Could you find the Silverado wheel document for me? Im not ordering a sierra. Thanks for your help!

 

 

What about 2500 HD? There was ONE wheel that I could order in September was the 18" Chrome Aluminum PYR. I keep asking the dealer for the 20's and I get the same

 

run around that they are not in the dealership for me to buy or trade??? I will ask again tomorrow when I pick it up.

Here are the Silverado 1500, and Sierra 2500 and 3500's. I was advised by by dealer there is a "constraint" on the 2500 with the 20's and the diesel engines, so that could be why no orders with 20's on the 2500 are going in.

Orders as of late have been delayed. I am a Chevrolet dealer and the last factory order took 10 weeks.it's usually 6-8 customer was highly upset and there's nothing the dealer can do about it.it's all factory.

i just talked to my GM regional rep. there is a constraint on the 6.2 right now. they dont have enough to meet demand. just means its going to take longer.

Shouldn't the OP be able to get the order accepted and a tpw? (even if it's along way out?)

When I went to dealership to order my 2015 6.2 LTZ Z71 he told me to leave out the spray bedliner because it would hold up production. Well he must've known what he was talking about because a little over a month later my truck was in transit and delivered a week or so later. This was quick considering my dealership had no allocations.

Told me the same thing!

Ordered my 2015 GMC Sierra SLT 6.2L/8-Speed 3.23 rear on October 23, 2014. Spoke with GMC 3 weeks ago and they said the TPW was suppose to be this week, 12/8. Spoke to the rep last week, they pushed it out another week to 12/15. I feel your pain, as I am coming up on 2 months without the truck even being built. Dealer said that I would have in 8 weeks, which I knew would be tight. If I get it before x-mas I would be thrilled, but my expectations are very low at this point. This is a replacement truck that I am getting in place of my current 2014 vibrator. Just want a truck that runs smooth for at least the next 15 years of ownership!

Man, it sounds like no one REALLY knows for sure whats on hold and whats not and when and why what trucks get built and when and why certain trucks take forever! Get it together GM.

 

Im waiting to hear back from my dealer as I have requested they look into my truck and find out exaclty what is going on, whats holding it up and when we can expect it to be built.

Every time I have ordered a vehicle the standard line has always been 6-8 weeks for delivery. Which I beleive your still in that window. Once that thing gets thrown on the assembly line its built and done within a day or two, then maybe sits a week to ship.

 

I wouldnt be getting to worried at this point. The only thing your going to contend with right now, is since its new there could be a back log, black friday/holiday shopping getting in the way, and the fact that during holidays plants arent going to be operating at 100%. Also keep in mind orders arent necessarily first in first out. Dealer initial allocation comes into play, pre orders, and dealer allotment.

Got an update on my build. The order has been accepted and the build date is set for 12/22/14. Looks like i wont be getting this truck before the new year. Looks to be about 8-10 weeks from order. At least, the order has now been accepted though.

 

Here's to hoping January brings good deals and incentives!

From what I've read on here it's 8-10 weeks from being accepted. You should get it sometime in January I would think.

    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
    • you might read through the info on gmupfitter.com for your truck, to find a good power source.
    • Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally. 
    • Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
