Yeah. The thing with the K2s was that the GM mats didn’t cover beneath the gas pedal for who knows what reason. So they were worthless to me.

Some rep from Chevy told me that it was to avoid the gas pedal sticking. I get the liability reasoning, but I call BS because I made a custom pedal extension and it fit no problem. Pedal didn't catch either at all positions (I have the adjustable pedals). 

 

That being said, GM revised it the middle of last year to include a lip under the gas pedal. Didn't go quite as far as my custom mat, but it looks MUCH better and has nearly identical functionality. I'm a happy camper.

One thing though... My matts are CoCoa color can develop "white" bend marks and scratches if I'm not careful - not sure that I like that too much.  I know, I know, these things are supposed to take the abuse so the rugs don't - but I am still in the <3,000 miles / park-in-the-boonies phase of Denali 2500HD ownership... :) 

You could try the heat gun trick. 

I know in the past if I had a plastic/vinyl interior panel that turned white from bending or scratching it  I hit it CAREFULLY with a heat gun from a slight distance and it made the marks magically disappear.  Something about "re-wetting" the plastic...

 

May want to try in a hidden area first though and don't go to far or, well, you know what will happen.

 

Good luck if you try!

Thanks Jeff, I had thought about trying a hair dryer or heat gun when I first saw what was happening. But the texture on my rear mats felt more brittle than the front mats, but everything was brand new I had the dealer look and they replaced them right away (citing, "strange... must be faulty material").  Done.  The replacements have been in for a few of months now and no such marks or discoloration at all.  I agree, musta been a bad batch....   I really love the GMC full coverage mats though because they look great, are excellent quality, perfect color match, and provide great protection.  Also, for those considering an under-set storage bin which will sit on top of the full-cover rear mats - I have a du-ha (perfect color match) full-length bin (less costly) and there is no interference whatsoever so I imagine that there'd be no problem with GM's underseat bin either.

Does anybody have the GM floor liners in their truck and think that the dead pedal part doesn’t fit well? Mine seems to move up and down under my left foot on the dead pedal.  Everywhere else fits excellent. 

I have the same issues and shopchevyparts.com is absolutely no help!

Mine came with the chevy floorliners, I replaced them with ones from Husky, I'm much happier with the Husky.

 

It's my understanding though, that there's 2 kinds of floormats from chevy, a "cheaper" kind and a higher one. My truck came with the crappier of the 2 :)

Does anyone know does GM make a liner that covers around the throttle pedal to fit 2017 and replace the crappy one like I have and a part #?

Had the expense ones and replaced them with the front mat that didn't have the cut out for throttle. Didn't like that on a 70 grand truck

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
