Hi There. Does anyone know if the rear sliding glass can be replaced on its own on a 2014-2018 Silverado/Sierra 1500? Does anyone have any instruction on how to do it? I have seen lots of people swap out the whole assembly but can't find much info on just the slider part of the window. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I will take a look into this place. Thanks for the information!

Thanks for the replies. Yes I agree that the pump halves likely need to be machined or replaced along with the pump internals. I am just curious as to what torque converter options people have had good luck with or recommend, or perhaps people are sticking with OE? I will obviously be replacing the torque converter at the same time.

I am going to pull the pan and take a look this weekend. Does anyone have any recommendations on torque converters? I see RockAuto has the genuine GM ones that are reman. Not sure if I want to put an oem one on since they are known to fail. I see they also have TC Remanufacturing ones, any one heard or know if they are any good? Thanks again.

No I am not seeing that yet from what I have noticed. Only the two hard shifts/slip and the noise the trans makes right where the torque converter sits when it comes off idle.

Hello All, just looking to get some thoughts here on my 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 (113k miles) with a growling/grinding sort of noise coming most prominently from the front bell housing area. Based on what I have been researching and the location of the sound, I am thinking my torque converter is beginning to fail. I just noticed this for the first time after a 160 mile trip home from vacation. The whole way home the transmission shifted great and no obvious signs or noises but when I approached my driveway I noticed two hard shifts/slips. I did take it for a brief drive the next day and the transmission seems to operate normal other than the noise. No trouble codes so far. I really only notice the sound when coming off idle in park or in gear or when accelerating. No other hard shifting or slipping symptoms yet after that from what I can tell. My question is, based on the pretty limited info I gave above, do I seem like I am likely on the right track to diagnosing a bad torque converter? I will pull the pan over the next few days and look for excess metal shavings. My next question is, if I have caught this early enough, can I get away with just replacing the torque converter or will I need to replace the whole transmission? Any one here go through a similar situation? I am interested in all feedback. Thanks in advance.

Did you ever get a resolution to the issue. Mine is making the same exact noise and I am going through the same process. Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I have been unable to find a definitive answer but will consult GM in the next few days. Thank you

Hi everyone, I am replacing the transfer case output shaft seal and the front differential pinion seal on a 2014 Silverado 1500 5.3L. I am looking for the torque specs for the 4 bolts on the drive shaft u joint holding the drive shaft to the pinion and also nut from the u joint carrier to the pinion. My understanding is that there is supposed to be a certain amount of preload on this nut? Hoping my terminology is correct. If anyone has this info I would appreciate it. I have been searching the forums but not coming up with the correct specs I don't believe. Thanks in advance.

Ok thank you for the reply. I will check the wiring first and module. I will search the forms to see if there is a way to test the module. Thanks

Hello All. I am having an issue where once I start my truck, the "Trailer Connected" message appears when I do not have any trailer connected and then it moves to "Check Trailer Wiring". If I do plug in a trailer, the electric brakes do not work and the message continues to appear. I have disconnected the battery to reset the computers, cleaned both the front and rear electrical connector for the 7-way connector and nothing. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

That's perfect. Thank you!

Hello. Would anyone happen to know a part number for the electrical connector for a 2014 Chevy Silverado 5.3L (round ignition coil type)? I assume it might be a pigtail type harness or just the plastic plug itself (if re-pinning the connector)? I have a connector that has cracked and needs to be replaced but for the life of me I cannot seem to find the right part number. Tried looking genuine GM or ACDelco and no luck. If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I always use GM parts, which I did for the O2 sensor, however, I did not replace the catalytic converter with an OEM one. I used one from Walker. I know these aftermarket cats will not last as long as an OEM one, however, I would definitely hope it would work for over 10000kms

Hello Everyone, digging up an old thread of mine. I am still having issues diagnosing a P0430 issue on my Silverado 5.3. The light is not on all the time, sometimes if I clear it it will stay off for a while or if you just drive with it on for a while it will turn off again on its own. It seems like the light triggers sometimes when cruising at lower speeds for an extended period of time. Since my last post, I have replaced the catalytic converter/Y pipe, replaced the O2 sensor and MAF sensor cleaned. The voltage in O2 Bank 2 Sensor 2 was all over the map before the cat was replaced but corrected to closely mirror O2 B1S2 once the cat was replaced. The fuel trim also observed through my scan tool looks consistent. There are no apparent misfires that I can detect or any misfire codes thrown. Any other thoughts or has anyone else run into this issue?
