Quick update. Just emptied the can today. I don’t think I’m quite at 500 miles since the install and already poured this much out of the can[emoji15]

I thought we squashed are beef but it looks like you want to continue it. That’s fine with me. 

Hey looks like you guys did make up and all is good. He went from being a bully to now your biggest fan! He is literally cheering for you!!!!!! He is now your personal cheerleader!!! I used to have those when my kids were younger and when I first started dating my now called wife. Now all I have are a bunch of so-called people who love me but troll and bully me 24/7. So enjoy this time before the honeymoon is over!

 

On a side note...Joe I may need just the CSS for a 2018 6.2L. It's currently running just your single catch can. He has a K&N CAI.

Installed my UPR single valve can today.  Easy install, took me just over an hour, but folks with more time under the hood than me can do it in half the time.

I PM’d Joe and he set me up with the kit deal for $219.  Excellent deal, and the shipping was pretty quick, no duty was a bonus.  Joe and the team at UPR were great to deal with.

I’ve got a 2018 5.3 with 9K on it, there was no noticable oil in the OEM line.  Interested to see how much is there after a couple of weeks.

Will this void any warranties

 I believe that depends on the issue. If the dealership can prove that the catch can caused or was related to the issue or failure then yes. I don’t believe they can void your entire power train warranty because of a catch can. I’m sure there are dealerships out there that would try though. This is just what I’ve gathered from having the same question so please don’t take this as a for sure yes or no. May need to ask your dealer.

 

I just installed long tubes and had the truck tuned so I’m definitely rolling the dice. My truck is a 2015 but my powertrain is not up until Aug 2020. [emoji1694]

Just yank it out before taking it to the dealer...or better yet, don't ever go to the dealer.

About to order mine up today! Have a set of longtubes on the way so might as well get a catch can on my truck at the same time.

Received my kit in the mail today. Wow that was fast. Might get around to installing tonight to see what I can collect over the weekend. Thank you @Joe@UPRproducts for having someone reach out to me. Good piece of mind with the upgrades I have coming soon!

I'm just going to piggy back on this thread as I too utilized the deal Joe put out to the Forum. Spoke with "Steve" several times prior to Joe's offer as I tried to decide which route to take. He spent a good deal of time answering my many questions and in the end, they got my business. As has been stated, a very simple install, well made and shipping was very fast but I live Fla. so it didn't have to travel very far. 

 

Here's a finished install pic.

I have a question for UPR , in the single valve set up, there is a check valve in line to the pcv port. Why is the check valve needed and can it be removed, as I believe there is a check valve in the pcv valve from the factory? The 6.2l I believe there is a check valve in the pcv that you plug into. I'm not sure about the 5.3 but I would think it is the same.

Ok I'm sold. I'm at 50k and no catch can. I thought with the AFM disabler I'd be safe but never really put much thought into the GDI issue.  Is the special still going on?

Single valve CC is still $199. Comes with check valve built in, braided lines, etc.

AFM disabling doesn't change anything with needing a catch can.. About to empty mine later I will post the results. I have about 500-1000 miles on mine

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      By MANGOAL · Posted

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
