2011 Silverado Undercoating Peeling Off


Recommended Posts

Update #6

Have an appt this morning at dealer, because now there is a corrosion guy that makes decisions. Was already told by the General Manager that this guy has said GM is doing nothing because I live a block from the ocean, feel sorry for dealer with that kind of support.........I have the TSB ( service bulletin to repair ) PI1056E.......So it sounds like if you live within a few miles of the coast GM is saying.." good luck f**cker, thanks for your 55K"

Not sure anyone is reading these anymore, but I'll post the outcome for future "rusters" in need

 

Do you have a link or can you post a copy of the TSB P056E..? I have the same issue with a 2011 Sierra with 11,000 miles and have an active 12/month GM certified pre-owned warranty. Thanks.

Just FYI, I am dealing with this issue with my dealer now. He pulled the bulletin up on his system and I looked and it is now in version "F".

PI0564F

 

THat is the letter P, Letter I, 0564 and the letter F.

Mine is peeling too. How do I get it fixed? Warranty, correct?

c0boy,

 

Hello! I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing an issue with your vehicle. I cannot guarantee anything but I would be happy to work with your preferred dealership and resolve this issue. Please private message me referencing this thread if I can be of any assistance.

Give the bulletin # to the dealer and let him inspect it. If you are truly having this issue, there should be no reason for him to deny it. If you are still under your 3/36000 BtoB warranty, then GM should take care of it. If not, it might be a problem but I think they could still cover it since it is a known problem. Since your truck is a 2011, you likely are outside the BtoB warranty. Good luck.

    • Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.          
    • Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.  
    • I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
