Hi all. This will be my first post. So be gentle to the newbie.

I have noticed that on Chevy and GMC trucks that there is a different Z71 decal on some.  Some have the words "Off Road" under the z71 and others do not. I though the Z71 option was the "Off road" package.  Is there a difference?  

 

Just curious.

I believe the decals changed around the same time the 4th rear door became standard on the Extended cabs (approx. February 2000)

 

Any relation between the two? Probably not. The General just changed the decals I think. (For the better IMO)  :D

there are some 4 door trucks out there with the older style Z71 sticker look at http://www.picturetrail.com/bco

 

his truck is a 2000 4 door with the z71 no offroad.

Hey Ryan - long time...

 

Yeah, the 4th door was an option until Feb 2000. It was standard equipment on the ext cabs after that. Years after it was standard on the F-150  :angry:

Welcome to the forum Mac:

 

The difference between the ones is the year of the truck, I think in 2001 they switched from the Z71, to the Z71 "Off Road" Decal on the truck.  If you've got the old style sticker you can always buy the new ones and put them on.

Thanks for the replys. I have the "Off Road" version. I was just curious to see if it had anything to do with getting any of the other option packages with the Z71 package.

Same here Ryan, I think our trucks were both 'born' in April 200 if I remember correctly.

 

It was a mid-year 2000 model year thing.

I think GM added the "offroad" to the decal to justify the price increase from the '00 to the '01!!!  LOL  (just kidding)

 

I think theses guys have already answered your question.  Welcome to the forum!!!

Why don't they just leave the trashy looking stickers off our truck, and charge us $5.00 less?   :sarcasm:

I removed the 4X4 sticker from my bedside!!!

Paco, we get a DVD Player option w/ the bose stereo for 2003.IM000275.JPG

:D

 

So there you go, for once I'm right.  And who needs heated cloth seats?  Cloth doesn't get cold, especially base model cloth :D

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      By CNH-320 · Posted

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
