Trying to figure out what gear ratio the truck I have has. I did the QR decode but it doesn't show the gear ratio.

 

I have a 2018 LTZ Crew cab with the 6.2l .

 

How do I get the full RPO list for my truck ?

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.   http://www.gmfleetorderguide.com/NASApp/domestic/prod

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

Not all codes are options but are broadcast codes used to determine the proper parts that went into assembly of the vehicles.  That's the whole reason behind that list, parts.  Some items that changed from vehicle to vehicle are emission components, spring rate components, etc.

You can send a message to [email protected] with your VIN and they will send back a build sheet.  I got one for my 2015 Silverado and was glad I did. Nowhere on the papers when I bought it did it say anything about being an All Star edition, but my build sheet listed it as the package that I have.

I sent a message on Sunday after reading this forum.
I had a reply on Monday!
Seems I have an All-Star package and Z71 suspension.
I really got lucky on my used 2017 Silverado purchase, the build sheet is really long.
Great response from Chevrolet media.

This only works if you have an American spec'd truck.  They said my truck is built with Canada base equipment and forwarded my email to them.  The Canadian team responded, call my local dealer or visit the heritage website.  Yup, big help.

Always like to learn something new about GM trucks, so what is the Heritage Website?

Thanks for the welcome!  The GM Heritage Centre is GM's archives

https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/ They will send you a printed build sheet for a fee and several days wait. The sad thing is I used to provide support to GM and had access to this information direct.

Stumbled across this thread and had to add, my 18 does not have a sticker in the glove box, or anywhere else for that matter, of RPO codes. I asked my local dealer for a build sheet and they printed me off one but the info I am looking for is not there.

2018 Silverado 1500 All Start Edition Crew 4X4... the hitch on the truck, is it a class 4 or a class 3?

Anyone?

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!

      Brake Pad Warning Message

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

      Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.

      Welcome to the Forum! Always post the code definitions along with the codes. there are over 18000 possible codes, no one remembers them all and most will skip over your post rather than look them up
