Been waiting 5 weeks on mirrors, which is no big deal. What is big deal is that they won't email me back with an approx ship date, and my card has already been charged?????

 

I guess its no biggie..I'll give them a few more days to respond and then I'll call my credit card co. and take care of it!

I think it's illegal to charge your credit card before they ship you product. Threaten them with a fraud lawsuit and see where that gets you.

Try the BBB (search for it at Google) and see if they have a phone number for them.

No Phone Number, no address other than Brentwood, CA? Sounds fishy to me... I hope you're not getting skaroood!

Me and you both buddy.. I've been posting about this for like 6 weeks now. They hit me up for $315 and won't return my emails now. The card was charged within hours of ordering. I threatened with the whole "charge before you ship" deal and their response was "PAYPAL charges your card, not us so it's legal". Also claimed to have problems with distributors. Since then...no response at all. I'm starting to think I'm just out some loot because you can't find a number anywhere.

go over to Chevytruckworld  they all have their trucks there...send them a message from there.

 

 

 

 

 

when you say "they have all their trucks there" what do you mean? I didn't see anything about SIK on that site?

 

I caught up with Matt via PM at another site. He says they are still having trouble with distributors for what it's worth.

 

I asked him to come over here and explain so we'll see what happens.

    • WOW, something we agreed on. I only bought at sticker twice. A 94 impala ss and an Acura intagra type r. Made money on the first. Still have the second.
    • I prefer new, but not without a deal. Historically I've bought severely aged new inventory, leftover model year, unpopular configuration kind of stuff that sits around on dealer lots until they just want it gone. $10k off MSRP kind of stuff on a mid-priced truck. That really, really helps knock down that first year depreciation. It also requires being somewhat flexible on colors and options. I wouldn't buy a 4 cylinder if I was looking for an 8 cylinder, but if I got blue paint instead of black, or a great deal was lacking a minor option, I'm willing to overlook those things for savings.   Used <> used. Condition and history are everything. If I'm buying used I'm looking for cream of the crop. The truck from the guy who religiously pampers it, and then decides a year later he wants newer and nicer. NOT the ex-rental vehicle, or the crew cab traded in by the family with 7 kids who like to throw food, and the oil only got changed when there was time long after the oil life monitor started alerting.
    • @Grumpy Bear the conclusion from your post about doubling engine life has me curious. Are we literally talking an expected life of 250,000 miles potentially becomes 500,000 miles with a step up in filtration for fresh oil at "the oil factory" when it's bottled? I know you said that's a single variable among many, but, that's significant if the implication extends that far into a real world use case. I would think the oil marketing folks would really eat that up and make it known.   Particles introduced during oil change is a fairly easy one to avoid, but probably not intuitive as one would think. I.e. using a clean funnel. But...what was it wiped with? Paper towel leaves behind little fibers. A solvent if not dried is not something one would want to introduce into their engine with clean oil. And, keeping the oil filler neck clean and free of buildup.. Look at some guys engine bays and they're an absolute mess. Some say that's better than the drawbacks of cleaning it. I'm not a buyer of that idea.   I've also wondered if "flooding" the top end of the engine with oil while filling is a bad idea. During normal lubrication the oil flows in a gutter back into the galleys. But if you flood the area you're potentially washing the top of the rockers, springs, and other areas which may not get much oil wash normally, and you're mixing all that into the new oil. I just don't have the patience to pour slowly. 😆    
    • It was a bad pump, i had a dealer next day the pump. Gm part #86591535. Tools needed 10mm socket, pliers for hose clamps, 1/2gal of Dexcool. About 30mins to remove and install, pump located near oil filter on driver's side frame rail. I had a local mobile mechanic delete the code, he had a snap on scan tool. My scanner could not delete the code. I drove back home about 700 miles since then, and no check engine light. Hope this helps someone in the future in the same situation i was in. Thank you to all that helped me.
