Hey all, First time posting on here but I've run into some issues with my dad's 2015 Silverado 2500HD 6.0 and wanted to see if I can get some help... So a few weeks ago it just started running like crap, Its idling rough and while driving will start jerking, Basically running too lean and too rich and causing misfires. But then there's days when it drives completely fine. So I put it on my ODB2 running torque pro and originally it just showed codes for both the O2 sensors (Bank 1, Sensor 1 and Bank 1 Sensor 2) I changed them out and no change! Since then Im getting a bunch of other codes now (P0101, P0135, P0300, P0324, P0171, P2097, P0174, P0030, P0053, P0133, P0137, PO132), Im leaning towards one of cats being clogged and if that's the case should i just cut them open and bore them out and have someone weld the openings back? And also is there 3 Cats on these trucks? I was kind of thinking because you can get a decent amount of cash for turning in the cats for the precious metals if it would be worth it going that route? If turning them in could possibly pay to have the exhaust work I want to have done that would be cool! I really just want to get this thing fixed and I would like to do Muffler delete and install a Y-Pipe duel exhaust with some decent sized tips on it, Most likely Keep the resonators... I honestly hate the way the single exhaust looks on these from factory and I don't have emissions here in Florida, I've seen a few videos and it's pretty simple and cheap to get these setups sounding great! But any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all

Did you use OEM oxyegen sensors?  GM vehicles don't like aftermarket O2 sensors installed in them.  Won't read right and will trip more codes.   

 

I don't see a P0420 or P0430 on your list of codes so don't jump to a plugged cat just yet.  You've got O2 sensor codes though.

 

P0030 - HO2S Heater Control Circuit Bank 1 Sensor 1

 

P0135 - HO2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 1

 

P0133 - HO2S Slow Response Bank 1 Sensor 1

 

P0137 - HO2S Circuit Low Voltage Bank 1 Sensor 2

 

P0132 - HO2S Circuit High Voltage Bank 1 Sensor 1

 

P0053 - HO2S Heater Resistance Bank 1 Sensor 1

    • 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. 😉       
    • I gotta say, I'm enjoying your narration. The troubles you've been having are amusing as you describe them. It's good to see that you're finally getting some satisfaction out the old beast though.
