thanks!     My truck has no mods.  AFM is enabled, no catch can, stock everything.  Once it warms up ill give it some fresh plugs, fluids and a level.   IMO the key is to keep it c

152,240 Miles

Recent late fall/ early winter photo.

 

Last update was 100,4** miles. 

 

Pinion seal, Starter plastic bellhousing cover replaced. About $20 in parts. Only money spent over ROUTINE maintenance on this unit. Can we call it reliable yet? 

 

Still on the OEM brakes with many miles left in them. Tires replaced at 125,000 miles when they dated out. Had a year or better tread left in them. Everything works. Nothing is rotting or rusting away. Uses no oil. AFM active. No catch can. Have a few rock chips to repair and scuff in the front bumper needs some attention. Interior flawless. Needs a spring cleaning bumper to bumper. Maybe I toss a tune up at her when it warms a bit.

2014 Sierra 1500. 213K miles.  Had ac just before 100K, Vacuum pump replaced before recall, got $ back.  Had new transmission around 175K (ouch).  Tires and brakes as needed. replaced plugs, wires and ignition coils around 200k after one coil caused some misfires.  wondering what new engine might cost @300K.   still feels like a new truck.  Might put new belts on it next year.  Oh yeah, a new battery a couple years ago. So not zero problems.

Nothing major yet. She is starting to suffer Lingchi. Ozone attack of plastics and rubber. Rock chips that are becoming increasingly more difficult to keep up with. Weathering of the windshield. Hits of a million of bugs and their removal. Not a bubble baby. No rust or body damage. Still plenty to work with and fight for.

Neither of which may classify as "high miles," but.....

 

Bought my 2015 in December 12, 2015.  When it was totaled on July 1, 2018, it had 53,******.  Only serious maintenance was tires and new front brake pads (at 50K).

 

Bought my 2018 in September 15, 2018, 21,400ish as of today, 16 months of ownership.

About a month ago, I hit 61,000.  With gas prices going over $5/gal again, I'm not driving it as often/much.

I have a 2014 CC Standard Bed 4x4  5.3 v8 Currently 184K

 

I lost AC condenser/transmission cooler around 100k.

Had an alignment done after a level was installed around 110k

Factory battery was replaced also around 125K.

I replaced all brake pads and rotors at 175k as I had developed a bit of brake shudder in heavy braking.

Been running slightly larger than stock tires on stock wheels since about 80K

Change oil every 7k 0-20 Edge. Fram Filter.

 

Other than that I'm averaging 18.6 mpg mixed higwhay/2 lane/city driving.  

 

 

 

 

Wait...184K without Amsoil? Impossible!!

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
