I just bought a 24 GMC AT4 and the only manuals i received were a quick start guide and a owners supplement that mostly talks about the seat belts. I was just wondering what is standerd. Because the dealer has been a disaster through the whole processes. Thanks

GM dropped the full printed manual coming with the vehicles starting 2023 and pretty much all gone for 2024 except a couple cars.

 

There are multiple methods of reading/obtaining the full manual.

 

- www.gmc.com and you can pull up the entire book online.  Manuals and Guides | Vehicle Support | GMC

 

- The MyGMC app on your phone should have it.

 

- The radio screen itself.  I "think" its in the MyGMC app page in there.

 

- If you really gotta have the printed book, www.helminc.com and you can purchase the printed book at your expense.

It's wild to me that a physical manual is no longer provided with a $100k truck.  At least make it available to those that want it.

Mine was in the glove box along with the silly supplemental thingy. 

 

So, they have one, print one and give it out...

 

Carry on..........................................

If you look at this manual and the one you download, you will find the paper one is not a complete manual.

I have the online one downloaded for quick reference so i dont have to go out and dig out my paper one, if i want to reference something wile inside.... 

 

Do you have a paper one?  i am not going word for word online and paper, but it seems to be just the same. 

 

It would be great if you could find and point out what is missing.

It would be great if you could find and point out what is missing, like what page and information on said page paper manual vs online one. It has already been stated that ( they ) dont make one, now you say its not the same as the pdf online one. So please prove your statement. 

Yes, I have the paper one...same as you have.

 

All you have to do is go to the table of contents and see how much smaller it is...it is CONSIDERABLY smaller. I have it on a tablet so I can reference it if I am on a trip.

 

here is a simple one...go to the lighting section. You will not see this page in the paper manual.

Now that I looked at my paper one, mine might be different than yours. Looks like this:

I have a paper manual in my 2021, but I downloaded the on line pdf manual into my phone’s files app and I use that far more than the paper manual. I still like having the paper manual in the truck, though.

Yep that other manual looks different, as well as the wording on the cover.

 

Maybe the thinking is for the WT for fleet owners as more than just one person might be operating the thing and its helpful to have a paper manual in the glovebox. For some reason the WT seems to be treated different, as it was the only model able to be ordered with the E85 package. ( that wasnt able to be ordered ) because not available????? They say.

The funny thing is, for your truck, the manual I have would be just fine since many of the options are not even on your truck!

 

The E85 is not available on the 6.6L gas engine. They used the smaller engine still for awhile on the WT?

If you go to build and price  build a 2024 3500 gasser, you ( will ) find that on a WT and only a wt pickup is the option to order E85. I went to order one but the build time for a 2 door was unknown, so i found close to what i wanted on a lot, that wasnt ordered with the E85. 

 

And,,,, the manual i posted sais cheby, NOT GMC like the one you posted.  

 

I dont know where you are getting your information, but it seems totally wrong for a 2024 3500 6.6 gasser cheby WT.

My 22 w/t got the full manual. But maybe they all did through 22 as Newdude mentioned.

I hate to have to add this and waist my time...

Go to the ( online manual ) unless you can get ahold of a paper one like i have, i have both online and paper, as i have proven. 

 

 That being said. Go to chevrolet,,,, NOT GMC, and look at the HD manual for 2024 2500s and 3500s gassers. Page 267, gives the information on E85 if the vehicle is equiped for it and how to tell. That is the 6.6 chegy gasser..........

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
