So, I had an engine light stay on when I started the truck after work today, got 1100 miles on the truck. Got the info below via email from onstar after they investigated. Just curious if anyone else had had this happen, and what/how long at the dealer?

Thanks for any prior diagnosis/timeline.

 

ECM - Engine System P11D5 The Emissions System is not performing as expected. An issue has been detected in the Exhaust Emissions System which monitors and controls exhaust gases released into the air from the engine. If the vehicle is continually driven with this light on, the emission controls might not work as well, the vehicle fuel economy might not be as good, the engine might not run as smoothly and could lead to future repairs.

The problem is probably minor.  That code covers a wide range of items that could be the problem so it would be best handled by the dealer.  I had a similar issue a few months ago about the DEF system and the dash message gave a XX miles before the truck speed was limited to 65 mph.  I drove to the dealer to have service tech look at the dash message and it went away when I turned the ignition off and didn't come back.  I had to make an appointment for the following week to have it looked at.  I have a Banks iDash and I cleared the code so I wouldn't have to look at the engine light all of the time and it never came back on.  I canceled the dealer appointment and the code has never returned.  I may come back someday and I'll deal with it if and when that happens.  I'm not suggesting you do the same thing I did, just describing my issue.

Thank you for the info. I was hoping it would magically disappear with a few engine cycles, and it did not today. Guess I'll run it in to the dealer soon and see what gives.

The check motor light on your 2020 Chevy Silverado will typically stop itself if the issue or code that made it turn on is fixed. For instance, assuming the reason for your check motor light coming on was a free gas cap, on the off chance that it's fixed, the light will switch itself off. In like manner, assuming your exhaust system goes practical, and you did a great deal of unpredictable driving, that might have turned on the check motor light because of the great utilization of the converter. Much of the time, your 2020 Chevy Silverado light will go off after around 20-40 miles. Assuming you roll over that sum and the light is still on, you should acquire it to Hare Chevrolet so the light and code can be twofold checked and reset.

As it turns out, the engine light went off on my way to the dealer appointment... Here is what they had do do, and only took about an hour of waiting.

    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires. 
    • Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
