Add me as the latest member of the no start club. It has happened the last 4 days but I have been able to get it to catch. This morning it was -9 and it wouldn't go.

So the updates were all done ASAP this morning at my local GM dealer.   And the update #13257 covered this defect as a reprogram. "BCM Communication Error". I figure it's to do with an engine run si

tell your dealer to call gm tach, and they will give your tech a different pt# for a different

starter. i posted the new starter # and picture a few weeks ago, no problems since the swap.

i work for a chevy dealer and i was just as pissed off as any of you guys, but this fix works !!

DO NOT ORDER THE STARTER LISTED IN THE PARTS CATALOG !! you will get the same

thing as what you have now. good luck with it. ray

A tad unsettling considered our entire trucks are built in Mexico haha

My '06 Silverado and '09 Impala are both built in Canada. No starter problem with either one to date. Nothing wrong yet with the starter on my 2013 Sonic built in the US either.

I bought my brand new Silverado a week ago and it hasn't started two out of the six days that I have had it. I took it to the local dealership for them to maintenance it and since it has warmed up here in Iowa in the last couple of days they are saying they cant fix anything on it. The lady at the dealership gave me a print out off of GM's site showing that they are aware of a engine complications in ambient temperatures and that they are replacing the starter in the trucks, but for some reason they will not fix my vehicle. For the price I paid and considering this is "the truck of the year" I expect it to start at ALL times regardless if it is -25 or 10 outside .This is the second truck I have had problems with in the last six months, I had to have the engine rebuilt on my 2011 Silverado due to the AFM. I'm not having any luck with these trucks at all!

The dealer told me today that they needed to order a starter for my 2014 and I asked for the part number.they ordered and they told me 12655055 (thanks Maliburay55).

 

Bad news is they wont get the starter until middle of next week. Good news is they sent me home in a 2014 Silverado as a loaner and apologized for the inconvenience.

Maliburay55, thanks for that info!

 

I'm having the same issue as being described by the OP and others. Dealer still has my truck overnight to do a cold start in the morning. I'm hoping it fails just so they can continue diagnosing and don't give me back a bad truck. If it fails and they continue to work on it, I'll recommend they replace with this part number. Thanks!

 

Here's my thread if interested:

This is what the dealer gave me. It was to warm to start now so i got screwed no fix. I did call the Chevy customer support number and open a case file. They had not heard anything about the trucks not starting when its cold. post-128805-0-34735600-1394203604_thumb.jpgpost-128805-0-86239100-1394203617_thumb.jpg

I got my truck back yesterday too. It started no problem for the dealer. They reprogrammed the BCU and gave the truck back to me.

I would call them on that as BS! I saw the same PIE paper as you linked when I had my truck in at the dealer. Sounds like their customer service is either not informed or just lazy. Good luck.

If they told you that,they lied and you should tell them that and take your business elsewhere.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?

      Some Assembly is Required

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that?

      Future GMC Jimmy

      By revrnd · Posted

      What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way too big headlights (similar to a previous non-Wrangler SUV) should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crossing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...
