What did you do with your truck/shop today

[Chris]

I'm going to guess it's an issue with corrosion in the sensor connectors, since the pickup has driven through a lot of water lately. But it could be a clockspring, computer, sensor, who knows. If the connections look good I'll get it scanned, I'm not going to throw parts at it.

Sounds like you need to buy a 3150 on amazon

This is a new one

 

 

 

That's a scary one.

 

 

 

I didn't do anything with mine today, but tomorrow I'm taking my calipers off, and running to Advance Auto to exchange them for new ones. They have the best deal in the area plus I have a $20 off coupon.

Check them good to make sure they give you the right ones. That place has been an epic FAIL around here the past few years. Great prices, but wow .... TERRIBLE service!

The one around here isn't very good either. I went to the one in Lewistown which isn't the best place in my opinion, but since I was going that way anyhow it made sense. I actually took my calipers off of the truck and with me so I could avoid the up front core charge. Cost me $103 with the $20 off coupon. Edited May 2, 2016 by Daryl Z71

Well dam looks like I need new tailgate for my 1994 Silverado IV spotted rust IV bin buying patst for this truck here and there and stock pilling them till I can afford to have a shop repaint it so far I got new bed skins new fenders 2inch cowl hood billit Chevy grille but still new alot more parts included a dam tailgate. I was on lmc's site and looked at tailgates and the OEM style is basically $700 and the repro is $149. What's your guys thoughts on repro endgates

[Conky Conky]

Dam I made alot of spelling mistakes in that post. Dam 40 of whiskey is doing it job I'd say.

Just rolled over 20k miles since taking ownership of the truck.

The beast is getting an oil change. Only took a 90 point turn to get it on the lift lol. I don't understand why stores don't match their online price. So instead I stood in autozone and ordered online for store pickup to save $20 on 10 gallons of oil. Just need to do the rebate to save another $50 and I'll be set.

It sucks. A Bosch battery is 25% off online only through pep boys, i get military discount at 10% in store only.

Wow - I'm looking at the structure of that canopy, and forgot you live in FL. That wouldn't last one winter up here! Must be 10x cheaper to build stuff down there. It's going to cost me almost $10k just to put up a circus tent to keep the rain off me ...

 

Yeah, I hear you guys on the store vs. internet pricing. That drives me nuts! Tried claiming a coupon code in person one time, and they told me no can do. I was pissed! Manager could tell, & ended up giving it to me as a one-time deal, since I spend so much money there. Lesson learned.

 

What's even worse, is when you order online to pickup in store ... and when you get there, they only have HALF your order! It's only 7 miles away from me, but this is MA - that's a 45 minute round-trip drive ONCE, never mind twice! I could be getting more important things done in that amount of time. You never know who you're going to get stuck behind on the way there either - could easily be an hour lost on one trip ...

I seem to be getting code P0401 daily now. My Edge saids it's EGR insufficient flow. Over 755,000 on the truck and it's never ran stronger.

Which truck is this? I only ask because I thought they did away with EGR valves for all trucks years ago...

Yeah we don't have winters here, we do however have hurricanes. That structure did get damaged in the last one we had, not major damage but a couple panels got bent up/came off if I remember right. Property actually has way more problems with vandals tagging the place, might sit down there one night and hope to scare the crap out of the punks doing it. Yeah going back and forth is a pain but I made sure they had 2 5 gallon buckets before I made the order. Would have went back if I'd had to though I can get to that autozone going through my neighborhood the long way. Worth it to save $70 total, pretty much a free 5 gallon bucket of oil.
