Any update on this from any of you about the solution? My 2020 Silverado under 4K miles just started doing this today. If I remote start the screen will stay black but if I just use regular push to start it comes on.... calling dealer tomorrow to see if they know of it. Also mine says no update

Will do.  I see several people saying it’s a battery issue. Hope that’s all it is

I have to park the vehicle, turn it off, and then re-start using the vehicles start button to bring the display back on. Anybody else having this issue?

About 1100 some odd miles on mine now and have not had this issue when remote starting.(knock on wood)  I am having almost every time I get in though where it is asking me to confirm which user profile.

My 2020 2500HD with 500 miles is in the shop today with the blank screen on remote start, dead batteries yesterday and several other wired things. Like gauge clusters bouncing and info screen behind steering wheel coming on after truck was turned off. Will let y’all know what this shop says.

Having read these complaints all summer, though not really experiencing anything myself yet, I just thought of an issue we went through with a ford. I just went out an looked and it looks like both the engine ground and battery ground attached at the firewall, may be attached to a painted surface. We had a new 2011 fiesta and after a couple months at start up, the gauges would go nuts and it wouldn't start. Left her stranded a few times. Having dealt with with weird guage activity with an earlier grand cherokee, I figured it would probably be battery related. I went online and found ignition switch recalls and tech bulletins on the fiesta line for the instrument panel acting up and potential dash fires. The tech bulletin that seemed to cure everything, said to scrape away the excessive paint at the engine bay ground attachment points. I took a look and ours were almost completely painted over. Scraped them off and never had another tissue. Taking a look at mine, without disconnecting yet, the actual screws don't look to be painted, but obviously the surface of the firewall they but against is. I have a custom, so fewer electronics to boot up at start up, so maybe that's why I haven't seen a problem yet. I do plan on adding upfitter switches and some other stuff soon and plan to disconnect the ground straps and clean off the surfaces to prevent problems. I also have a short cmutr, so I'm careful about letting it run a little longer after starting to keep the battery topped off. All the control modules new vehicles have, use a lot of juice when booting up, aside from the starter. And then there's the weird, hit the locks again, then hold the remote start button for 5 seconds for the vehicle to fire and fan blowing full blast, using up additional juice at start up.

      Exhaust Question

      By C. Hart · Posted

      I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.

      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"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      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!
