**The K2 section of the forum now consists of one main 2014+ forum and three 2014+ sub-forums**

Please read this entire post and try to place your new topics in the correct main or sub-forums. Thanks!

 

2014+ Sub-Forums

2014+ Silverado & Sierra Issues, Troubleshooting, & Recalls/Service Bulletins

Gen V Small Block Engine, Drivetrain, & Exhaust

2014+ Silverado & Sierra Accessories & Modifications

 

*Before posting a new topic, asking these three questions will help you select the appropriate forum/sub-forum:

A) Is the subject any type of issue, problem, complaint, question, etc, about GM-made trucks/components (including any designs/defects/failures/flaws/etc) -or- the resolution of of these issues by DIY means, warranty work, TSB's, recalls, etc, -or- you're just having difficulty finding/operating a stock function/component..?

If yes, post in the 2014+ Silverado & Sierra Issues, Troubleshooting, & Recalls/Service Bulletins sub-forum.

If no, go to question B.

B) Is the subject dealing with 2014+ engines (including AFM, gas mileage/MPG, factory programming, aftermarket tuning), transmissions, drive-trains, exhausts -or- any accessories/modifications to the topics just listed (including air filters, intakes, tunes, headers, gears, mufflers, pipes, etc)..?

If yes, post in the Gen V Small Block Engine, Drivetrain, & Exhaust sub-forum.

If no, go to question C.

C) Is the subject about any accessories for or modifications to the stock truck (including adding/modifying any GM-brand or aftermarket accessories, as well as any perceived upgrade to the truck) not already covered in the Engine/Drivetrain/Exhaust sub-forum..?

If yes, post in the 2014+ Silverado & Sierra Accessories & Modifications sub-forum.

If no, post in the main 2014+ forum.

I prefer the old way... now we have to go to multiple boards to see posts. Either way.. not the end of the world... just prefer the old way.

 

I think one board for all 2014 - then put a special tag like "Issue" next the the post itself

By separating/grouping the major topics/subjects, it makes the specific type of information members are interested in easier to find/use/share. We had a poll open for two weeks and over 62% voted in favor of the K2 sub-forums. So we'll give them a try and see how it goes...

 

For those interested in statistics, since 1/1/14, over 24% of K2 forum topics have involved interior/exterior accessories & mods (this % does not include engine/drivetrain/exhaust accessories & mods).

Issues & complaints made up the second largest category with 21% of K2 forum topics.

All the moved & locked posts are destroying the flow of the forum. Sub forums always die a slow death as no one reads sub forums. Too many clicking & searching.T

 

Totally disagree. Now, we don't sort and search topic upon topic of unrelated information. Now, if you want 2014+ engine topics, accessories, etc, just go there. Way more organized.

 

Awesome work Moto. Reminds me of a time when I suggested something similar a while back and you were the one that said it would be way to much work. Way to step up and handle that work

I belong to a watch forum with no direction no subs or even headers. I hate spending an hour scrolling to find something. Most forums have topics and subs. This will work just fine and will be sorted out better as time goes on.

No need to go to 4 places, just use the filter "New since last visit". This format is working on other sites well.

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
