We have a  2024 2500 Sierra that we bought off of the lot.  It is a basic work truck with the 6.6L  gas engine. It has 8000 miles and is currently in the shop needing a valve body for the transmission. It has been in the shop 3 weeks and the part is on backorder.  GM is unable to give information on when the part will be available.  At first it was between 7/31 to 8/13.  The dealer now says 8/14 to 8/26.  The customer service people are nice but have no authority and will not let you speak to upper management. I use the vehicle to tow and the dealer does not have a 2500 loaner.  GMC will not authorize the cost to rent an equivalent vehicle.  They would only state that their policy would reimburse me less than 50% of the cost and I could send them the bill for further consideration.   We have averaged 11.5 - 12 mpg in the city. Highway was 13.5 - 15 mpg.  Towing is another story. On a recent trip to pick up a pontoon boat in Florida we averaged 5.7 mpg at 65 miles per hour.  It tows reasonably well for a gas engine.  The boat and trailer combined weight was around 7800 lbs.  If you are considering using the truck for towing be aware that we have had problems with the trailer brake controller.  Under normal driving conditions, the truck will randomly display "Trailer wiring fault".  During this time that will last from 3 to 60 seconds the trailer has no brakes.  Recently with an 11,000 gross weight trailer and load, we were pushed through a red light with the antilock brakes chattering so bad that I thought that the truck was going to shake apart. GM has stated that they do not have a problem with the controller but if you search the internet you will find many articles regarding this. A dealership checked the controller and said that it was OK. I forwarded a few posts from the internet to my service advisor. A few days later when I called to check on the transmission part, he stated that they checked the controller and found a fault and that they were going to replace it.  

FYI.. the 10 speed in the 1500 is not the same or related an any way to the 10 speed in the 2500/3500 trucks. The 10 speed in the 1500 and some cars was jointly developed by GM and Ford. The 10 speed in the 2500/3500 (gas and diesel as of 2024) was jointly developed by Allison and GM for the 2500 and bigger trucks (only with the diesel at first).

Your HD truck has a different 10 speed than the one used in the 1500's

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.

      Lets see if I can sum up two pages of nothing useful.    You want to refute your own governments data of the "Purchasing Power" Index FOR THE ENTIRE USA and its territories replacing it with the experience of a single family and its business and label that reality?  Then pound on that for a week hoping it will find traction?    Stan, I've told you several times. I don't do irrational. There are more people in the USA than your family.    I'm pretty sure this tread is so blown up. I'll give you a few days or months if need be to post yourself silent then I'll see if I can find enough parts of the train to reassemble it.

      VSE CCV Bypass - Anyone have this installed in their L5P?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Facebook groups hate VSE, poor customer service; their responses to criticisms are pretty poor for a reputable company. I'm not a customer, haven't bought anything from them, but how they handle themselves on social media is a definite "No" for me.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      $10,000 for a transmission?   Pretty sure I could buy all the parts, tools, and education to rebuild it myself for a quarter of that amount.   or swap it out with a new one...
