Thanks, I’ve never had the audio/sounds not come back once I’ve turned the truck off and came back later. But as you said, it is aggravating and SHOULD NOT be this way. Maybe I’ve been more frustrated since the first time it happened was only 2 days after buying the truck brand new.
i have had 3 issues, the pcv fine oil separator failed at 60k, recently i had a turbo problem that was a clamp that attaches the exhaust to the turbo had come loose and turned and was stopping the actuator arm. other than that it likes to eat oil
That is an odd comment Banks would have about the volume given that the sight glass is there for the specific reason to allow for not only bringing the level to that range but to visually be able to check at any time that the diff has a sufficient level. I know its been commented that what GM claims is the volume required for the rear diff ends up falling short of what it actually takes if filling it to the bottom of the factory level plug, and the fact that GM ( actually the axle manufacturer ) is underfilling the diff at their factory below their own specs as mine was as well which has been a whole other issue and is leaving the oil down almost a quart low from full. As I read about the Banks cover instructions right on their webpage, they do say to go by the sight glass ( half way up the sight glass on level ground ) unless the vehicle has had the pinion angle changed due to a lift etc that throws off the factory pinion angle. I'll put it this way, if I installed a Banks cover on my own stock truck I would fill it half way up the window and then recheck after the truck has been driven and sat for hours while sitting on level ground to confirm the level.
