What model and trim is it, guessing a crew since your VIN starts with a 3.

The 3 means it as built in Mexico, not the box type

Correct, 14-18 crew cabs were built in Mexico.

Sorry to revive this but trying to find out some info on BTV Rpo code, I got this truck form my dealer used 2016 CC Silverado, it only came with one set of keys, and the key is not even the normal looking one that my older chevys have been looks like maybe a replacement. I have the BTV code so was not sure if I can just get remote start fobs and have them programmed or do I still need to more installed on it?

Yes sir, and your new truck should start with a 1,  4. or 5 (not likely the last 2) if built in the USA, 2 for Canada. Second digit will be a G, for GM.

Yup my 2018 that is my new rig starts with 1. Made sure of this before buying. Too many start with 3 when i worked at dealer had key fit/working issues when cutting the key from VIN. Hated that.

Honestly, the build quality on my 18 Mexican made crew is just as good as our $75000.00, 16 Tahoe which was built in the USA. Both LTZ, which should not make a difference how they are put together, but maybe?

If your truck did not come with it, you will need everything that comes in this kit, 22997089 Complete Remote Start Kit for 2014 - 2018 Silverado or Sierra 1500 OEM

Is there a write up on here on how to install?

I have a 2015 GMC sierra. I pulled the RPO listing for my vin and it shows this...

BTV

CONTROL REMOTE ENGINE START REMOTE CONTROL ENGINE START(BTV)

 

So does this mean without a doubt my truck has the ability. I bought the truck used and the keyfob was broken, I bought a replacement with the same 4 buttons, took the guts out of the old keyfob and put it in the new case and the doorlock buttons work, but the remote start button does not(even with hitting lock, then holding the circle for 3 seconds) I guess my question is now, is that button of the remote not working, or is the truck not set up for remote start. My next step is to reprogram a new 4 button remote and see if it will remote start with that remote. My main question is that if the RPO says BTV is there no reason remote start should not work?

 

Thanks in advance - Joe

I am not an expert but I have the same RPO code on my 2016 and the remote start definitely works. I also have 2 FOBs that came with it when I bought brand new. As long as none of the remote start stuff got removed, you should have that capability.

Just to add, if you have any codes present or a faulty hood latch, the remote start will not work. All codes need to be cleared first. Not sure how to diagnose hood latch though.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
