Blew 6.2, gm denying warranty

Pre direct injection they actually weren’t all that great...24-26 if you babies it. Their first direct injection CRV’s were getting 29-33. Their next generation CRV direct injection/smaller engine/turbo, went up a bit...should be able to get 30-36. 
 
Not exactly my favorite vehicles on the road...little loud, little tiny. Not terrible or anything but just not that great. We’re getting rid of ours, but it’s been absolutely flawless is reliability. Done nothing to it in 139,000 miles.

I’ve lived in trucks for 40 years. I average 50K miles a year. Retired I’m loving driving cars for a change.

Think you all got trolled

 

Maybe double or triple agent sent here by Ford? 

Just not doing very good job as they must have experienced a "death wobble" or had the ecoboost go ecoboom on them...

There would be a a history log in the computer even if the light on the dash did light.
Unfortunately the statement the light isn't on isn't enough to give warranty as it is ultimately the responsibility of the driver to assure maintenance is kept up. Best you can do at this point is request all history log print out. And just buy a engine and install yourself or have local shop do it.
I have seen just yesterday 5.3 with trans and harness for $1700 and a 6.2 with trans for 3k.
But save that bad engine it is worth more parted out. 600-1000 on heads. Injectors and pump 250. Intake 80, block 500+. But if it was me have it taken apart and see what broke. I mean I can easily guess with low oil but still I would want to know.
Oh where did all that oil go?

where have you seen the 6.2L's for sale? I've been scouring the internet looking for salvaged, used, refurbished etc to pick up.  PM me if you don't mind.

There's always that guy that gets way better mileage than everyone else.?

Mine gets 3049582374 MPG. Beat that!! . . . . . . . . .

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
