Both myself and friend of mine own a 19 Silverado 1500 (RST and Trail Boss). Same exact issues with the Fuel Pump Module. GM needs to eat this one and put a bulletin out to repair a known defect.

Sounds like a lot of guys real frustrated with this issue.

 

I’ve given up on dealers.

 

buy the part off eBay and replace yourself. Two screws and one clip….. very very easy

2020 Chevrolet Silverado RST 4WD 5.3 V8 Fuel Pump Control Module Failure less than 20k miles.

 

Dealer said may be a month and is renting a car for me but wants me to kick in on the cost.

 

Not happy about this at all !!

I am having a similar issue however my code was a P0498 EVAP emission system vent valve circuit low. Replaced the vent valve solenoid but still had light. Replaced the purge valve solenoid but also still had light on. Took it to the dealer and they say the fuel pump flow control module needs replaced but is on b/o. Waiting to hear when they think it might be in. Seems to me $500 is a bit steep, isnt it mounted on the side of the frame?

Is there any reprogramming necessary afterwards?  Should I disconnect the negative the battery while swapping out the part?
 

Must be a bad batch of modules or something.

Just purchased a brand new 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Limited with barely 700 miles. A few days ago, the Service ESC, Check Engine, Engine Power Reduced and StabilitTrak lights came on! Took the truck to local Chevy/GMC dealership and was told that I have a bad fuel pump! Part is on order (May 11th 2022) so let’s see how long this will take -_-

I just had the exact same thing happen on my 2020 HC.  It is at the dealer now and they don't know how long till the parts come in...

 

Has anyone had a second failure?

My 2020 Trail Boss has been in the shop several weeks now.  The fuel pump is bad according to the technician.  Fuel pumps are on national back order according to customer services.  They don't have any idea of when the part will be in.  I am very upset.  Customer assistance offered to pay the truck note, but I have to pay the tag and insurance ($250 per month).  That can get expensive fast on a vehicle I cannot even drive.  And I am worried about the income tax ramifications of them paying the note.  At some point doesn't the lemon law kick in? I am seriously over this truck.

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By newdude · Posted

      Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.

      Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!

      This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
