2016 LT crewcab, 129463. Replaced upper and lower A-arms, front bearings(110,000 miles), transmission(126,000 miles), catalytic converter(under warranty). Likes to through P219A code every once in a while. No catch can or AFM delete. Although since I added E rated tires AFM doesn't kick in much anymore.

catch can and AFM disabling seem to be a gm truck forum myth. most vehicles over 100k are all stock

Seems to be so much emphasis on a catch can and afm delete. To each their own but some of these posts prove it is not a necessity.

2014 Silverado 1500, 180k. Many highway miles, new fuel pump and ac condenser and transmission blew at 160k because previous owner would leave the truck on auto instead of two wheel drive all the time.

Why would leaving the transfer case in auto instead of 2WD blow the transmission? If anything wouldn't it blow the transfer case instead?

By my calculations, my 2015 Silverado would have about 90K, had it not gotten totaled 2 years ago.  My 2018 currently has about 25K, and is parked until my wife and daughter (both) return to work, minus the occasional Home Depot and/or Lowe's runs.  Been putting the little bit of fuel savings towards some of our small bills, trying to get out of debt (AGAIN! We were down to vehicles & house payments, until.....the wreck ruined it for us).

No, Your trans blew because of the crappy Torque Converter issue. Mine went at 120k miles on my 2014. About 30k miles after getting a dealer trans flush done.

Have you gotten that service before 160k?

That's the truth, had trans flush at 92k preventive maintenance thinking here. 12k later trans goes out. Glad I bought the extended warranty only paid deductible. You can say the extended warranty paid for it self in this instance.

2015 Yukon Denali

90k miles

lots of warranty work 

 

new trans 14k

#6 failed lifter

new fuel injector

ac condensor

radiator

3 of 4 mrc shocks

2 fuel pumps

GPS antenna

battery / ground cable 

pulley tensioner

headlight lens fogged and replaced

several sensors

tow brake/ gain switch

blower fan hvac 

 

without my extended warranty , I’d be F’d.

 

 

Would love to get 200k out of this, but not sure I want to foot the bill to get there if I continue to have significant issues.

 

I maintain all of my vehicles meticulously, so I expect better.  Lots of cheaply made components that fail way too early.

 

Oil changes 5k full syn

Diff, transfer case Trans fluids changed at 40k- with syn fluids

coolant and brake fluids flushed.

Grumps where's yours at?  Are you out of winter storage yet?  These K2's love the Salt, the more the better!  I am about to hit 135K and she is just barely holding it together!

I'm at 73,500 and I'm getting transmission drain and filter change. I'm not having flush done to many people have problems after that. Hope I don't have problems after having it done. It shifts fine now with no problems.

Love the height, low but not too low. Perfect

 

What’s the setup? Pro’s and con’s of that setup? Ie hitting front lip on curb, ride quality, etc. Do you ever haul any weight in the bed? (Its ok if you don’t i wont judge)

Right after the February freeze we had a nice warm up. Trickle charged the battery. Quick check of the fluids. Had not started her for the last 10 weeks. When the key got just near she jumped to life and purrr' d like a kitten with a bowl of warm milk. 

Your going to pass me. Not quite 135,000. 

 

Your really need to take better care of the sand whipped pup you drive 😉 Barely holding together indeed :crackup:

 

Luke is whipping us both

195K and counting on the Silverado...6.2 still sans catch can, full AFM, and returning up to 20 MPG over 300-400 miles!

 

Transmission got a new valve body due to suspected cooked solenoids....shifting indicates problem solved!

      Gas Prices

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.

      Sounds like a smart reasonable person with common sense. Bill O’Riley never said he was just a journalist, by the way.

Video Platforms: She has contributed to PragerU, where she has hosted videos critiquing government mandates on vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Core Positions Anti-EV Mandates & Fuel Policies: Fix regularly critiques government subsidies and mandates for electric vehicles (EVs), framing them as impractical and burdensome to the average consumer. She advocates for consumer choice and supports traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. [1, 2, 3] Economic Analysis: Her commentary often emphasizes the impacts of fuel prices, inflation, and federal regulations on drivers. [1, 2, 3] Political Alignment: On her public channels, she actively supports deregulation, "drill baby drill" energy policies, and the removal of government restrictions on auto sales and manufacturing.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By SilveradoMarc · Posted

      Wouldn't swapping out the original AFM/DFM parts for a complete Delete Kit be the best route to go if one could afford to go that route?
