New to forum, sorry if this is listed somewhere else. I just bought a 2019 Silverado 1500 Trail Boss LT Crew Cab. Started having issues with my parking sensors turning off and giving me an error message each time I turned the truck on. Took it to the dealer and they figured out it was the right front sensor but it wasn't covered under warranty because it has a dent in  it. Looks like a rock must of hit it dead on while I was driving on the Highway... they wanted $500 to fix it... needless to say I said no thanks I can fix it. I ordered the replacement sensor and had a buddy paint it to match the bumper but that's where I am running into an issue... the middle two sensors on my trail boss are easy to get to, you can just look under the truck and see them in the back of the bumper... but the front two side ones are more complicated. I need to change out the front right now and can't get to .. there are support brackets and what looks other bumper brackets at the sides... I have spent a couple of hours on it and can't figure out which brackets I need to remove to get to it... starting to think the whole bumper needs to come off. Has anyone had to switch out one of the front parking sensors that are located on the sides? Let me know if pictures help of the supports that I mentioned above.

I am have the same problem on my Silverado LTZ 2019 . Rock hit right front sensor can find no way to remove sensor without removing the complete bumper assembly. This is just wrong, chevy want approx.$ 500.00 to replace a $ 54.00 item.

My sensors were acting up and the Tech said he would try to replace the bad one but could not get at it without removing the bumper. I said to wait and in the long run it corrected itself. So you are probably right about having to remove a bunch of stuff.

I am having issues on my 21' TrailBoss....my sensors will randomly go off while driving saying REAR SENSORS OFF/PARKING SENSORS OFF.....I'll back into a spot, and the cluster gauge won't turn on, and then it will...totally random at times.....Has anyone else had issues with theirs turning off at all random times? The dealer initially said it was b/c I have the oil rust inhibitor sprayed and now they are saying it is b/c I put in LED Reverse Lights, LED license plate lights and LED turn signals.....All of which were installed way before this issue happend...I think the dealer doesn't know and just making up excuses...

 

Thank you.

    • Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.
    • Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case."

But you and I? We are not doing this. 
    • Probably a one and done post, but do you have a CEL on the dash? Was having issues with my transmission, fortunately only a week, and it turned out to be the transmission harness. Valve body was in good shape, so new harness with all the sensors attached, new fluid, and filter. Seems to have worked so far?
    • Two interesting tidbits of information which are NOT related were just released.   One, regarding the possible thrust bearing issues / engine failures with the 3.0. Demonworks just did a segment in which they believe they may have found "a" or "the" cause of thrust bearing failures: A missing thrust bearing. If the engine doesn't have all its thrust bearings from the factory, the missing bearing can cause extra play which ends up destroying a nearby thrust bearing which then sends metal through the engine.       Of other importance, Lake Speed Jr released some interest information regarding oil weight selection for the 3.0. Comparisons of:   AcDelco 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w30 Mobil 1 ESP x4 0w40. Mobil Delvac 5w40   Spoiler alert: The Mobils are PAO Ester -base and the ACDelco is a Group III base. Mobil shows lower wear in their tests for similar weights. Additive packages between 20-30-40 weight ESP's appear to be the same, but only 0w20 is Dexos D licensed. Wear is even more reduced with 30 and 40 weight ESP although all perform very well and resist shear and provide very similar viscosities within temperature operating ranges in the 3.0.   There are even more surprises, so just go watch it.    
    • Hello Guys I'm new to the form,         I just put a 7-inch Rough Country lift on my 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.3 and I also put a Borla exhaust on it. But I noticed when I'm in park or in neutral and then I rev my truck up really quick there is a bad click noise and I think it's coming from the motor somewhere. Anyways I got a video of it I will attach below I was just wondering if you guys think its rod knock or lifter tick or something like that because I know the AFM kind of made the lifters weak on these trucks.       Thanks!!!!!
