure sensor. Has the dealer looked at that?
  11. The only time I ever had a foaming issue of significance was with B20 biodiesel. I did not want to use it, but that's all the station had. Too me about 10 minutes to fill the tank.
  12. Pin weight is a big factor along with ensuring your rig is level behind the truck. I had the same issue with my 2015 Sierra, and, to a lesser extent, my 2020 DRW - trailer pin weight of 3,200+/-. I went with a FlexAir pin box with the 2015 Sierra, and it eliminated 95% of the chucking. It was too long for my 2020, so I went with the RotaFlex, and it did the trick. I like the RotaFlex much better than the FlexAir, as it is a simpler design, and you don't have to worry about adding air all the time.
  13. I have one, and it is great for watching saturation level and regen status, among other things. I always try to let the truck finish its standard regens, even if I have to drive for a while longer. I have not needed to run a manual regen.
  14. My 2015 would do some weird stuff like that intermittently. Are you pressing the brake when you hit the button?
  15. Very nice! Congrats.
