I sold my 06 Silverado 2 years ago had it 9 years. Went to that sight they want vin well that truck is long gone. It had well over 100,000 on it. Now I have a Sierra and don't qualify. I have had 7 GM vehicles and own 2 now. Bummer.

I used the VIN from the last Chevy I sold. New truck is a GMC. I have owned 5 new Chevys and at least a 100 used ones. Hell I have 6 or 7 right now.

Freaking Rip Off

 

So I went to use the 20% off for some Wheel Housing Liners. They are $96 from GM after the discount. Got them in the cart and when to buy. The shipping is $100. Amazon has free shipping with them at $161. GM gives the option to have them delivered to a dealer for free. Irritated I check that option. All the dealers are at least 200 miles away. The wont ship it to the dealer 2 miles down the street. No, flipping GM wants me to drive 4 hours. 

 

Im really getting sick of GM

 

I bought a none GM version for $103 with free shipping from Amazon. Thanks again GM.

Cool story bro. So I guess it’s “shame on GM” for giving you a 20% off coupon?  Use it on something smaller that’s not expensive to ship.

I got the calendar first, then the hat and decals a few weeks ago.  Still waiting on my emblem.  A few guys at work have gotten them already, but not me yet.

I got my calendar on the wall at work. Got my hat setting on the dresser in the bedroom. I also got a pack of trading cards somewhere arou d here. Last week I got the emblem in the mail. Wow! Pretty nifty if you ask me.

IM me your mailing address. I used only one of mine you can have the rest I’ll send them

How do I know if they will ship me the goodies? I registered with my new trucks VIN, under 50k miles, and selected I owned two trucks. I don't see where I put the VIN of my prior truck.

My stuff just started arriving without any notification (hat/stickers etc, then the calendar and last was the badge) and I didn't put any vin #'s for my previous trucks.

Thank you. Guess I'll just hang tight and see if I get anything.

They are cloth.... they are about $7 to ship. Not $100 and Amazon can ship them for free. You cannot get much cheaper to ship. You totally missed that GM marked up the shipping to make extra money. Its a very common sales practice. $100 my ass. GM sold me a truck for $42,000 I think they could charge me actually shipping rates.

    • tldr; Shade tree mechanic stumped by variable displacement AC compressor.   Not Silverado related, but for my 2000 Camaro SS. I've never really used the AC since acquiring the car a good handful of years ago. I plan to take it on a trip this summer so I wanted to make sure the AC was in good shape. On an 73 degree day in the shop with the car idling I set the AC on "Max", temp set to cold, and fan on hi. The compressor turned on and air turned nice and cold.   I let it run for several minutes but noticed the compressor never cycled off. The engine was up to temperature enough that it began cycling the cooling fans on high. I had a set of manifold gauges hooked up and it was consistently at about 25 psi on the low side and between 200 and 225 psi (warm engine) on the high side. Per temperature charts, the low side is low (should be 30-35) and the high side is a little high (up to 170 per chart). I read the low pressure as potentially being under-charged underscored by a continually running compressor This was also underscored by temp readings of mid-20 degrees at the vents. Not just cold, freezing cold. Switching off the AC but leaving the HVAC fan on high produced a deluge of condensation underneath the vehicle. I was getting ice buildup on the evap core most likely.   The low reading (25psi) concerned me that the compressor wasn't switching off so I swapped out the pressure switch. No change in behavior, still ran constantly.   The AC clutch works fine as it engages/disengages with the HVAC switch on command. The compressor relay is good as I swapped it with two different known good relays just to be sure. Having eliminated that, and the pressure switch, I added refrigerant, thinking the constant run and low "low" pressure were signs of a slight undercharge. Makes sense, the car is 26 years old and it doesn't appear the AC system has ever been touched.   Adding some R134a didn't meaningfully change the low side pressure. And that's when a lightbulb flashed upstairs. While I consider the car "old", it's possibly "new" enough to have a variable displacement compressor. Did some reading and sure enough. Dangit. I don't work on these for this reason.   Adding refrigerant means the compressor will just compensate and won't really change pressures until it's severely overcharged or undercharged. But at least I wasn't getting ice/frost anymore, but instead high 30 degree temps out of the vents. That's more normal, but with variable displacement now I have no idea where my charge level is at. It's probably overcharged now. The high side even with the engine radiating serious heat was never really over about 225.   The static pressure at room temperature is dead on, before and after the charge. Both high/low equalize after some rest.   I'm thinking I'll need to take it to a shop. I want the proper charge level so I'm not working the compressor too hard. The only way to get an accurate charge is to evacuate and then re-charge with the exact amount specified for the system -- at least that's what I'm reading.   Anyone here with modern automotive AC knowledge?  
    • Mine is in the shop for the AC now. While it did get cold after a bit, it would take a while to even start to cool the air at all. Turns out the compressor was bad and cycling. 
    • I call B.S. when I first moved to Texas my first house would only cool to 80 with the Texas heat. The AC tech said it was normal at 100 degrees outside. I remodeled the house put in a new AC. I could hang meat. My cars may need recirculating to start. Once moving it switches to regular AC and I could hang meat. Living in Texas no one would put up with only 20 degrees difference. 
    • AC in home or auto only cool down 15-25 degrees from outside temp, but what will help is to put the ac in recirc mode this will recirc the Inside cabin air rather then trying to cool down the outside hot air, I always have mine in recirc mode.
    • Found the fix for this.  Untightan the bolt just below top linkage on the steering column, turn assembly left to reduce space between the two linkage rods at the steering column, tighten bolt.  Made a big improvement.
