Didn't  happen today but recently got my E85 tune from BBP and flashed it. I added a little over 8 gal of E85 to the few gal of 93 octane that was left in the tank to see if the sensor was working. After about 7 miles i could feel a change and the timing advance showed on my TorquePro app but the ethanol % wasn't working. I found a way to create custom PID code from a different forum that allows me to see ethanol %.

Hauled this precious cargo home for the first time from the NICU after 40 days!   Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

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.

Found an hour of free time yesterday and installed GM - Illuminated Door Sills. Love the way they look! Of course, made a how to video. The box didn't come with instructions and tried searching he

It looks like you've put a lot of love into this truck!  Are you thinking new truck or changing the look of this one?

Thinking about tinting the taillights and doing black wheels. Thoughts?

Everyone has black wheels, ever think about doing wheels with some color!? Any color wheel will go great with the black and white color scheme you have now!

I agree that black wheels would detract from the current look.  Tinted lights wouldn't enhance the look or function of your truck either, imo.  Nothing wrong with doing these mods but as Crazykid38 suggests, they are no longer special.    I would consider adding sidesteps to your truck if you are anxious to make a change.  I appreciate that you may not like the look but they will be welcomed by your younger, older or physically challenged passengers.  There are many different styles, including retractable, that will enhance the functional appeal of your truck.

New owner here, and I know it's nothing crazy, but I added a handful of things in the past week to my month old 'new-to-me' '16 CCSB.

-glass navigation screen protector -

.. thanks for the post.. bumped me to go ahead and install one of these also.. easy to install and looks great.. temp was only 3C so I fired up the heat and went for a drive just to make sure everything stuck ok.. not really any more glare than before.

Hey thanks man, also I saw somewhere your engine vanity cover job. The white painted cover you got. Love that, and it's actually on my list, just another non fuctional. But fun one.

Cheers!

how did you get the PID for Alcohol % to work on torque app

Pulled rear wheel well liners and rocker plugs and sprayed fluid film all up in there.

Some small upgrades.

Driver assist handle, back row Husky mat, black bow ties.

(And a quick spray at the car wash to get the winter road grime off.

Sold the LT headlights I got in a trade and broke even buying these bad boys now to sell the grill and buy the LTZ grill to match 2014 Silverado CrewCab to 2018 Silverado CrewCab ?

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
