If you have a 2017 yes we could retrofit program a 2017 Tahoe/Suburban LTZ cluster to work in that application.

OK awesome

 

Would it have to be the Tahoe/Yukon cluster or would a Sierra Denali work also? And I am guessing it would have to be the 2017 not a 2016 right?

You want a 2017 Suburban or Tahoe LTZ cluster not Sierra or Yukon as the lighting is wrong for a chevy.

If I am not too concerned about the color of the lighting would the Denali clusters work? Reason I ask is that I can find Denali clusters but the Chevy ones are hard to come by. My truck is the only silverado in the whole country so no one other than me would really know that the color was not correct. Alternatively am I not able to change the color tu suit a Chevy?

No the physical FACE has a different color for the numbers as well as the LED lighting behind it.

I have a 2016 SLT 2500HD Diesel, do I need a cluster out of a denali diesel or will one out of a yukon denali work for me. I realize it has to be a 2016 for a 2016. Thanks for any help!

And would the escalade cluster fit in the sierra?

 

He said no in an earlier response to someone else that asked.

A yukon denali wouldnt have a Diesel Tach scale.... I mean it would work but might look silly.

That didn't even cross my mind but makes perfect sense. I will try and find a cluster out of a Diesel.

Thanks for the help!

I have a 2015 (not 2015.5) silverado LTZ Z71. Will a 2015 sierra denali gauge cluster work with mine? If so do you know the part number for the gauge cluster.

It won't. I asked the same question in an earlier post.

Yeah i know the escalade cluster wont work with it but im asking if a 2015 sierra denali cluster will work with a 2015 silverado. I emailed MVI and got there message after i posted here and they said you can switch a 2015 sierra denali cluster into a 2015 silverado.

Sorry about that. I misread your question.

Chris , I have a 2015 LT Chevy. I had the MVI car play radio conversation. Would I get a cluster from a 2015 since my truck is a 2015 or a cluster from a 2016 since the radio is from a 2016? Thx!

We would like to provide an added layer of assistance between you and your dealer as we pursue the resolutions of your transmission concerns.

    • Disclosure: BlueV8 is a Supporting Vendor and sells plug-in AFM/DFM disablers.   Before you spend a dime with us — or with anyone — try the AFM disabler GM already built into your truck. It's the shifter, and it's free. ⏱ The 10-second version 🚫 Skip the M5 method if: Most of your miles are highway — M5 locks out 6th gear, so you cruise at higher RPM and burn more fuel You already know you'll forget — it only works if you do it every single drive Your lifters are already ticking — nothing that switches AFM off repairs existing damage You already run a tune or disabler — this would be doing the same job twice ✅ Worth trying if: You want AFM off today, for exactly $0 You want to test-drive V8-only life before buying anything Your driving is mostly town and short trips, where 6th gear barely matters Your truck is leased or under warranty and you won't touch the ECM — this is zero hardware, zero software 💡 The whole trick, in one paragraph Owners across GM forums keep reporting the same pattern: put the transmission in manual / range-select mode, pick M5 or lower, and AFM never activates — the truck stays in V8 the whole drive. Bump it up to M6 and V4 mode comes right back. Two of the cleaner threads on it are here and here. GM has never documented this behavior, so file it under "strong owner consensus," not gospel. The good news: it takes exactly one drive to verify on your own truck. Steps below. What "free" actually costs Effort, every drive. It's a routine, not a setting. Shift to M, tap up to 5, every time you get in. There is no set-and-forget here. 6th gear. When GM shipped trucks with AFM/DFM switched off during the 2021 chip shortage, its own estimate of the penalty was about 1 MPG — and those trucks kept every gear. In M5 you're also giving up overdrive, so expect the highway hit to be bigger than that. Patience. One Tahoe owner ran the L5 routine for two months, then got tired of it and bought a plug-in disabler — he had an extended warranty, so flashing a tune was off the table. That's not a knock on the method. That's just what month two feels like.   I put together the full instructions, limitations, and links to the original owner discussions here: https://www.bluev8.com/blogs/news/how-to-disable-afm-for-free-the-m5-method
    • Disclosure: BlueV8 is a Supporting Vendor and we sell AFM/DFM disablers. We wrote this because not every GM owner actually needs one. In some cases, regular maintenance, towing use, an existing tune, or simply using M5 makes another device unnecessary.   ⏱ The 10-second version 🚫 Skip it if… You keep the oil full and change it every ~5,000 miles. Your risk is already low. You're happy shifting into M5 every drive. That disables AFM for free. Your truck tows heavy most days. AFM barely runs under load. You already run a tune or delete kit. Done is done. It's already ticking or misfiring. You need a mechanic, not a plug-in. ✅ Worth it if… You bought it used and the oil history is a mystery. Checking the dipstick is… not your hobby. (No judgment.) You're a long-term keeper with lots of easy highway miles — exactly when AFM runs most. The V4 drone and shudder drive you nuts. You're under warranty, so a tune is off the table.   The full article includes the supporting GM bulletins and owner reports: https://www.bluev8.com/blogs/news/do-you-actually-need-an-afm-disabler
    • It`s magnetic so it`s not main or rod bearings. I would pop off a valve cover or 2 and take a good look at the rocker arms. See if you can see if any needle bearings are coming apart.
    • Hey yall.   I have a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 5.3 2wd. I just did my own oil change (currently 132,000 miles) on the truck for the first time since I got it. It has always had routine maintenance done at the correct time. Never once had a check engine light, oil pressure light, or any light (except low fuel lol). Also never towed anything ever. It has been a daily driver for me.   I noticed the dipstick has metal shavings magnetized to the end of it. And even after wiping it and putting it back in like 12 times, it still pulls some out. The oil filter also has a good amount in it.  It has always ran perfect and still does. Never ever had a weird noise or knocking or ever ran rough. Almost too perfect lol. So this metal has really surprised me. I see some similar stories where people say this is normal wear, others say your engine is cooked. I know it’s hard to say for sure without seeing in person but just wanna see if anyone has had a similar experience at this mileage or any advice?   Thank you in advance.
