Let me know how long it takes for you to get it fixed... mine is still at the dealer as it as been for 5 months

 

And your dealer is waiting for the new oil line and taking 5 months?

I've spoken to a good friend who is a 30 + year tech at a North Jersey Chevrolet dealer. So far he has seen two '19 Silverados with blown oil cooler hoses. He said to look for a yellow witness stripe

Jesus Christ man. What is going on with Chevy? Failing oil lines, water leaks, software issues? You'd think they were BMW, and not good old reliable Chevy. I'm a BMW tech btw, and our quality has gon

sounds like the best thing to do is run it until the engine seizes up.

I heard that they're re engineering the part and don't know when it will be fixed

Ya , very well could be. id  Be asking again. I was the orginator iof this thread and after mine first blew I thought it would be fine with a replacement part. About 8-9 months after the replacement line was installed I got a recall

letter saying they would replace the defective line again.  I asked service manager and they replaced it with the same line that was from the faulty place to begin with so it could of  happened again.you assume the new peice they put on wont be defective again.  Always been a gm guy but these new 19-20 trucks are something special. At least my dealership was good with the constant breakdowns and giving me a loaner.

How long did it take you to get the part? 5 months is way too long

Craziest thing I have heard on these forms yet, you've been waiting for 5 months this is where a lawyer gets involved and you get your money back

5 months to get an oil cooler line? Something doesn't add up here. You can go online and get one sent to you in a couple of days.

Is this an issue with the 6.2 or just the 5.3L oil cooler lines?

I had one go on a 6.2. Luckily I shut the truck down immediately before I ran it out of oil

Well, add me to the list of guys who have had the engine oil cooler line fail.  2019 AT4 5.3 with 6200 miles. I had just pulled onto major roadway and got up to speed when my alarms sounded and dash read "low oil pressure, shut off engine immediately". As soon as I saw that it was an instant pull over and shut down.

 

25 minutes for G.M. roadside tow to arrive. Truck now at dealer to be repaired. Whole line came out of crimp! W.T.F.

Worst part with this is it has been happening for decades now, GM has always had issues with crimped oil lines coming undone and they seem to do not very much about it either.

Truck back. Dealer had line in stock. Service dept told me it still had approx: 3 qts of oil in the pan.  I think I got lucky being able to shut it down fast.

      Holy smokes. Clearly not a deal on that truck. I just mean in general, matte or painted trim is becoming more normative than chrome, but I know the Black Optics packages on various vehicles are being sold as uplevel trims. They look really good, but sheesh. It's just paint and plastic.

      I Wouldn't Know Where to Begin    Oh I know where I would begin but I'm just one of over eight billion people on this rock. Eight billion versions of where the goal post is. How large it should be. How far to kick from. What ball is the right ball. Elevation. Age.....are you getting the point? It isn't about disagreeing with one individual. It's about agreeing only with one individual. One's self.   Agreement comes when multiple people hold the same point already. THAT is the goal of an education. Building the Social Contract. That thing that allows us to all read this sentence. We've agreed on the alphabet and how to arrange those letters into words we agree upon whose meanings hold true for everyone entering into that contract. Those words arranged into a sentence form an idea and several sentences strung together in a paragraph convey an argument for or against or inform the reader of a state, condition or perhaps reveal a things nature. Paint a word picture. Make oneself known.    This contract is not limited to words although they are often explained by words. Things like numbers and their usefulness. Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Music, Art and so on.    The frequency of middle C (C4) is 261.63 Hz is a first principle. We build on that to make music we all can enjoy even if we all can not compose or play. You don't have to master it to make it enjoyable and useful.    So why is the Beginning so difficult? Why is agreement so elusive?   Everyone "Signs" the contract (when receiving that education in obtaining it)  but fewer and fewer in this world have any intention of living by that contract. They find exploiting that contract more advantageous. Disruption. With intent. Without intent. In Ignorance. In your face. With a double dog dare you. With a hold my beer. In resistance to that contract and in spite how it looks on us. It permeates the very air we breath.    In this way the contract is subject to advantage. Abide by it when it serves you, disregard it when it doesn't. Unpredictable and self-serving. Corrosive.....Toxic........   It says a lot about a persons character to disregard the contract, the truth, first principles. None of it good.        ********************************************************   https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/character-vs-personality-who-we-are-and-who-we-aspire-to-be/   Just an interesting article.

      It costs $5,250 for the Yukon Nightfall option (black wheels, emblems and illuminated black GMC grill badge). What a "deal".

      I keep getting the above error message on my 25 Sierra.  If I reset the infotainment unit (via the phone hang up button) it will work again for a day or 2.   But I dont want to do have to reset  all the time. Works fine in my 2023 Corvette. On both vehicles I connect wirelessly.   I have a Google Pixel 10 Pro XL, phone is up to date.  Any Ideas.  See attached

      Oil Consumption

      LOL, its thrown a few people because this item is being talked about in the gas part of the HD forum. Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to put a very brief wording in your profile with the year/GM or Chev/2500 or 3500/ and yes the 6.6 Duramax. When I joined this forum I could see the confusion ensuing for my own truck unless I had it listed with my chosen name handle unless one has a few vehicles that apply to a GM forum as that becomes confusing as well. Anyway its all good, makes for a little forum excitement 😉
