I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Finally finished installing the charging cradle for my Sony Z3 Compact phone. This phone has a magnetic charging connector on its side, and Brodit's cradle neatly uses this to charge while on the go. I attached it to Panavise's bracket that's made for the K2, which attaches to one of the OEM bolts in the IP.

Keeps my phone charged without a dedicated charging cable, and keeps it secure -- no more stashing it awkwardly in a cupholder. Ran the cables behind the I05 screen, behind the glovebox, and to the passenger side fuse block, where I used an MTR fuse tap from eBay to feed power. Works great, since I can just simply slide the phone in and out as needed, but I plan on also adding some NFC tags to the holder or dash to allow me to quickly turn BT on/off or load certain apps (i.e. Waze) when jumping in and out of the truck.


Also started installing a second pair of OEM LED bed lights. Have the passenger side one mounted and cables run; will probably slowly get to the driver's side lamp and tap into wiring as time allows this week.

When I got my truck someone had already tinted the taillights and I can hardly see to back up at night. The lights look good but they are painted. I wonder if these would help my situation? I searched Amazon and there are different versions of Cree 50 watt backup lights. What did you wind up getting?

Thanks,

Eddie

Eddie, see my third post on page 334 of this thread. I added a photo and link of what I bought.

When you start adding lift kits and modding it yourself you're still building it from a stock truck. Now if you go out and buy the truck lifted, tuned, etc. then you bought it that way. Hence, "Built Not Bought"

You don't get it cus you don't see the full picture. That's what a 2wt trim looks like and that's how my 2wt trim truck looks like. I use this decal because all the parts on this truck I installed them myself, even made custom parts for stuff to work. That's what the sticker refers to, obviously not meant like I built the truck like I build cabinets.

      Replacing 2.7L on 2021 Silverado with 2023 2.7L

      I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
