    Thanks for the info! I'm sure the failure rate vs number of trucks built with the 3.0L is still fairly low, but it doesn't instill confidence knowing it could let go at any time.

    Do you happen to know what your build date is? Demonworks on YT was tracking them on the DuramaxNews website. My 2025 is an April build, and I am at around 4500 miles. Getting ready for a 1500 mile road trip, and this is the last thing I want to be worried about.

    I added my phone to my truck as a wireless network. Just have to turn on your hotspot. Truck uses the unlimited data through the phone.

    Based on the numbers from the site you posted, it isn't a widespread issue yet. I have just over 3300 miles on my 2025, and will just keep an eye on it.

    Thanks for the info. I had thought about trying to get over to Grainger, but the dealer dropped the price enough that buying from them was fine. They will be in later today.

    That what I ended up doing. For posterity, the part number is 11589357. They come in a 2 pack and dealer list is $14.03/ea. The parts guy at my dealer charged me the shop price of $10.07/ea.

    I swapped the Ranchos for Bilstein 5100s a few thousand miles ago. I just got back from a 1400 mile trip to TN with my wife, and had a rattle while we were gone. I couldn't see anything obvious at a quick glance, but a check underneath this morning shows that the driver side upper rear shock bolt has backed itself out, and the shock is resting on the spare tire. Does anyone have the size for the bolt handy? I found a part number on gmpartsnow, but it is discontinued. My Google-fu is failing me, and I just need to pick up a replacement bolt. Thanks!

    I filled out the customer satisfaction survey for GM QC. They called me yesterday to talk about the issue with my lumbar inflating on its own. I told them I am taking it in on Wednesday, and they told me they would call back Friday to see if they actually diagnosed and fixed the issue. Take that for what it's worth.

    Your communication module probably failed. Pretty common issue. Dealer will have to replace it.

    I traded in my 22 Refresh Denali 6.2L, and have the Auto-Stop Eliminator for it that I never installed. The 2500HD is a diesel and doesn't have the feature. Message me if you're interested. $75 shipped.

    Does anyone have the part number for these handy?
  12. SPASierra
    Did you ever end up finding these?

    I have it on my truck. It has a deeper tone you will appreciate when you step on it. Your spouse will also be able to carry on a normal conversation with you while driving. That is the main reason I went with the touring.

    No, I just stand clear of them when I open the door.

    Add air and check with a separate tire pressure gauge. Cheap ones can be off by a pound or two. Also, Air expands and contracts based on temperature. If you put air in at 3pm, then check it at 8am in Massachusetts, it will read low because of the temp swing. 35PSI at 70 degrees is always going to read lower at 40 degrees. Watch how the pressure rises when you drive. Your tires heat up, and the pressure goes up.

    I realize the grill and bumper are pretty detailed, but the benefit is worth it. I had mine done professionally with Opti-Coat Pro+, and the wheels were done as well. Bugs are easier to remove from the grill and the wheels clean easily. Washing for me is generally ONR and an occasional M wash from Optimum. I have the Power Wash, and will do that and a iron removal after the winter.

    I really wish more people understood this, instead of falling for the marketing hype of CAI companies. The only way to get more air into a motor is FI. The factory air box and tube isn't going to create enough turbulence over the span of 2 feet to rob you of any meaningful HP.

    Head lamp and flashlight in the center console. Easier to get light exactly where I need it.

    My 22 Refresh Denali is at just under 11K miles. This doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling before driving it from Pa to Maine next week.

    I am guessing that you would have to already have it as a part of your current harness. Plugging something into the vehicle, when it has not idea what it is, is probably not a good idea. If there is a plug in/around that area of the steering column, then you may be able to get it working.

    This part (plus having the wiring harness plug for it) and the programming done. https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-steering-column-control-module-13543768?c=YT1nbWMmbz1zaWVycmEtMTUwMCZ5PTIwMjMmdD1zbHQmZT02LTJsLXY4LWdhcw%3D%3D

    Anything is possible with the right amount of money, but I don't see a need to add it.
  23. SPASierra
    Pi-hole or AdGuard. Easy to set up, and most ads disappear.

    I have 10K miles on my truck, and the majority of those miles are trips that are 5-10 hours of driving each way. The seats are comfortable for me. It's not like sitting in a recliner, but also not like sitting on a board.

    PA doesn't charge the disposal fee if you keep them. I listed them on FB Marketplace and had someone jump on them right away. It basically covered the cost of installing the new tires, which is fine.
