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.

      Spot on. The government makes ridiculous mandates, and this causes manufacturers to jump through hoops for every TENTH of a MPG. Main reason quality is in the toilet and prices are in the stratosphere.   The gov't tightened the MPG requirements so much 5 years ago that the only way manufacturers could meet these absolutely ridiculous numbers was to go all EV. Hence the push.     Nobody hates good MPG, Atlas - nobody is "whining". Your side has that trait all locked up. What a stupid argument attempt!   What I particularly hate is the government meddling in the free market system. Had this system been allowed to work as designed and intended by our Founders, cars and trucks would be hitting numbers that would blow our minds, all while costing 30% LESS. Not only that, but engines could probably hit 150k miles again without needing major internal surgery.   My forty year old Ford 302 has 312k on it. Wonder what changed?🤔

      Starting a new thread regarding mounting my 2014 OEM wheels to my 2026

      By revmanii · Posted

      The BORA 3/8" spacers arrived yesterday along with the extended lug nuts. I got the front wheels changed out today, but was overheated and covered in sweat so bad, I figured getting both front wheels done was a win, and took a cool shower. Hopefully, I'll go out tomorrow morning before it gets into the 80+ temps and do the backs. After getting the first wheel snugged up, I backed out one of the lug nuts then hand turned to count threads. I believe I stopped counting around 12-13, so I think I'm good there.

      My fullsize truck is averaging over 26mpg so I'm pretty happy with the increased fuel economy targets. When I had my gas Silverado (2020 5.3) it was averaging 21. Again, for a fullsize truck, that's very different from the 12-15 these things used to get 30 years ago.   Whine all you want, increased MPG is a good thing.

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

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That is a fair point, and I think an OBD-first proof is probably the right next step. I agree that the value is not the hardware box by itself. The marketable part would be the software: always-on capture, baseline learning, event reduction, system-specific reports, and alerts. Also agreed that if an OBD device is always plugged in and has local storage, it should not miss the event in the same way that a scanner plugged in after the fact would. The only thing I would not want to assume yet is that an ELM327-class device gives all the late-GM data needed at the rate needed. Standard OBD live data, DTCs, freeze frame, Mode 6, VIN, and calibration information are definitely the right starting point. GDS2 also proves that a lot of useful ECM data can be viewed through the DLC without needing a DTC first. The question I need to test is whether the data needed for a useful GM V8 event report is actually available through the DLC, and at a useful sample rate: - misfire counts / roughness by cylinder - AFM/DFM state - oil pressure and oil temperature - fuel trims - voltage / reset context - U-codes and communication events - calibration / software information - whether these are standard PIDs, enhanced DIDs, Mode 6 data, GDS2-only data, or not available So I think the right benchmark is: 1. Build the OBD-only version first. 2. Keep it plugged in and logging locally. 3. Compare it against GDS2 / freeze frame / HP Tuners or another higher-end logger. 4. Measure which parameters are available and at what update rate. 5. Only justify ECM-side hardware if it captures useful evidence the OBD version cannot. So you may be right: the consumer product might simply be an always-plugged-in OBD event recorder with much better reporting. A question for you: when you say ELM327 devices can already deliver all the data needed, do you mean generic OBD Mode 01 data only, or GM enhanced data as well? For a useful GM V8 report, would generic OBD data be enough, or would you expect the tool to include enhanced items like misfire by cylinder, AFM/DFM state, oil pressure/oil temp, U-codes, and calibration information?
