Im going with the 4" TB/AT4 BDS 1805 lift kit and Im trying to decide between a Fox 2.0 and Eibach Pro 2.0. Also just saw the Halo/Elka's that look nice. For some reason the Trail Boss/AT4 1805 kit is only listed with the Fox 2.5 coilovers but the standard trim 6" BDS 1801(FSR) offers the Fox 2.0 snap ring coilover. Anyone know why the TB/AT4 doesnt offer the 2.0's? Should be almost identical lift. I think the Fox coils on the 1801 kit dont require a spacer and the Eibach would? Would that factor into the decision? Thanks

2023 AT4X not listed in GM Order Guide
n8huntsman replied to n8huntsman's topic in Future GM News & Rumors
I saw that high clearance bumper. Looks promising. Hopefully it gets added for 2023. Think Super Cruise is too much to hope for? I know it's an off-road truck but realistically you know they see more freeway than dirt. -
Ive got a 2019 AT4 but thinking of upgrading in the next year or so. I would really like Super Cruise but I also need the extra couple inches of ground clearance. Id prefer the AT4 or AT4X but not sure that it will offer super cruise in the near future. Has anyone on here lifted a Super Cruise vehicle yet? I imagine it would wreak havoc on the calibration. I've read issues with the older ACC vehicles and lifts. Probably too early to know that but thought Id ask... Thanks

I use the GM order guide quite a bit to see the differences between models and trims. Wanted to see if there were any plans to add Super Cruise to the Sierra AT4 for 2023 and noticed that the AT4X (4SG) is not listed like it is for 2022. ZR2 Silverado is shown for both years. Any thoughts on why this is? I have found the guide to very accurate and up to date on what is and will be available. 2022 - https://www.gmfleetorderguide.com/N...vehicleID=22364§ion=oi_def&page=6&butID=3 2023 - https://www.gmfleetorderguide.com/N...vehicleID=22449§ion=oi_def&page=1&butID=3

Well... This window didn't even last through the frigid cold California winter this time. Window number 3 Already leaking in this last rain storm!
-
Here are my numbers on the window. Also, the frame measured about .160" from the glass to the plastic frame.
-
Just looked over my paperwork from the window installed last week. It is the new part number 84944319. The frame might be a bit thicker but without measuring the old one with a caliper I can't be sure. If anyone measures theirs I can measure mine too ?
-
Out of curiosity I charted the number of pages of posts by month to see if a trend is forming. My leaks were all after washing, not rain because I'm in California. But still not exactly scientific because obviously leaks are gonna be noticed more in the wet months so impossible to say it's temperature related... Still interesting. We'll see if there is another massive spike in Jan/Feb.

My second window failed after exactly one year, to the day. I noticed after washing it both times. This time was shortly after our first frost. Thermal cycling maybe? Took about 9 days to replace with another new window. I took it to a different dealer this time. They did a much better job but unfortunately the damage had already been done by the first dealer. However, as soon as I opened the door I immediately heard the sound of the pressure equalization flapper valve between the cap and bed. Took a peak in there and guess what! It was dislodged again lying between the bed and cab just like last time. Took them over a month to get the part last time and a week to install it. This time they ordered the part in about a week and we'll see how long the install takes. They have to remove the bed to get to it apparently. I've got a case open with GM waiting to see if theyll do a buy back. I had the caulk job done, and now two windows so that should count as 3 repairs for the same issue. If they don't do something to satisfy me I'll investigate the lemon law route because I have zero faith that this new window wont be leaking come next November.
-
My second window is leaking again. Same time of year that it happened last year. I'm thinking a thermal expansion issue. We were over 100 two weeks ago and low 30's over night last week. Got a little rain and sure enough, it's dripping again with visible cracks in the frame.

V807 Infotainment Update

Did yours pop out completely like mine did? (Video here: ) How long did you have to wait for yours to come in? While my glass came in remarkably quick, I am still waiting for the vents to come in!

My FUYAO replacement which does not leak (yet) says 43R-000072
-
My replacement is a fuyao. Still not sure how I got it so fast compared to some on here. Maybe someone else was waiting for one and they mixed us up? I wouldn’t put anything past them. No leaks yet but I’m thinking I might need to take out the truck and flex it a little. To test the theory I can leak test before and after. It is an at4 after all...

My truck has never been to a car wash. Only done by me, every two weeks with a foam sprayer, not a pressure washer, not even a hose nozzle on full blast, just a rinse
-
This is the part that was installed in my truck per the invoice. The website doesn’t say anything about being back ordered. https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-parts/gm-sliding-glass-84569182 not sure why the dealer would have trouble getting it.

