  1. FYI anyone needing to replace this filter, GM# 12623757. Here is a link to a diagram, if you need to see where it is (No. 30). https://www.wholesalegmpartsonline.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=1276832&ukey_product=10487595
  2. I might be using the wrong search. Do you know part number by chance?
  3. Oil pressure switch filter/screen for 4.3L V6? I can't seem to find one, was there a screen on the V6?
  4. I tried looking for the pressure switch screen, and came up empty. Thought maybe the v6 might not have one. I'll check again. Thanks all for the replies.
  5. I had read in some other threads that these vehicles were sensitive to oil and filter, ie. Bad or incorrect filter or non synthetic oil or wrong oil weight could cause this particular code. As truck is new to me seemed worth a shot as a flush and extra oil change won't hurt. If solenoid is only stuck or filter bad is a longshot but might as well before considering expensive repair. Louisiana does not do an emissions test. It's called a brake tag, they check all lights, horn and whether the wipers wipe. Mostly just a tax.
  6. Silveradosid you are correct. seems like probably a $1200-$2000 job, though. Anyone had this work done on a 4.3L? Wondering what is the cost. I'm going to try a flush and oil change back to oem oil and filter. Currently Mobile 1 with NAPA gold filter, but it seems the solenoid is the most likely culprit. Maybe a cheapo bluetooth code reader to look for additional codes.
  7. Found this. I guess it's a toss up for fuel efficiency or pricey repair.
  8. 2015 Silverado 4.3L v6 WT 120,000 mi. PO had a code indicating oil pressure switch, which was leaking, and had one in the truck. Upon replacement mechanic says p06dd is now showing. Oil change at the same time as replacement. Truck indicates oil pressure. Cold idle 60, warm drops to 40 at idle, under 40 in park, 50 underway as high as 70 under acceleration. 2 mechanics say not to worry as there is good pressure. Is the solenoid something to worry about in the v6?
