Gmpp Cai Emmissions


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was looking at the GMPP CAI for my truck and was wondering if any of you that have one have had issues with smog checks since this is replaces the OEM airbox.

On the OEM airbox lid there is a sticker that shows vehicle year and emmissions adjustments (or something to that effect). I think K&N and AEM come with a CARB

sticker with their CAI units for Calif. apps. I was at a GM dealer and the parts guy said there was a sticker that you could order for the GMPP unit (I didn't get the

part#) for $27 :P

The sticker you order is just a duplicate replacement for the one that is on the OEM airbox. I carefully peeled my original off and transfered it to another spot on the front clip cover to the left of the hood latch. I did have to use some adhesive to get get it stuck on good and I check it every once in a while.

Thats a good option, Its too bad it doesnt come with it the kit.

That wouldn't be possible since the sticker is unique to each truck I believe. Unless you mean they should include the duplicate sticker order in the price of the kit in the first place, ...I agree with that.

    • Talk about throwing people for a loop! The newer Jeep 4-cylinders (2018+, "Hurricane" engine) make people think they're hallucinating when checking the oil. A proper oil check, described in the owner's manual, is exactly 5 minutes after shutdown of a fully warm engine. Not before 5 minutes. Not when the engine is cold. You have to take a reading when the recirculation in the turbo and top engine has drained down, but not completely empty.   When those engines are stone-cold, the dipstick reads almost 1.5 quarts overfull. When they're warm right after shutdown, the stick may read almost empty..   If you change the oil and dump out 5 quarts of dirty oil including changing the filter, and refill with 5 quarts, this really can mess with your head if you check the oil later on and don't know what you're looking at.

    • Go for the 10-spd. I have a 2024 3/4 ton and 1 ton dually. We are now at over 100k miles between the two. The 3/4 ton doesn't tow as much and I have had zero issues. The 1 ton tows a couple times a week, 10-16k depending on the machine I am moving. Both trucks are used for construction and also spend time at the farm, have been great. Had an issue with the 1 ton and GM replaced the valve body in the transmission, it was down for 3 weeks which sucked, but it was all covered. It tows great and I really like the 6.6 L8T. Maintenance has been easy, I do all oil and fluid changes myself. The front end is greasible, so make sure you keep everything lubed up.    On our 2018 3/4 ton with the 6.0 I just had to use our unlimited powertrain warranty. I thought the warranty would never actually pay, but once they saw the engine was spotless inside at 180k and the only issue was a failed camshaft bearing, they paid 12k for a new engine. Always thought those warranties were a scam, but if you are diligent about maintenance and keep track of your records, they are great. Many of the oil changes were self performed, but I had all the receipts from buying the oil and filters, and had a log with the mileage I changed it at. 
    • Alright so this one ended up being a different TSB that was not related to the transmission at all. It was the O2 sensor wire that got too close to the exhaust and melted. I guess the 5v reference wire melted, shorted out and caused about 200 codes to populate and the truck to go into limp mode.    https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2024/MC-10253570-0001.pdf
