  1. Thank you DenaliSS! Been looking for the damn installation sheet for 3 days! I've done a lot of brakes but just wasn't sure if there any weird bleed procedures or what I needed to do with the unused electronic sensor. I got my kit from shopchevyparts.com and the box was busted all to pieces and I'm honestly not 100% certain I have all the hardware since it was all just kind of laying out on my porch after delivery. Also, not even certain this is genuine or if it's counterfeit. The only piece of paper in the box looked like it had been photocopied at a high school library in 1994. Guess we gonna send it and find out!
  2. I know this is an old post but since GM offers the 3.0 Duramax with 3.73's and someone like me who has a 6.2 with 3.42's and has gone up to 35's, going to 3.73's would make up for the tire size difference. (weight and wind resistance is a different story) but at least when towing my 10,000lb toy hauler I'd be slightly better off than where I am today. I'd rather go all the way to a 4.10 but with 3.73's my speedo would be extremely close and I could ditch the Hypertech inline corrector. Thoughts?
  3. I just ordered my High Country in June and you can get the MAX Trailer package, with ALL the cameras, Trailering mirrors, etc. The only thing you basically can't get is the Z-71 package which was NBD for me since I'm having SCA add a lift/tires/wheels, that will have skid plates.
  4. I've been searching for about an hour and I've decided to just ask: Had a new engine put in my truck due to AFM/DOD failure that went catastrophic. (truck is for sale if anyone is interested in a cherry 2014 with a new GM Long Block 6.2 with 100,000mi warranty) Everything worked fine, then I hauled my ranger about 90 miles round trip on my 16ft trailer. After unhooking the trailer I got a "service park assist" and now none of my sensors front or rear will work. However, they worked the whole time prior to and during pulling the trailer. I drove the truck about 700 miles after the new engine with no issues after putting the new engine in before hooking up to a trailer. So, I don't think during the engine install any harness was damaged or affected. ALSO, occasionally if I shut my truck off and turn it back on within a short period the "Service Stabilitrack" message will flash up and go away? I've seen that once or twice before in the past year but now it seems to popping up more often? Is there a chance a dead short in the trailer wiring could have backfed into the electrical and caused issues? I only ask this because of the timing AND the trailer is brand new and within a few days of owning it (prior to engine replacement) I blew a fuse for the RT turn signal and brake light. I kept forgetting about so I pulled it several times including this most recent time without the turn signal and the tail lamp. After this last time I did replace the fuse however I have not pulled my trailer since. Part of me wonders if they're related but also, I pulled the trailer for 3 months with no parking sensor issue at all. Could I have a bad trailer module on the truck? Is it tied into the sensors at all? Any feed back would be appreciated, thanks!
  5. So my 2014 Silverado is getting a new GM long block installed after failing at 107k. The shop said the new engine came with a flywheel that is every so slightly different and the bolt holes don't quite line up. So, without consulting with me they just re-used the old flywheel and I guess are sending the new flywheel back as part of the core return? My question is was there a flywheel update and as long as the old flywheel was in good condition could this cause an issue? I guess I'm assuming if the new engine came with a new flywheel that is slightly different the new flywheel should be used. The dipstick at the front desk is assuring me it's ok and the warranty will still be honored. What's everyones thoughts and could someone put me in touch with a GM tech that would know if there's any reason I should be concerned? thanks
  6. Anyone able to get ahold of a remanufactured 6.2 for a 2014 Silverado? At 107,000 miles mine had a valve keeper break (suspected) and during diag something fell down into the oil pan and shot through the pan and part of the block. Shop in Decatur, AL is saying only option is brand new from GM? Also, when’s the class action lawsuit. I’m the 4th person in my group of friends that’s had a 6.2 completely fall apart on them.

  7. How do I check for the passive exhaust valve?
  8. I have a Borla cat back exhaust and the AFM/DOD disabled. However it does sound like to me that it's coming from the back half of the truck. But if its a driveline issue somewhere I think those always sound like they are behind me probably just due to the properties of sound dynamics and that I hear it a lot more over 30mph but at steady, low rpm cruising, or when lightly accelerating out of a turn.
  9. My 2014 started doing this about 10,000 miles ago. Identical. I've been searching and the intenet for months and finally found this thread! Did anyone find out what the fix is? Isee the thread about the 8 speed transmission but that issue doesn't seem quite like what us on this thread are experiencing. Man I hope someone responds with "dude your heat shield is just vibrating off the bottom of the cab!" I also, have another odd noise that sounds like a wheel bearing hum but I cannot get any play out of the front wheels and I did change one hub already for another reason. Anyway, any help or incite would be greatly appreciated.
  10. I also out of the blue got a "service front camera" message and all functions associated are disabled. (collision alert, lane assist) I don't want to pay $400 for the camera myself either and what if that's not even the problem. Did anyone find any solutions or things to check before biting the bullet?
