I stumbled on this website. It has the RPO codes and descriptions. Also has lots of other useful info for those wanting to order their trucks.

Here is the reference sites for Chevy and GMC just select which one you need. Once you click Chevy or GMC in the box at the top right lets you pick the models you need.

Interesting, the RPO codes for the L86 6.2 engine clearly read that, among other things, the engine is "E85 Max".

 

This coding is the same as what is referenced for the L83 5.3 and the 6 cyl engine. Those codes also state that, among other things, the engines are "E85 Max".

 

The inclusion of the "E85 Max" information for the 6.2 is at variance to everything else which is published about the 6.2. Anyone have insight as to why?

I'm new here and I'm not sure where to ask for help.

I have a 2004 GMC 1500 Sierra 2wd.

Extended cab, 5.3l v8, automatic.

The drivers bucket sags really bad. I feel like I'm going to have to look under the steering wheel to drive it.

My truck has not quite 56,000 miles on it.

It still has the original serpentine belt, spark plugs, disc pads, etc.

It has never had anything heavier than ice chest in the bed.

I need to get something to lift the rear of the bucket UP.

I had found a kit that installs between the floor and the bucket seat frame but I cant find it again.

Anyone have an inexpensive fix as I'm 63 and on disability.

Thank you for your time.

Not all the codes in my glove box are on that list?

I sent a PM to GM Customer Service with my email and VIN and they sent me a build sheet for my truck. It included the RPO codes that matter. There is also a web site where you can look up individual codes...

Visited the website that you posted, and still cannot locate a bunch of the codes for my truck. Is there a difference depending one when the truck was built in the model year? Just curious, not terribly worried, but just wondering why they would not have all the codes published.

Where did you send a PM to GM to get a build sheet? I just picked up a new 2015 Sierra SLT All Terrain 4X4 and it would be neat to have a build sheet. Is it a complete list?

Literally, send a PM to GM Customer Service...click on the link below and then "Send me a message". Yes, it is everything from my build sheet. Send them your name, email address and VIN...

Not sure if I am in the right place but I was curious if anyone knew a sight where I could type in a vin code to find out what dealership a truck is at? I have a membership to Carfax, tried that... it just came back "NEW CAR, CLEAN"... But what I am really wanting to know is what dealership has the vehicle.

      No Software Updates - Old Build

      By DaleB · Posted

      Hi all - my current truck is a 2022.5 1500 High Country 3.0. I bought the truck used last year. After doing some digging, I noticed that my truck's software is stuck on the original build from 2022. I have no available software updates. I talked to my dealer about this and they recommended not trying to force an update since the 36,000 mile warranty is expired. This is a big bummer since there have been many major releases since that have fixed small issues and improved speed/usability.   For reference, the current software build number is: full_gminfo37_gb-user 10 W158E-W164.4.2-QIH22B-563.3 158 release-keys Has anyone had a similar experience? Should I just forget about it and move on, or try a different dealer?

      Using zip ties but 2-3 they snap due to sharp edges. Just using a shoestring. Last longer. 🤣

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      I ordered the Snap On...waiting for it to come in later this week or early next week.   New front cover, new crank seal and new balancer are on. Water pump, pulley, fan, hoses, and plastics reinstalled. I can move forward knowing all my timing marks are dead on and the front engine is hopefully sealed better than it was. Take 2 with the water pump...trying high temp thread sealer on the lower bolts.   Rebuilt injector and new-new regulator is in, it looks like new. Top intake reassembled and all the bits are reconnected and snugged down.   Thinking about knock sensors again, I located both of mine and, there's your problem, Francis... The driver's side one is broke, plastic is bashed in, part of the wire is bare, and it appears to have been damaged like that for a long time. I saw the wire but didn't think anything of it. The knock sensor might not be my pulled timing issue, but it sure looks suspect. It must still be conducting, otherwise I'd expect a CEL. But perhaps with its sacred crystal inside exposed, jilted and dirty, maybe it's sending mixed signals. So I'm waiting for one of those and a new pigtail to come in. Pass side sensor looks good, except for the spark plug wire resting on it (!). The plug wires are healthy so it shouldn't be causing an issue, but I separated them and added zip ties to nearby looms to keep everything well apart.   So, I'm down to installing a knock sensor AND, oh, replacing the exhaust and cat. I actually think that's going to be fairly easy, it's all bolt-together, all new stuff from Walker is laid out on the shop floor ready to go. Hopefully have this thing on the road again for the weekend.   My luck? It will still be leaking oil, coolant, pulled timing, intermittent CEL for running rich, or it probably won't run at all -- because that's how this project has gone.   I've never worked on a vehicle so ...hurt? ...cursed? in my life. Everything has been effed with SO HARD, but I think...knock on wood...I've managed to undo all the backyard stuff and we're almost reset back to "just" an 80k mile, 30 year old Blazer.

      Would this CV Shaft be bad?

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      Yes. You need to check out that thing, and the hub further.
