Any ideas on how to unlock a locked g80? Today on patch of ice at stop light, started off and one rear wheel slipped, heard clunk and began moving. Now in a turn the rear seems to bind... stutter. It is almost the same sensation you get in 4WD on dry pavement, Any suggestions. 2008 silverado, 30k miles 4wd crew cab 1/2 ton LTZ

  Love it! Reg Cab guys are a small minority. Most available trucks will be white, black or silver. Mine has been perfect so far. But I haul more stuff than people. Reg Cab/Standard Bed are easier to park. No issues with the 2.7L after 50K, however I change the oil every 3K because of the turbo and direct injection.

  As you know transmission fluid is or acts like hydraulic fluid. I don’t think it expands much hot. Never really gave it much thought. I imagine you could check it without your vehicle running or warmed up as long as you knew it was full before hand. I was conditioned to do it one way, so that was that. Oil checking was always after cool down for drain back. But usually is done in my case because I live on a hill while getting gas. Even at home once knowing the oil is full you can check on a hill. Doing it in the same spot with the dipstick marked. All things considered there’s wiggle room that’s why there’s an add and full line. We won’t want to start out at the lowest line. Something Ive rarely experienced. Even back when I went extended driving 50K miles a year or more. That’s the interesting part of this thread when a normal phenomenon. Like checking fluids can turn into such a debate.
