    THAT is damned expensive at 70k, I agree with the other fella some chain and an extra bolt hole on engine, weld other end to the frame.
  2. johnnyquick
    I agree that 70k seems low for them to be worn out but the torque motors do eat them. Likely you could change them yourself at home in the driveway on a weekend easy enough TBH.

    Are the mud flaps extenders onto the stockers?

    Purolator 1 is a great filter, I get mine on amazon. Check your spark plug wire carefully going to that cylinder and be sure it is pushed on securely to the plug.

    I never needed any brake service mode crap, I just did not turn on a any electronics at all during the procedure and I unplugged and replaced sensor that was hard to not damage the connector..and was the hardest part of the job. Bought the best pads I could (Bendix) ceramic and it was super easy and fast to do no worries just tackle the job, easier than the old style with these pins, no need to remove fluid either just back pads off slowly and enough to insert new ones. Cake walk.

    So, we were on a trip and truck was running great no issues and had put 1600 miles into the trip. Driving along and truck went into limp mode with a P2101, P0152, and a P0300 code. I had a Jet performance TB on it for about 40k and had sprayed cleaner into it and wiped it all out but did not remove it before trip, I also had cleaned the air filter and MAF sensor as well as changed the oil. P2101 or P02101 was referencing a dirty TB or TB Actuator, so I took it off and cleaned it til it shined like a mirror inside and out. Reset code and drove GREAT for about a day and a half then thru the code again, so I triple checked everything and was stressing out about driving home with trailer attached and it going into limp mode when on the freeway. So I ordered a low priced Amazon alternative TB as where I was there were none locally in stock nor at the GM dealer. It worked perfectly til we got home and now these 2 codes in the title came up and I reset em and they came back. Where do you guys think I should start? I can do most anything mechanically but don't want to start buying parts. I looked up the codes of course and the likley culprits but I know there are some GM techs on here that may have a better gauge on things than a Google search or GMcodes.com ..lol TIA Gents

    I say forget the cute and fun stuff like longer ranges and try and build engines that stay together.

    Me neither no new GM's for me except the handbuilt engines in the Escalade V and the higher end Vettes for a long while

    Thanks, I do have the Z71 factory skid plates but that plastic piece is crap and I do have that to replace. Thanks!
  13. johnnyquick
    These look excellent for the $
  14. johnnyquick
    Are these if you don't have the Z71 package or overall better and stronger coverages? I know that big plastic piece under the front of the engine is BS what one are you guys replacing that one with? TIA

    Still running mine since Oct 2020 when I bought the truck, seems just fine still.
  16. johnnyquick
    Do you have a module already that is not working or are you looking to get one to use?
  17. johnnyquick
    I found (through trial and error. ) that using 2 trim removal tools in tandem can alleviate the broken clips most of the time, I use one to get things started and leave it in place after pushing it in pretty far and then work the other around as each clip pops out.

    Link to the product and install video, USUALLY it seems that you have to push the button to the off position each time you start the vehicle. This eliminates that annoyance.https://www.autostopeliminator.com/products/2019-silverado-autostop-eliminator

    I would swap out for the Pulsar LT, I have never had an issue in 5 years plus as stated above and am quite pleased with it and you could return it as well if you still get issues. Best of luck with it as I know all the computer gadget crap is no fun at all. This was a 2 second search you may find a better deal still, they even are in the classies on here sometimes https://www.ebay.com/itm/358231525325?_skw=Range+Pulsar+LT+GM+5.3&itmmeta=01KHT1EHCZDYF1BPWNREBQ0PBZ&hash=item53684347cd:g:WLEAAeSwstJpldJG&itmprp=enc%3AAQALAAAA8GfYFPkwiKCW4ZNSs2u11xBWI772XeSy3kWIrakzXA82GSL02zPWpnuntVY%2BkCDhofROLTu1hBoc8IHbnpTA0ucAGm8K0wj%2FFgUFbIGg0p1oaR%2FJJkyljOC4UkXD%2FQuNmNvgZNF7uF%2F8AIX%2FeX6VZHzoE%2BZzWMnANoBJYbqISKjFtUorXjlG72VaZO7lvJiD4tqaKahLNTpjUX1w1DJJ53LNAKFMJdcJg%2F5oPnmuuVKaGFRvt3lRHRxqF5xw7%2FdqwmW5BlsAXuDqnQKZg9NmoA1PVSJLZ%2ByI%2BjIepkLgnwpoWvBCMFWZoJG%2FBDxVQV8fWA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBM5pa6wY5n

    My guess is try shutting truck off after getting in it and restarting it will enable the start stop defeat action etc have you tried that? Just asking, not treating you like you are ignorant but a thought you may have missed.
  21. johnnyquick
    You can hear it as well if you have any type of exhaust mod, I also have a Pulsar on my 2020 since like 6000 miles and it has worked flawlessly, you can fine em on Ebay or marketplace used sometimes to save $$ if need be.

    Ordered Coverland, just at $300 with taxes etc on a Presidents day sale, I agree these seats suck I have the nice leather, heated and cooled etc but way too firm for a guy and gal with zero extra padding. Hoping these help, wifeys rig is a 2023 Escalade V so she won't even ride in this thing... Will keep ya posted on them it says Friday delivery and a 10 year warranty.

    The throttle by wire DOES seem to have a hefty lag built into it, I run my throttle sensor at level 3 on the Pulsar LT and it feels GREAT 4 and 5 are too many tires squeeling !
  24. johnnyquick
    Be sure that you got all the air out when you replaced the sensor, check the voltage at the sensor both when cold and once it warms up and as stated above check for bad wiring, corroded connections etc.

    Take note OP was thankful for info and options.
