I just installed the GM Cold Air Kit on my 2019 Silverado 6.2L. I had the chance to buy and compare both the K&N 63-3109 and the GM Part #  84789804. The price difference was about $85 more for th

Yeah I have mixed feeling about an intake.  After reading the thread by Rotofab and seeing all the opinions tossed back and forth.   For the price you're going to pay for an intake vs. the end hp/tq g

K&n has their 2019 Silverado intake up for pre order on their site. A rep told me they should ship out soon since production has started.

Does anyone know with the GM Part #  84789804 Cold Air Intake if the filter media can be washed and reused or not.  The instructions say to replace the filter with a new one part number 84428120 every 20K miles.  Every other dry media CAI is washable.  These filters are hard to find and expensive..

Need some advice.  Have A 2019 Sierra 1500 Denali w/ 6.2.  Can’t decide between the Borla Touring system or the S-Type.  Don’t really want to wake up my neighbors in the AM every day.  Also what would be the best CAI to use?  Thanks for any help on the subject.

GM Performance and Borla Touring are the same.  S-Type is louder.  I have GM Performance CAI and exhaust on my Trail Boss w/ 6.2.  When I start her up she has a decent bark and rumble until she I either put my truck in D or it's up to temp.  I've asked my neighbors if my truck is loud at startup.  They said they don't even hear it.

Looking to replace exhaust on a 2019 Sierra Denali w/ 6.2.  Should I put on the Borla Touring or the S-Type system.  Don’t want it too loud but also want to hear it.   Also, what CAI would you recommend?

 

Thanks for the help.

If you put in the GM CAI do you have to get the ECM flashed?  The other brands don’t require a flash?  Just wondering.

 

 Thanks 

When I purchased the GM CAI, the directions stated that it had to be flashed by the dealer and there was a code in with it that the dealer used.

If you don't get it flashed you could end up with a CEL

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
