I thought all the LS engines took the same filter? My buddy's 6.2 in his '10 Camaro takes the same filter as my 5.3 in the '07. 15k50 If I remember right.

 

Shots of Rumple before the oil change? I'm game. :D

I have a Gen 3. Yours is a Gen 4. And actually this filter goes to a 4.2L Trailblazer. Same thread and diameter as a Gen 3 LS, just longer

 

And I enjoy Baileys and Rumple in coffee and hot chocolate.

Ahh, 10-4.

 

Thought the block was the same right from the beginning. Shows what I know. Par for the course today - seems GM can't keep anything the same anymore, even year to year.

 

I'll take the 350 any day - at least I know when I grab a part for that one, it will fit. That one used the same parts for over 30 years. :)

In the shop today: Forget eye crispies, my eyes were crusted over when I woke up from the pain at 4am this morning and would you believe my 2 first cluster calls were for the same problem 03-04 cluster not shutting down with key out of ignition and killing battery. Told them I may not be able to do them today. I'm in serious need of visine.

Quit smoking the reefer and no visine is needed

Yesterday I received my little video screen microscope about 2 days late.

 

I think this is going to help my eyes a lot.

Today I popped the dent out of my hood from the duck that decided to commit suicide. It was such a nice day to...happy birthday...

 

Might as well get all the dings and dents fixed...it's only money.

Changed the oil in the truck.

 

And replaced the tubes in the tires for the wheelbarrow and garden cart so I can do mulch next weekend, maybe!!

Oil change for me is scheduled for Friday. Hopefully new exhaust for the car comes and I can do oil and exhaust on that too

Picked my truck up from the garage today, had to have the yearly state inspection completed.

This came up the other day on my truck. It's hyper flashing, but all my bulbs are in working condition or are they getting ready to go out?

Yup, this means it failed to flash 3 times in a row. Maybe good now but (burnt/broken ) filaments will tend to do this. Replace both since the other side is probably about to die too.

Just finished fluid changes in the front diff, rear diff, and t-case. Used all Amsoil. Went ahead and changed the rear diff gasket with a new Lubelocker. Original one looked good but I had it so I used it.

    • I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.
    • I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments
    • Looks like the entire state is burning. 😬
    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
