How many Michiganders do we have here?

It seems that every time BgBlkAvalanche sees my truck on I-96, (Or 275 last Friday) it needs washing.  Well, that problem just got fixed.  Last Friday I drove to Detroit, we loaded the contents of our two offices into the Av, and moved our project to Lansing.  Less traffic, free parking, not driving into the sun, and no city tax.  I also now have a good excuse for a dirty truck - heading west from home means 4 miles of unpaved road each way.

 

BTW, congrats SiiLT for getting into GMI, er, Kettering University.  That's a great school.  Graduates earn at least $5K more a year to start than those from other schools because of their years of co-op work experience.  Best of luck in finding a co-op employer.

One here from Lapeer County, just over the northern Macomb border. I've been posting my novel in the 1500 truck section, at the rate it's going I might not have a truck if they don't figure out what's wrong.

 

Just wanted to say hi to all my neighbors! :thumbs:

Hey Jakemi..........we're neighbors.......I'm in Almont.

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

 

Just for the record, since my last post here, the dealership bought my truck back and now I have an 05. So glad that mess is over.

I was starting to wonder if there was any yoopers here. I'm from Marquette, but now live in WA cause of the Air Force. I hope to make it back to MI when I get out. :cheers:

    • I am having similar issues.. 08, 4.8L granted I did had a fender bender and minor damage up front passenger side but I don’t think it had anything to do with it.. I had the high and low pressure checked and my fan for my radiator keeps coming on.. replaced the pressure switch and don’t want to keep throwing parts at it. I did have some minor problems here and there like on long road trips sometimes the ac would get a little warm and then on the highway as soon as I give it a little gas or get a little heavier on the petal it started running cooler. Never had an issue with the ac besides the here and there.. but I also started having issues when I fuel up now it takes a bit to start ( super embarrassing) it runs fine and once started ( only happens after fueling up) starts fine any other time. Could they be related?
    • Spent a small fortune on fuel this weekend.   $6.69 diesel, 18 gallons of that. $6.99 92-octane ethanol free, 10 gallons of that for yard machines $5.59 87-octane for one of the cars, 11 gallons.   $250+ and I didn't even get a tug.   Hormuz ain't Hormuzin again, did not see that coming...LOL
    • Appreciate the advice. I've watched multiple videos. Most showing the most complex for those that have a center console, to one that showed maybe 2 pieces of trim being removed, like 6 screws, pulling back the screen and switch assembly, and installing the inline module. And this was a new/newer Silverado. That didn't look too bad. All the others show alot of trim pieces that need to be removed. I've broken those kind of tabs/clips on my C8 Corvette trying to get to the battery, and that was a lot less clips than what I think is involved here after watching multiple videos and looking at my dash today. I have one on the way. Called a reputable stereo place about installing it and got a "minimum" price of $175. Ouch! Looking forward to seeing what the instructions have to say.
    • Hard to say what the issue might be. Anything from the ability to cool the AC condenser up front, to blend door issues in the HVAC unit, to refrigerant charge, to compressor issues or issues in the lines.   Report back what the techs find on the 29th.   GM has service publications which list acceptable vent temperatures and AC pressures at given ambient temps and humidity. They probably won't touch the system if it's operating within those ranges.   I'm also surprised to hear your 2024 with the L8T is still using R134a? I was pretty sure the HD's had switched to the new refrigerant around 2020.
