DougFl 2019 Silverado


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just picked up my 2019 Silverado High Country in Havana Brown Metallic. It is interesting how the color changes under different light conditions!1f60e.png  Only have 23 miles on it and still have a lot to set up.  The truck definitely sit higher than the 2016.  The seats are firmer and the HUD is awesome!  Will update more as I get used to truck.

nice color... how is the ride compared to the 2016, any noticeable difference? 

The ride seems fine, but I need to drive it more than 20 miles for a more informed opinion.

Great looking truck Doug.

You are right about the color.

It looks almost black in a couple of the shadier photos.

Doug,

Please keep us up to date on the mods section if you would like.

There is a thread for what have you done with your T1 today.

You can post any mods there that you make to the rolling root beer float :thumbs:

Paint color reminds me of that root beer flavored hard candy.

like all dark colors... fantastic to look at when they are clean for the first 12 hours after you wash.. :D

Nice looking truck. You should consider getting a Xpel mini kit to protect the front end from rock chips. That and ceramic coating will keep it looking new for a long time.

I am getting the 3M version as soon as the shop get the 2019 front end patterns.

12 hours?

With Black and dry dusty conditions.....1 hour is tops for me! :tear:

True...  I didn't mean 12 hours of actually driving.  I met 12 hours in the garage after the wash :D

 

I was real close to getting the NorthSky Blue, or Black on my RST order... those color match RST just look great in dark colors.  But I just couldn't do it this time,  went with White just for this reason.

    • Thanks everyone for the help!   I'm going to stop into the scales one of these days and weigh my axels, for the time being, I am going to run Toyo's recommendations and also do a chalk test. I have a tire shop that's going to try their scanner to reprogram and set the the factory psi values lower, and if they can't I'm going to order a scanner and do it myself!
    • You won’t do better than stock exhaust without headers. Just put your favorite muffler on it and it will do the job. 
    • I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.  
    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.  
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.
