  1. 2014 GMC Sierra K1500 5.3 V8 - Purchased new August 2014. Build date in June, 2014. Only work so far: At 30,000 miles or so CEL on three separate times over a two week period - always code P050D - no other code. Dealer replaced all 8 fuel injectors. All covered under my GMPP extended warranty but the $200.00 deductible. Truck is getting better mileage around town and on highway. By my calculations at least 2 more mpg. Engine also sounds quieter. Use Mobil1 0W-20 Advanced Fuel Economy Dexos1 Certified oil.
  2. Picked up my truck from the dealer today - Wed, June 12th. All 8 fuel injectors were replaced. Receipt lists " INSTALLED 12684125 :SL-N-INJECTOR KIT (0300-CT) Qty: 8 " My "receipt" lists no numbers for labor, materials, etc. - just says Warranty under Amount. I did get a look at the paper with the total on it - around $1,200.00. Dealer service rep said something about their cost billed back to GMPP and my cost without the extended warranty would have been much higher. I paid $200.00 - my extended warranty deductible. Time will tell if this fix works and keeps the CEL off.
  3. Update from my last post on May 25th. My extended warranty - GMPP - GM Protection Plan - which expires in 2021 or 84,000 miles - is covering the cost of the 8 new fuel injectors less a $200.00 deductible. I dropped my '14 GMC Sierra off at the dealer today at 4:30PM. Service Rep said I should have it back Thurs. afternoon. I was informed the 5 Year PowerTrain warranty does not cover fuel injectors. FYI only code P050D logged when CEL came on. No other codes. Will post again after I get the truck back.
  4. Update from my last post on May 14th. Dealer originally said my 5 year power train warranty was covering the replacement of all 8 injectors. Waited about 5 days and heard nothing back. Called service writer and was told the injectors would not be covered. I asked if they could check to see if the injectors would be covered under my extended warranty - GMPP - GM Protection Plan - which expires in 2021 or 84,000 miles on odometer. They checked and said GMPP is covering all 8 injectors and my deductible is $200.00. Now the dealer did not clear the engine light the second time it came on. It has remained on - until yesterday - light went off and has not come back on. Waiting to see what happens. Do these CELs normally go off after a certain amount of time? Truck still runs good - only I notice a sight rough idle when starting truck cold. Purchased truck new in August, 2014. Now has 30,000 miles.
  5. Thanks. I will check it out.
  6. I don't think they will give me my $85 back. However I will ask after ALL fuel injectors are replaced.
  7. The dealer service person did not provide specifics about any coverage other than to say GM is covering this under my warranty. I asked if this was under the power-train warranty and she just said it is being covered. My truck has just shy of 30,000 miles and was purchased in August, 2014 - nearly 5 years ago. Thanks for the info/advice. Will post here what happens. My truck was manufactured in June, 2014.
  8. Thanks for the info!
  9. I plan to buy a code reader. Any suggestions?
  10. Update - Truck showed same code again this morning. Went to dealer this afternoon. Dealer is replacing ALL fuel injectors. Service person said it will be covered under my power-train warranty. We will see. Purchased truck new in August, 2014.

  12. Well my 2014 GMC Sierra (purchased new) with less than 30,000 miles showed a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL - Engine Symbol Light) on dash last Wed - May 8th. I called OnStar and received the report via e-mail below - Code P050D. Truck ran fine. Scheduled truck into the dealer for Fri morn May 10th. Dealer kept truck until around noon the next Day to make certain code did not reappear on cold start. I picked up my truck and no problems since the P050D. Here is some of the repair receipt: #1 - 3202: Engine Repair Installed laptop and was unable to duplicate concern at this time. Tech tested and test drove several times and was not able to duplicate. Advised customer to return if concern returns. No repairs were made at this time. $85.00 plus tax. Is this it for diagnostics? Seems to me like the tech cleared the code - drove the truck - no code - calls it good. Drove truck yesterday on a 60 mile 90 percent highway trip and mileage on dash showed 19.2.

  13. I always add a little SeaFoam to the fuel mixture used for my Stihl 2-cycle chainsaw, Weed-Eater & Blower/Vac as well as my '94 Lawn-Boy Gold mower fuel mix. Seems to help.
  14. Great! Glad it worked out.
  15. Jrs 94 - Any update on the gauge cluster cover/LENS?
  16. Hope it is the correct part. Probably heard this a million times - Take your time replacing this piece. Good luck with it!
  17. Looks like the LENS and Bezel are all one piece. On my '91 Chevy K1500 the IP (Instrument Panel) LENS was a separate part than fastened onto the bezel with screws. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-88-89-90-91-GM-1500-TRUCK-SPEEDOMETER-CLUSTER-CLEAR-PLASTIC-LENS-ONLY/221057766334?epid=1289425428&hash=item337811d3be:g:HigAAMXQsoNRg5wQ:sc:USPSPriority!43952!US!-1:rk:3:pf:0 The LENS in the link above is for standard the non-tach cluster in '91. Another LENS part number is required for the '91 optional Tach cluster.
  18. Is this it? https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-14-18-SIERRA-SILVERADO-TAHOE-YUKON-CLUSTER-LENS-2014-2015-2016-2017-2018/223063957890?hash=item33efa5e182:g:F8MAAOSwSwNbTQwr:rk:15:pf:0
  19. Last night I tried this fix. I pulled back on the accelerator pedal and placed two stacked neoprene rubber washers - each 1/8 inch thick and 2 inches round - under the black plastic bracket to take up the gas pedal flex. I was able to push the rubber washers far enough up behind the bracket where the lower bolt/nut is located that I could barely see the edge of the washers - and that is looking from under the dash. That bolt/nut as stated in prior posts must not go clear through the floorboard. Then I drove the truck. Wow! What a difference in throttle response. Great tip. Thanks!
  20. Too soon to tell on fuel mileage but so far seems the same. Yes - device plugs right into the OBD2 port under the dash.
  21. Plugged in my new RANGE AFM Disabler Friday. No codes or problems. Not enough time behind the wheel to make an accurate report but the truck seems more responsive especially on the hills.
  22. Just turned 20,000 on my '14 GMC Sierra yesterday - Nov 7th, 2017. I'm averaging a bit over 500 miles per month I think if my math is right. I drive about 4 miles to work one way.
  23. Try one of these to wash off the underside of your truck: https://www.amazon.com/EMPIRE-Riding-Mower-Deck-Washer/dp/B005Y0EVEM/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1509990581&sr=8-2-fkmr2&keywords=mower+deck+spray+clean+out
  24. Glad no one was hurt. I own a '14 GMC Reg Cab Long Bed. So far I haven't smelled anything burning or seen any smoke. Please let me know your build date and final assembly location. My '14 was built in June, 2014 and final assembly was completed at Roanoke, IN. Does the window sticker for your truck have a statement like the one below from my truck?
