Just purchased a 2024 Silverado RST with the 6.2l v8, 17k miles. A few days ago I noticed a stutter while driving, lasted about 10-15 seconds then disappeared. Next day it did the same thing again. Later that night the stutter returned much worse, definitely a missfire, then check engine light started flashing and service stability system light came on. Attempted to pull over and before I could come to a stop the lights went off and the missfire disappeared. Drove it home about 20 miles and it ran fine the whole way. Hooked my reader up and it showed 34 active codes the first being p2255 O2 sensor negative current. Next two codes read manufacturer specific blah blah blah, scrolled to the fourth code and all codes dissapeared from the reader. Re-scanned and no codes (active, stored, or pending). Tried another scan tool and that also read no codes. Driven it the last 2 days to work and back with no issues. Today I had a coworker try his 2 code readers for a sanity check and they also show 0 codes. Being intermittent definitely seems like an electronic issue to me but outside that I’m lost. I talked to the dealership and have an appointment scheduled for next week but without codes I don’t have much faith that they will be able to locate the issue. Any insight is appreciated.

Just a guess. Check the ground strap in the engine compartment. Its on the passenger side. It connects the firewall to the frame. Lots of issues have been caused by a poor connection there.

I will check on this tomorrow. Thanks for the insight

Update: Had the service with the dealership and as I feared, they couldn’t find anything wrong or replicate the problem. They did find a P02F5 code which is a fault in the fuel system and a P0300 misfire code but those were not currently active and just in the history so they said they could do nothing unless the CEL returned. Also, with the new recall on the 6.2, they could not address that either as it is still showing pending.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.

      Actual Full Screen CarPlay on Refreshed Silverado/Sierras.

      By Greg3160 · Posted

      Im in the same boat. Carlink adapter comes tomorrow and dev account is in process. Would you he able to send the new instructions my way also? Question, do you have to change code and republish app everytime developer updates? Thanks for your assistance, truly the only thing i cant stand about my truck is the carplay limitation

      Weight limit in bed

      By rav3 · Posted

      And Google AI says......... Yes, your truck can technically handle it, but you will be right at or near its maximum limit. A 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 High Country with a 6.5-foot bed has a maximum payload capacity of approximately 1,770 pounds.Weight RealitiesLoad weight: Half a cord of dry hardwood weighs roughly 1,100 to 1,500 pounds depending on the wood type (like oak or hickory).Payload limit: Payload includes the weight of the wood, you, any passengers, and a full tank of gas.The math: If you weigh 200 pounds and have a full tank of gas, a 1,500-pound load of wood puts you right at that 1,770-pound ceiling.Safety TipsCheck the yellow and white sticker on your driver-side door jamb for your truck's exact payload number, as high-end luxury trims with extra features have slightly lower capacities than basic trucks.Expect the rear end to sag noticeably.Drive carefully, avoid sudden turns or stops, and keep speeds low if you have to travel a distance.
