I have a 2014 silverado 1500  with a 5.3l, I have the P06DD code, does anybody have any actual solutions for this problem? I have been searching and no one has seemed to actually found a definite reason for this code or solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine had the same problem. It’s the engine oil pressure switch gauge. It’s like 50$ part from online, which you want to make sure the kit includes the sensor AND the filter screen for it, otherwise you’ll get the same code in no time. The worst part is the labor for it. It’s from build up of carbon in the engine that “gunks” up the oil and gets trapped on the filter sending a code for “stuck in off position”. I looked around and older GM’s you could have done the labor yourself though kinda tough. The 14 like I have, it just so happens to be inside the engine, right below the headers somewhere, which only makes the labor that much more expensive. Overall I’d look around at pricing on replacing the sensor and filter. Bulk of price is almost completely labor related. Mine would come on and off, once I did some work on the truck luckily it just so happened to free up and now is never on. Most people with this problem will see their check engine light come on and off(on more often than off). Hope this could get some insight.

I found 14 TSB's related to that code...Are you having any other conditions or codes at the same time? A little more information might help the folks on the forum here to think about what your problem is...

I have the 14 and am right at 133,000 miles and just recently got this code, it is off now.  2 fill ups ago I used a fuel additive (STP type stuff) which I have never done prior to this.  From reading these comments, I am thinking that possibly the additive cleaned up some of the carbon build up and has caused the "gunk" to get trapped on the filter and may have triggered the code.  Is this possible or more of an unrelated coincidence???

I have a 2014 with the code P06DD.  Had the vehicle serviced twice to clean it up and replace oil sensor. The P06DD is still showing. After some searching I discovered SB-10080702-2280  https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/SB-10080702-2280.pdf

Subject: Models: Service Bullet,in PRELIMINARY INFORMATI01 N Code P06DD No Or Low Oil Pressure

Built with RPO's 4.3L 5.3L 6.2L L83 L86 L T1 LT4 LV3

The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this Pl.

Condition/Concern Bulletin No.: PIP5407

Date: Jun-2016 Vehicle setting code P06DD, no or low oil pressure, oil control valve may be stuck off commanding high oil pressures (95 psi) and or oil pump face may be damaged.

Recommendation/Instructions Tensioner spring in timing chain guide may be "short" not fully seating into guide pivot end. Cycling Oil Pump Control Valve will not cause changes in oil pump response.

1) Short spring not reaching the pivot. Replace timing chain tensioner guide. If oil pump face is damaged and or worn thru replace oil pump. Inspect bearings for damage wear due to debris from oilTensioner spring in timing chain guide may be "short" not fully seating into guide pivot end.  

This is a major issue with a very large repair bill of $1500 to $2000 USD.

    • Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable. 
    • I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle. 
    • I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.
