  1. Does anyone have any images of their vehicle running 285/50r22 tires? I can find 285/55 all day but not any 285/50 guess it's an odd size. Also if you know if they will rub on OEM wheels with 2 inch level 2015 Silverado 4x4 that would be appreciated. Thanks!
  2. I've searched and found threads about 285/50s and 285/55s but not 295/50r22. It appears bfg has this size in the ko2. Anyone running this size and if so does it scrub?
  3. Got my hopes up when I saw this post. Been waiting for someone to put up a set for sale. Then I realized this thread is so old it was probably posted with dialup internet
  4. Disregard. Found a good deal on a i2 so went that route. Mods can delete/lock thread if need be
  5. Looking for a Diablosport i3 for GM vehicles. Unmarried only.
  6. Still available? I'll get it.
  7. I was wondering if anyone had an Advent OGM1 laying around they would sell for a reasonable price? I'm looking to upgrade the factory nav unit in my wifes 2007 Tahoe. I know it's a long shot as these are currently hard to come by. If anyone knows of any other comparable options it would be much appreciated.
  8. Noticed you have an 09 like me. Have you tried this reset procedure? ------> https://ricksfreeautorepairadvice.com/service-4-wheel-drive-message/ Mine popped up a while back and this fixed it quick and easy no parts required. Kinda hope it isn't your problem because it sounds like you have put a lot of money into it.
  9. If it is moving freely the first thing I would do is get under the truck and verify the shifter linkage is hooked up and not broken.
  10. You probably got this fixed by now but as somebody said change the brake switch. Mine had the exact same problem only in cold weather. Switch fixed it.
  11. Agreed. These engines are notoriously finicky when it comes to spark plugs. Best to just use the oem delcos. That was going to be my next suggestion if he used the right spark plug wires and they were wired correctly.
  12. I went to NTB one time to get a set of toyo open country m/ts mounted and balanced on my truck. All seemed well but on the drive home when I got up to speed noticed the steering felt touchy as hell and was all over the road. Pulled up the air pressure on the DIC and the knuckleheads had put 80psi in all 4 tires when I should have been running around 35-40 unloaded. In the end not a huge issue but still left me questioning who they employ. Probably won't be using them again.
  13. Have you verified whether they were the correct plug wires or not? That is where I would start. If they aren't right will def cause problems.
  14. Well after talking with the dealer some more yesterday they have agreed to put a new oil pressure sensor on the vehicle and see if that resolves the issue. They stated they would not be going any further than that however. After talking to a couple of mechanics and reading up on the symptoms typically seen with a faulty oil pressure sensor I'm not optimistic this will fix it. We did take it to a 3rd party mechanic but he said it would be $150 to do the test with a manual gauge so we decided against that when the dealer should be handling it. Looks like we will end up having to walk away. A real shame because for a 2007 this vehicle was super clean and everything appeared to be in excellent condition other than that. Oh well the search continues I guess.
  15. So I've been reading up on this and it would seem the oil pressure at hot idle should be around 20-25 psi. IF testing manually with another gauge confirms this vehicle is only at about 10lbs I think it would be safe to say this is a vehicle I should stay far away from correct? It seems likely it would be a oil pump going South or worn cranks bearings if it isn't the 'easy' fix of a new sensor. Or possibly O-Ring around the pickup tube leaking but that requires the pan being dropped. Any other possible 'easy' fixes? I know I could run some thicker oil in it and who knows it may run for years but I want something mechanically sound not something with a bandaid on it. The dealership didn't seem to want any part of addressing the issue yesterday. I guess they figure someone will miss the issue and buy it. I'm not looking at pouring a lot of money into repairs. In the end I will probably just end up walking but maybe dealership will come around and fix it. I am the same person as the OP. Just realized this is a different account.
  16. Maybe try a new ignition coil? Heat can cause expansion and if there are any hairline fractures it can cause issues at operating temp. Only to be resolved once it cools down a little bit. Sounds similar to your problem. Might be worth a shot if it isn't too expensive or you know someone you can borrow one from.
  17. Yeah sorry haven't updated. Grease was on wheel side. Got CV axle replaced and tires rotated and no change. At this point I'm fearing something is going on with the diff. I will take you advice for checking the diff and post results. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
  18. No I haven't heard any clicking/clunking while turning but I have noticed on a couple of occasions I have the sensation of something clicking in the front end through the gas pedal but not while I was turning so maybe not related IDK. Usually while I'm driving straight at lower speeds. I'm gonna get it checked out to be sure. Hopefully it just needs to be cleaned and have a new boot installed then packed with grease.
  19. Actually might have found my issue. Was looking at front end and noticed drivers side cv axle shaft was black and had grease all over it where it had blown out. Passenger side shaft was clean. You guys think this is the likely source? Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
  20. Yeah I thought it was the hubs I have just had both replaced and it didn't go away. I will check out the ball joints however as the truck has 140k and has never had ball joints replaced to my knowledge. I'm not hopeful it is in the tires as I have owned many sets some wearing unevenly and have never heard any noise like this coming from tires. Sounds more mechanical in nature but maybe I will get lucky.
  21. As the title says I have a loud humming in the front end of my 09 silverado 4x4 which is at its worst between 45-55mph and upon deceleration. It seems to be coming from the front left side of the truck as the noise is not as audible when sitting on passenger side. It is not really that noticeable at other speeds. I chalked it up to wheel bearings and replaced both to no avail. I am going to have my tires rotated today to see if noise changes position. I have noticed scalloping on some of my tires but didn't attribute it to that because I have had worn tires before that have never made noise like this or this loud. It is a fairly high pitched hum/whiring noise. Tires are 285/65/18 bfg a/t 2s. I will post results after rotation today but do you think it could be a tire? If it is not a tire where do I got from here? CV axles or front diff? Could anything related to the braking system cause this?
