I want to get an after market exhaust but not sure if I would like to v-4 mode sound. I have a 2010 Sierra with 5.3 6 Speed. Any help/suggestions is appciated

Well, if you go with a Corsa, you will have no drone, and minimal to no change in sound from V8 to V4

 

Would not mind that, however I cannot seem to find any dealers in my area.

I went with a Gibson system. At first the afm didn't really bother me, sounded wierd but not horrible, but after a few days I just turned it off, just couldn't handle it anymore. I have tried out speeds up to 85 and have experienced no drone whatsoever.

I have a 2010 All terrain sierra w/5.3 1300 miles on it and I put the Cherry bomb preformace muffler on with the stock exhaust and tailpipe, sounds great and improved HP. but I to wonder about the V4 mode :thumbs: I like the idea of the fuel savings but not sure how long I will be able to take the 4cyl stubble, V4 just doesn't sound good. Might have to shut it off.

I have true dual 12 inch glass packs on my rig. No drone at all! You can definitely tell when it kicks back and forth from 4 cylinder to V8, but nothing a little music can't fix

Remember that it is cheaper to turn AFM off (with a custom PCM tune thrown in for free :( ) than it is to upgrade to Corsa.

      2007 Silverado classic Cooling fan running

      By Mistycool · Posted

      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.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Atlas · Posted

      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.
