So I currently I have a 4.8 ly2 from a 2008 tahoe I yanked out a few years ago and I also have a 2008 4x4 5.3 ly5 tahoe that the motor just blew .all I need to know is it possible and what I would need in order to do the swap . Dont want to buy a 5.3 which is the smarter move just want to do the swap and get anything I need .

- Ground 218 and Service Stabiltrac and Brake message only issue ??

  Thank you VERY much to everybody in this thread. I have a 2014 Silverado Texas Edition & I've loved every second of it... until this ground issue came up. I'm losing the time & radio memory immediately if I set it up again & the G218 ground seems to be the most common issue. You mention the You Tube video was a great help, but I didn't notice a link to the particular video you watched. In doing a search, I can find several, but would certainly prefer finding the one your recommend. I'd sure appreciate any help finding that same one, if that's possible. Thank You! KirbyCo

- Where is the Ambient Air Temperature Sensor on a 2021 Chevy Suburban?

  Ambient temp sensor is installed at the bottom of the grille shutter at the front of the truck behind the grille. That would not be the ambient air temp sensor. That would be the windshield outside moisture/ambient light and humidity sensor. Not the ambient temp sensor.

- 23 Silverado 1500 - passenger front floor mat wet

  We had a Buick Enclave with a sunroof leak. It had a water tray with drains that would grow some funk in them. Then the water would run out onto the floor and the mats would stink from the wetness. We figured out to use an air blower with a rubber tip to blow them out regularly. Open up the roof and stand on the seat you can see the holes in the corners.
