Does anyone know what the “E” stands for

Well my 2019 early build leaker was replaced with 2020 hopefully not leaker. No signs of an leaks on the window or headliner of the 2020 so fingers crossed. Very impressed with the 10 speed after th

No leaker here so can't do a 100% verification, but the problem seems to be with the spoiler design, regardless of weather the sealer leaks or not, and any cracks in the trim make it worse.

we need to file a class action lawsuit to GM and the dealership for shipping defective product to the market with out testing it knowing there has been a manufacturing issue.  We can also turn this into a health hazard issue as the leak will create mold and when mold starts growing in your truck from the leak it can be toxic and a huge health hazard.  I don't know about you but I'm making payments on a 50K dollar truck that I cant drive because they are taking forever to fix it.  We need to all go after GM in a big way.

I'd be happy just walking away from the truck and getting a Ford or Toyota...

I’m really happy with my truck so far. I hope this leak doesn’t happen again and drive me to the point where you and a few others are at... Been a GMC/Chevy fan for awhile now.

Seems like they gave you the wrong replacement window.  Almost everyone else has been getting Fayuo 43R—0000072

 

ive been leak free for a month with this window.  We will see

 

i haven’t noted any popping noises from roof / spoiler like I did with old Fayuo window

For me, the window problem sucks, yes. But what pisses me off to no end is the incompetence of the dealers. When I get my truck back, it should be in the same if not better shape then when I dropped it off. My truck with 1000 miles on it looks like it’s a year old on the interior with everything they’ve damaged.

Based on my non scientific Google research the E number and 43r numbers have to do with Europe safety standards. The important things are manufacturer fuyao vs Vitro, and model number which is M7035 (original design on my 2019 leaker) and M1235 (new design on my 2020 that also leaked and was replaced with a like M1235 that hasn't leaked YET)

let's go after these guys.  GMC and the dealerships are not dealing with our headache and stress to put us in this hardship so they need to pay the price.

I got my truck on the 15th and it has the M1235 window in it. It hasn't leaked yet but after reading through this I am nervous about it. We all have spent big money on our trucks and this is unacceptable.

Class action suits really only benefit the lawyers as they get most of the money from the suit. 

True but it will force GMC and the dealers to take action immediately and it might make it easier for us to get out of these vehicles or into a new one with less of a headache

In the long run not worth the time and effort. I (stupidly) after having a 2014 with the vibration issues (it had 0 other issues and was a great truck fit and finish wise) bought a 2019 that doesn’t shake, but has a ton of other problems.

I made some fixes myself to the window and if they don’t work, I’m going to get rid of mine for sure. I had a trade in offer for exactly what I paid for it so going to cut my losses and give another mfg my business. I realize the grass isn’t always greener but would rather not give GM the time of day at this point.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
