Has anyone bought & installed the bracket gm23264893 before the lines Crack & the freon leaks out? If so does it come with instructions as where exactly to install it? I'm thinking just go ahead & fix it before a problem happens. Thanks in advance!

For those of you who added the bracket, can you talk us through whereabouts the brackets should be located. I tried finding it based off the sandyblog attachment, found the condenser (on the viewers

Thanks for the info guys. $10 preventative maintenance is ok with me. Shame it wasn't designed prior to but at least they acknowledged the problem and designed a fix.

Excellent info, I'm going to go zip tie mine together with about 50 zip ties and order bracket.

@TDT take some pics while you are at it.

After the Weather finally let up, I went out to investigate my AC lines and found out that mine have been updated to a new style that doesn't require the bracket. I don't have the muffler on the line and I don't have the hook in the line where they are cracking at.

I had my bracket replaced about 2 months after the first time they replaced the faulty line. So far it has been working all summer. Although it's no longer blowing anywhere near as cold as it did from day one.

Where would I look to see if I have this bracket? I cant seem to pinpoint it

 

Just follow the condenser line down to the A/C compressor.

I did not see a bracket, but my line doesn't have any muffler.

My Silverado is a June 2015 build. May install one anyway.

When was your Silverado built?

So which line do you have installed now? The one with a muffler or the one without?

My dealer took my 2014 GMC Sierra in without an appointment, gave me a Cadilac STS loaner (blah), and fixed the a/c, recharge, and new bracket. I came prepared with a print out of the known issue and the bracket that needed to be installed. So they gave me no bull shit. While it was there they did my inspection for no charge.

The jury is still out on whether it blows as cold as before. I say no, my wife says yes.

Thank you for the information I'm heading to the dealer to get the stuff & fix it before it breaks!

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
