Def included with 2 year maint.?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just curious if anyone knows if def top off is included with gm's 2 year maint program. When I bought my 15 the dealer said it was included. I am sitting in the dealer for the first oil change and confirmed the top off of the def fluid. They said no it's not included. They stated they thought it was but gm wasn't re-imbursing the dealer for the fluid...so I'm out of luck.. I know this is minimal cost but....

I know the window sticker on my 2015 Silverado says it is included.

Contact gm customer care or the customer service people here.

I was never offered any at the dealers I got my oil changed At. Just buy some def for 20$ and forget about it

I hear ya kmgz... More of the point of it that's all. Don't advertise and promote something that you won't back. Don't get me wrong I'm happy with the truck and the free oil changes. I think gm was promoting it for sales though.

Out of curiosity where does it say DEF included? I don't remember seeing anything about def being included. Then again I bought my dmax in 2013

Topped off at my oil change but I keep a cube in my bed under the locked cover.

Typical gm customer service. Bought my own and filled it. Not worth the battle. Posted a question regarding service trailer message I am getting Gm jumped on it requesting vin number etc. to get the problem resolved. That was going on two months ago. Sent the info and nothing but crickets. They don't care. They got their money.

    • 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.
