How about a list of all the mods/harnesses Phil has put together?
 

Yes! I’ll make as soon as I can catch up.

Yes - you can change from red to blue... HVAC Controls, Radio Controls, Headlight Switch.

Cluster - if you get a 2016 Cluster, I’ve been told it can be back ported to 2015... BUT... you would have do a complete upgrade of HMI (2016 HMI, Radio module, cluster, USB hubs to support Apple Play).

I’ve got an OEM/HMI Factory,in box from my 2016 LTZ71 2LT  took out at around 7500 miles, bought another programmed with Navigation from programmers. I Would consider selling it. Has “Apply CarPlay & Bluetooth”, But Navigation was OnStar or Google. Thanks

I'd just like my truck to not constantly bounce back and forth into day then night mode a billion times every time I drive it. Light sensors in these trucks is so annoying.

Front window tinted?

Front window tinted?
The windshield? No.
Only thing I tinted were the side windows and only 35%

Totally agree

.. you could always just stick a hat on your dash over the sensor and they're always on! [emoji3]

That'd stick my dash into night mode. And I like my DRL LEDs ...

I always reach up there and turn them to off when I start the truck. I guess it keeps that from happening too. I just did it because I don't like the DRL's.

 

There is a write up somewhere that explains how to remove the spring from the Auto on headlight switch so that it stays in the off position when you put it there.

I want to have the power memory seats be a "one-press" button as well.  Why do I have to hold the button down???  

Ugh - YES!!! My wife’s Durango is a one touch memory recks.

Hmmm, I only have to press the button once in my Yukon. Wonder why it’s different on the trucks.

Dang it. I may need to borrow your switch then. [emoji23]

Marriage saver though....every time I swap out driving to passenger I just hold the button until she’s seated and the close the door for her. I’m sure Phil will incorporate the Tesla “Drive home from Alaska” module into ‘14+Up GMs soon though.....

    • Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.          
    • Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.  
    • I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
