  1. Joke is on me. Took it to the dealership and they said since it was out of warranty I had to pay their hourly rate to update my software. No thanks
  2. My truck started prompting me to update my software a couple of weeks ago. As soon as I put it in park it dings and an update shows up on my screen. The 1st time I tried it I was not hooked up to Wi-Fi so it did not work. I have pulled it into my garage and hooked up to my home Wi-Fi and tried several times to update but it never updates. I leave my radio on so I know it trying because the radio stays on after I lock the truck. I have a good enough Wi-Fi signal in my garage to run ring cameras which are further from the router but the truck won’t stay connected to my home Wi-Fi. i have also tried hooking to my hotspot on my phone. Same thing. It connects and then disconnects 20 seconds does anyone have any ideas or do I need to take it to the dealer and let the them update the software?
  3. I have a 2021 gmc 1500 SLT. When i go from reverse to forward my mirror on the driver's side keeps running for about 15 seconds. Any idea what i could do to fix this besides replace the mirror? i do have the mirror set to move when I put it in reverse. Video Project 1.mp4
  4. I just had the o rings on my front Bilstiens put in the very bottom slot. I guess this is stock height. All the noises went away.
  5. I have a 2021 gmc 1500 with the 6.2 gas motor. i have had 2 times in 7-8 oil changes where my oil filter has come loose. The only way I notice it is when it rains and I have a slight oil slick in my driveway. 2 different shops did the work. The 1 st time it happened it was at a crappy shop and I lost at least 2 quarts. The filter was about 1/2 way off today I noticed it and the filter just needed tightening up and a 2/3 quart. The filter on it is the right filter for the truck. A honest shop did the last oil change. has anybody ever seen anything like this? Could it been something with where my filter connects to the truck? I am going to change my own oil next time I am at my camp and see if there are 2 O rings behind the filter or something else I can’t see.
  6. Sierra 85 pm just sent to you. Thanks
  7. I took it to a local shop yesterday that is known for hood work and they thought it was my lift arms binding when I turned. They said everything was tight and that is the only thing it could be. They recommended that I take it to a shop that specializes in lift kits to get a second opinion.
  8. The noises my truck makes only happens when I turn sharp
  9. Those bolts are a whole lot harder to get to in a 2021
  10. I went to make sure a new bottle jack would work for my 2021 NON AT4 1500 yesterday and I saw the jack pads on the beams that run parallel to the to the truck. They are behind the front axel. No jack I had would get the tire off the ground so these must be for mechanics hoists. where do you put the jack for changing a front tire? The owners manual just shows the jack pads mentioned above.
  11. Now that I think about it it seems to come from the drivers side
  12. Thanks. I will do it tonight when I get to my farm. I have 275’s on the truck. I think it came with 265’s.
  13. It sounds like a hammer hitting something solid and I can feel it in the steering wheel. Only happens when turning sharp or turning while going over bumps like gutters, etc
  14. Sorry I left that out. No it is not an AT4
  15. I have a 2021 1500 gmc that I put front and rear Bilstien’s on as soon as I got the truck. I bought it new. The shocks are set at 1 inch. It has made clicking noises when I turn sharp which have gotten worse over time. I was told that the cv angles are wrong and that is what is causing the noise. If this is true 1 option is to lower the shock by 1/2 inch. To do this the shop would have to tear down the entire front strut to adjust the shock. I was thinking that for close to the same price I could just replace the control arms with an aftermarket set. what do you think?
  16. He would not have to pee too far
  17. Birmingham Al city water. All pipes are copper or pvc.
  18. I bought some iron remover and will try this evening. Thanks for the ideas.
  19. I don’t know where the metal would have come from. Sits outside all the time.
  20. I am going to let GMC fix this. Never seen a bed liner rust.
  21. I have a 2021 gmc 1500 that came from the factory with a spray in bed liner. A ring of rust has developed around the edge of the bed with the exception of the tailgate. Has anybody ever seen this before? I live in birmingham, Al so salt air and salt on the roads is not an issue. the only fix I know is to redo the liner. I never had this issue with a line x
  22. Do you need to re tune after installing a new air intake?
  23. Will unlocking the ECM and using a turner void the warranty or you able to go back to factory settings before you take it in for service? I have a 2021 Sierra with 6.2 gas engine
