Sold my 2019 TB a year ago to Carvana.  Thinking about getting back into a 2022 in a couple months.  Just curious if anyone has heard, read or insights otherwise on what is the likelihood that the Rear Window Leak, Radio Glitches and Low Res Rear Camera issues might be GM factory resolved by then?  It's been 3 years of lots of buyer noise, TSBs in that space, what are the chances?

Wait for the refreshed 2022 model. They're selling 2022 Limited right now as a stop gap....and it's actually a downgrade.

And for what it's worth, I haven't had a single one of those issues with my truck. I think the majority are good...sometimes the rabbit hole of the internet causes you to think something is a much bigger issue than it is. Remember they sold almost 600,000 Silverado's in 2020....the amount of people online with issues is a small fraction of that.

Nothings been fixed just more problems found during the 3 years, just look at the topics here with endless page counts.  Why would you get into the same when you know of all the problems.  Move onto another brand.

Until GM shifts its focus from solely bottom line profit, it will continue.  Just look at all the various issues going on that are public ... and Id bet at the root is they earned an extra penny by shifting to  supplier X from Y and quality falls off a cliff.

The backup camera on my friends 21 High Country is much much much better than my 2019, so improvement has been made there, also his rear window hasn’t leaked.

      Slate Electric Truck

      Most say the oil temperature needs to above the boiling point of water to rid it of moisture and long enough to dry it. Many think that is about a hour at 212 F or more. Those people have never line dried cloths in a Midwest winter. Leave a pan of water sitting on the counter and eventually it all evaporates. So heat drives the time it takes. Water in oil under 175 F, the Nitration initiation temperature, is a minimum then for temperature and samples I've done that use Karl Fisher method say about a hour (in a healthy well tuned motor) over 175 F will dry it to under 800 ppm. Low enough to not be much of a factor. Motors with weak rings will take longer and the colder the air temperature the longer it takes.   On a cold motor there is also the condensation temperature. Blowby gases that contain moisture are subject to that cold cylinder wall, like sweat on a glass of ice tea. But also subject to the Law of Partial Pressures. Wear studies by GM and the DOD  indicate wear is a real issue below 85 F and a concern to 140 F but doesn't become a minimal factor until about 160 F. You know this intuitively when you see water vapor exit the exhaust pipe until the system gets above the dew point. It isn't magic, it's physics and it fascinates me. I know you didn't ask but....I over share sometimes. 😉    You keep the Camaro's high and tight.

      Move further away.   Benefit of living out - none of our cars get short cycled, plenty of warm up time.   Curious how much time/temperature it takes to drive moisture/condensation out of the engine?

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      Switch a a 100% synthetic trans fluid, Amsoil works for me.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By DustMcGrath · Posted

      First of all sorry, I know there are a ton of transmission temperature threads...   My truck is a 2025 LZ0 High (10l89 10-speed) High Country with NHT max trailering package. The NHT package is supposed to have "enhanced cooling."   Normally the trans temp sits around 200. It seems like with any real stress it quickly jumps into the 220s (for example climbing a grade unloaded at lower speeds). I haven't towed much with this truck, but I'm concerned if it gets this hot unloaded.    I've tried a few different things to keep the temps down (tow/haul mode, sport mode, low range when that makes sense) and nothing seems to affect it.    I'm curious if others are the same behavior or if anyone has found techniques to keep the temps down. It seems like it just can't handle reduced airflow at lower speeds, even with relatively light loading.    Thanks!

      2027 3.0 l Duramax

      By cautious optimist · Posted

      I'm at 105,000 miles on my baby Duramax. No issues yet. I hit 31 mpg's traveling through hilly terrain to a project in Colorado. I will buy another 3.0. I'm not concerned.
