Looks like I might be taking my truck back to stock and trading it off. Does anyone have any low mileage take off tires they want to get rid of? I kept my factory rims, but sold the tires off... unfortunately. LOL.

 

Let me know. :)

 

I'm in Dallas Tx btw.

The problem is:

We come in here thinking . . .hmmmm, maybe I could sell those factory wheels and tires :lol:

Then we read your post :crazy: maybe I'd better keep them.

 

Sorry, mine are not for sale.

LOL... I guess I'm hoping to find someone that just upgraded tires rather than wheels and tires. :crazy: Trading with non-stock tires (within reason) is no big deal, but trading in on 18's isn't so coo. :lol:

 

:D

How soon you looking to do this?

 

I live a few hours south of you if you'd want to drive a little and may be looking to ditch my stockers in about a month or so.

Honestly? Within the week ideally. :lol:

 

BTW... I'll be selling these pretty soon if anyone is interested. ;)

 

Diamo 8 Karat 8 lug chrome 18"x9" wheels with Nitto Terra Grappler AT 285/60 R18s. They have less than 5K miles on them and are perfect. I got a smoking deal on the set at $2,000 so I'd let them go for $1,400 OBO or $1,200 with a good set of factory take off tires in trade. :crazy:

 

Here they are on the truck...

Well,it's going to be atleast a month before I do anything and I wouldn't really want to go with an 18" rim but it looks really good on your truck.

 

Good luck with the swap.

Thanks for the interest Frank. I think I found some local to DFW actually.

 

The 18's are great on these trucks unless you're really into rock scrambling... of course then again you wouldn't be using a diesel for that anyway unless you just like breaking front suspension parts. LOL.

I have a set of stock tires for sale. They only have about 5K miles on them. Drop me a line and let me know.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By newdude · Posted

      You need a better code reader/scanner.  You are missing codes.  Did the dealer give you a copy of the SAVI scan from that visit?     If the fluid hasn't been changed, change it.  Shudder will likely go away.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By newdude · Posted

      TLDR to my other post...   Hard. Pass.  Too many what ifs.     Are you set on a 3.0 Duramax?  Have you considered anything not GM just in case?  If you don't have to have a pickup, lots of other options for $27,000 out there.

      I see some red flags.   - No mention in the Carfax if the oil pump belt was changed.  LM2s had a 150,000mi service interval, and its got 164,245mi on it.  So right out the gate it needs about $3000-3500 for that to be done before driving it another 150,000mi.  Belt is at the rear of the engine.     - If something happens to the transmission valve body, the special coverage is expired by mileage.  That will likely be an out of pocket expense, with zero or near zero GM participation if something happened even though its in by time.   - 2020 LM2s seem to need timing chains after 80,000mi at some point.  They fixed this end of 2020/starting 2021 model year engines.  They will usually set a P0016 I think?  There is another $8000-10,000 if it needs a chain.  The main chain is at the back, secondary at the front so the pump belt would be done at the same time if it needed chains.     - Long oil change intervals.  7,000-8,000mi on average, probably close to 0% or perhaps to or beyond 0% on the OLM.  Lots of them not at the dealer which makes me wonder how much of the oil ran through that truck was the proper Dexos D rated 0w20 oil and not just gas engine 0w20, which is not the same at all.     - Long fuel filter changes, again likely taking the fuel filter life to 0% or more.  First one went 28,603, second was done 43,094 miles later at 71,697, from there another 46,452mi to 118,149mi, and then the most recent one 37,026mi later at 155,175mi.  So counting its original fuel filter, its had only 4 fuel filters on it.  No bueno IMO.         Good news?    - It has had only two warranty trips to the dealer.  The first free service (end of December 2020 on the Carfax), and the transmission reprogram recall (end of August 2025 on the Carfax).     - Truck did a LOT of moving, so that might explain the lack of emissions related repairs like bad NOX sensors, bad exhaust temp sensors, bad glow plugs, etc.         The "emissions system checked" could just be how something was flagged for Carfax.  GM dealers have to do SAVI reports for warranty repair orders so they scan the truck.  So its possible that is there for that?

      Thank you, @Z45!   NOTE - No all repair shop/Dealers reports to Carfax   That is my main concern.  The CARFAX looks way too clean for a 6 year old anything with 164,245 miles.  Even something known for reliability (like many Toyotas) typically has a lot more replaced, like a Nav screen, interior trim, shock/strut, or brake pads.  And surely the last set of tires (installed at ~58k miles) would be bald unless those were all highway miles.   I'm tempted to pay a local dealer to look up the VIN, but am not sure if that will be worthwhile.  Last time I did this, it was 100% useless, and I felt scammed - they noted the bumper was replaced years ago and that's it.  A 5-year old could spot the accident damage, even though nothing was on the CARFAX.   After giving the dealer a call, the truck may have a hard shift, but they have to verify with their mechanic if that's even a concern.  And I've test driven about a dozen of these now, many near Chicago, and half the trucks shift hard/odd at all throttle positions.  The ones with aftermarket lifts/larger tires shift terrible, and 3 stock trucks shifted so violently I thought the transmission valve body was going out.   At this point I'm conflicted, as I need a vehicle, and am coming up short locally.  Northern trucks in this price range tend to have either multiple owners, a lot of mods (lifts/oversized tires without re-gearing), and are generally in rougher shape.   If this truck showed up in your neighborhood for $27k and you had to purchase it sight-unseen, with the possibility of needing a 10L80 rebuild, torque converter, or rear end - would you do it?  I'm convinced most of the 10L80 trucks I test drove are broken, they can't all shift so bad, with massive flares/slipping/lurching and mis-matched downshifts like a teen driver learning stick.

      2027 GMC Sierra Spot Shots + Undisguised Interior (BIG Changes!)

      By Griffin Donovan · Posted

      From the spy shots, the front end does look like it's borrowing some styling cues from the Canyon. I'm more interested in the powertrain news than the screens though. If the 3.0 diesel survives into the next generation, that alone will keep a lot of current owners interested.
