I put 34" tires on my new truck and now it's 4-5 mph off. From what I can see, the only thing that might work with the 2024 model is the Rough Country speedometer calibration. Can anyone confirm if it will work?

 

I would have liked a Pulse LT but apparently they don't have one for my model... which isn't great. I want to adjust the TPMS warning and I probably have no way of doing it.

I can answer my own question: No, it doesn't work with 2024 models. Hopefully in the future. It looks like for now I have to remember to adjust the speed in my head.

 

A few days ago I was driving about 10% over the speed limit, but I had forgotten to add a few additional miles to my speed. Sure enough, I saw a cop measuring the speed of traffic right in my direction. Exactly at that moment it dawned on me that I was more than 10% over the limit because of the tires. First a quick mental "F@$k!" and then resignation... Fortunately, he was after bigger fish.

I hear you. I kept the wheels and tires from my 23 2.7L Turbo when I traded it for my 23 5.3L V8. They're 275/60R20's. The factory wheels and tires on my 5.3 were originally 255/70R17's, so there's now about a 3.7mph increase at 70mph with the bigger wheels. I set my cruise at 70 and know I'm probably safe, but that's at the trooper's discretion. But, it's so easy to find myself doing 75 on the speedo, and that would probably not be good if I'm clocked.

 

I asked the dealership about a recalibration and they said they don't do them, even with 22" wheels. Don't know if they were just blowing smoke or not, but I've learned to be aware of it, and careful.

You have a 2023? Not sure what model you have, but the Rough Country calibrator is supposed to work with 2023's.

 

I check regularly the Rough Country calibrator site in the hope that someday I'll see that 2024's were added to the list.

Yeah, '23. I'll check on the calibrator. I was hoping that Range would be able to figure out the '23 and up BCM so that I could defeat the DFM at the same time. No luck so far.

I just got off the phone with HyperTech support (800-352-3351). He said it’s the only Speedo recalibration tool for a 2022 through 2026 GM truck (Chevy or GMC). The part number is the inline HyperTech 77100 unit, currently $899.   it is the same unit sold by rough country and summit, etc...  corrects odometer and speedo along with Trans shift pints.  He said it does not require removal when taking your truck to a dealer for service because it is an inline and installs under the hood as per the install instructions. It takes about 30 minutes to install for anyone once the controller is updated and programed from a PC for the tires used on the truck.

100% beg do differ being in the dealer environment.  Many devices like this end up on the data lines that GM uses to communicate between modules, and those lines are also important during vehicle programming.  They most definitely can and have interfered with vehicle programming for sure.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By No1UKnow · Posted

      Hello All!   My 2019 Colorado 3.6 LT, 4WD Crew Cab has approximately 77,500 miles and I recently began experiencing the well-known transmission shudder between about 30 and 65 mph. The problem had worsened to the point that I could no longer attribute it to road conditions - and I had decided to bring the truck to the dealer - when recently, I experienced a sudden loss of power while driving at maybe 40 MPH. Several warning lights flashed, the “Check Stabilitrack” message appeared, and the Check Engine, Stabilitrack, and Traction Control icons remained illuminated. The truck regained driving power, but it stayed in a low gear with unusually high RPMs for the speed. (limp mode?) Because I was only about two miles from home, driving slowly, I was able to make it back and run an OBD-II scan, which showed fault codes U0101, P0700, and U0100. My next trip in the truck was to drive it to the dealer the following day. That trip began normally, but after about a mile I experienced another loss of power, along with the same warning lights and the same “Check Stabilitrack” message. As before the truck remained driveable, but again operated at an abnormally high RPM-to-speed ratio and seemed stuck in a single gear. About a mile later, the dashboard lit up once more, this time displaying “Check 4WD.” Soon after that, I arrived at the dealer. I have verified that the truck still has its original factory transmission fluid, which means it has never received the corrective fluid exchange outlined in GM Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355.  That was Thursday of last week and I've heard nothing yet from the dealer.    According to Technical Service Bulletin #18-NA-355 and the build date of my truck, my truck should have the newer LV fluid. I've done a little research and read something about a problem with the wiring harness as well.   Anyone have an insights into this situation?  Thank you!!

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.
