Mechanically the 2021 and the 2022 LTD are the same.  I don't know for sure, as i have a 2021, you should reach out to the chip tuners to confirm compatibility - I suspect you will like what they tell you!

Pretty much nothing is different, it's all carry over parts on the LTD's.

 

I could only assume that aftermarket plug in programmers for a 2021 work on a LTD 2022. Best to contact whatever company that makes the parts to double check.

According to Range, the software is different in the 22 LTD's vs the 21's. However, I can say that the 22s and 21s are different in some way shape form or fashion has they do not get nor are they rated the same for fuel consumption. My 21 Sierra w/o DFM was rated for 20 on the HWY. My 22 LTD Silverado Is rated for 20 HWY WITH DFM. So something is definitely going on to drop 2mpg that the 21s with DFM are rated. I will say though that the Pulsar LT works just fine with the 22 LTD's. I am running one now.

If the two trucks you had did have different options, that could have changed the fuel mileage ratings. Like rear end gearing, transmissions and tire sizes.

The ECM p/n's for 2021 and 2022 LTD are the same, both the ECM for functioning DFM and the ECM for YK9 DFM disabled.  

 

No reason the Pulsar LT shouldn't work.  2022 refresh are all new ECM #s and they are on the VIP (Global B) electrical platform with all its new encryption bits.

The Pulsar indeed works in the 22 LTD. I am running one myself. What doesnt work according to Range is the ODBII plug in. When I asked them why it lists the plug in as not available for the 22 LTD's, they told me the software was different.

 

I figured they just called the same truck a 22 instead of a 21 myself, other than the MPG difference between the two.

The only difference between the two trucks were the 360 view and the front and rear assist. Nothing that would drastically change their weight. Rear gears are also the same between the two. However, the LTD 5.3L's are all rated lower by 2MPG HWY and 1 CITY. Not sure as to why and cant get a straight answer out of the dealership either. Not to mention, this truck runs hotter that the 21 Sierra. Never saw the Sierra go past 212 while this one will go up to 220.

    • I have a 2000 Silverado 1500 LS, whenever I put it into reverse and also in drive it clunks, the truck also feels sluggish when driving. Any advice/ideas ?
    • Looks like it's riveted to me. What is wrong with that 1? Welcome to the Forum!
    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