More photos: #1 - Some sort of glue or something smudged all over the side #2 - Notice how the gap is uneven, spoiler touching the glass on the right side but not the left. Messy rear window smudge, still has suction cup marks Tiny bit of a gap on the right but then the spoiler seems to dip down to the point where it touches the glass Spoiler looks a little deformed just to the right of the slide, just above the glass

Update: Got my truck back today with the replaced rear window. Problem 1 - Initially told it would be done by 3 yesterday so I said, "If it'll be done before 5 just give me a lift to work and pick me up when its done." Then he said... well... it might not be done so we better get you a rental. He called me at 3 yesterday and said it was done and that i could pick it up. I said id drop off the rental and come right over. 15 minutes later he calls back to say its not actually done because the glue needs to dry overnight. Problem 2 - I immediately noticed how filthy it was. They didn't even make an effort to clean the rear window or surrounding area that was worked on. It wasn't spotless going in but definitely came back filthy. I looked down between the bed and cab and there was a huge strip of the old glue sitting on my exhaust waiting to fry. Problem 3 - I could still see the messy caulk job on the top seam. I figured with a whole new window, the glue would look perfect. Problem 4 - There is a quarter inch gap between the spoiler and the glass on the left side. About midway across it goes from a gap to line to line. Spoiler is actually touching the glass above the slider and the right side. Looks like the spoiler is jacked up. Problem 5 - Below the glass there are scratches, presumably from a careless job cutting the old glue with a blade. It almost looks as though they tried to hide it with touch up paint. Problem 6 - Icing on the cake! I opened one of the doors and heard a tink-tink sound come from between the bed and cab. I assumed something was hanging in there. When I looked I saw the left pressure equalizing vent contraption hanging out. Its resting against the bed so when I open a door, it sucks it into place, making the first tink sound then falls back against the bed making the second sound. They must have pressed too hard putting the rear seat padding back in and popped it out. Of course you can't reach it to put it back in. I got the service adviser and showed him. He went to talk to the mechanic and came back and said there was no way they could have done that but that they'd fix it under warranty. They need to order a new part he said. I betting it would pop back in but they didn't even want to try. I never noticed the defogging strips being so noticeable on my old window but I never paid much attention. The giant vertical gold bands are kinda ugly. Is this what the original one looked like? Overall, very disappointed in the workmanship on my new truck. You would think for what I paid they'd take a little better care of it. Not sure what to do from here... New video.mp4

2 months!? My dealer here in so cal ordered mine about 10 days ago. It was back ordered but I got a call a week later saying it was in. Scheduled the install for this morning but then they cancelled because they said they never got confirmation from their outsourced installer. Now it's looking like it might be going in later this week. We'll see!

Just to add my story to this already too long of a thread.... Build date of Feb. 2019. Noticed a leak about a month ago when I washed my truck. Took it in and they caulked the window. You could see some of the caulk if you looked hard enough but it wasn't too bad. Still frustrating. They gave me a ride back to work when I dropped it off. Then forgot to notify me till 5:30 when it was done. They told me their shuttle was done for the day and basically said I was on my own to get a ride. Of course, like everyone else, that didn't fix it. I took it back last Thursday at 9:00 and told them I wanted a rental which they agreed to. They called around 3:00 and said come pick up the truck because they have to order a new rear window. Of course it's back ordered. So now I'm waiting with a leaky truck and lots of rain (relatively, I'm in California) in the forecast. Fortunately my headliner is black and I haven't noticed any staining.

What did you pay for your truck?
n8huntsman replied to fishingtruck's topic in 2019-2026 Silverado 1500 & Sierra 1500
Time to update my signature! Finally found pricing that worked for me. Last day of February I scored my AT4 with everything I wanted (White, Crew Cab, 6.2L, AT4 Premium, Sunroof, Duratrac's, and Technology Package). It also had the "Off-Road Performance Package" which with the other stuff it already had adds an intake and exhaust. Wasn't on my "needs" list but I guess it's a nice bonus, just added a little cost. MSRP was $65,850. Sale Price $59,580 MFR. Rebate $4,500 Net cost before B.S. - $55,080 (16.35% off) They then got me for $600 delivery from Utah to Cali, $494 for garbage protection package (they would not waive it), $399 doc fee, plus tax and licensing of course. The best rate they could get me was 5.39% even with an 806 score. There is verbiage stating I can't pay it off for 6 months. Frontwave credit union can get me 3.49%. I'll go that route ASAP! All in all, I feel pretty good about it, despite the protection package and high interest rate. Prices seemed to have ticked back up March 1. -

Frontwave, previously Pacific Marine had decent rates when we bought my wife's Escalade. The best part is we can make the payment with our Citi Double Cash card giving us an extra 2% cash back when we payoff the statement balance which we make sure to do every month otherwise it would cost a fortune. DO NOT use this tactic if you're not disciplined with your cards! They did not require us to be members before quoting us a rate. https://www.frontwavecu.com/Resources/Help/Rates/Current-Rates/Loan-Rates
