Hiya.

 

I just bought what is supposed to be a 2007 Chevy Tahoe 5.3L LMG Engine, 4x4 4L60e Transmission, LMG .

 

The thing showed up without the ECM and PCM. They shipped me the ECM today, but no PCM. Now I'm getting steamed and need to do some research.

 

1. First, did I get the engine and 4x4 tranny stated above? The bar code on the oil pan is 10CFA WO62212428291, and the barcode on the tranny is 617KLDY44621753.

 

2. The ECM barcode is 86YPKAM16271KZGJ, serv. no. 12597121. Is this the right ECM for this engine? If not, what code or serv. no. should I be looking for?

 

3. When I tell them to send me the missing PCM, what bar code or serv. no should they be sending along for this engine and transmission package...assuming they sent what they said they sent.

 

Thanks!

I m guessing you bought it over the internet or something. If it s a new body 2007 I think you mean it has a ECM (engine) and TCM(Trans). There different ones for the different engines for sure.Sorry I cant answer your other questions but are they programming them? And dont forget the crank re learn needs to be done.

 

Welcome, I see you drive a Ford. :lol:

This is a great board...thanks for your continued help gents...even if I do drive a Ford and a Jeep...I now own a nice, fresh chebby small block and 4l60e!

 

By the way, this setup is going into a 1992 Jeep wrangler. So I'll probably have to get a bunch of other nick naks, like accelerator pedal position sensor, etc....and I'll have to program out a bunch of stuff that the Tahoe has and the Jeep won't have that the ECM will be looking for.

 

You are absolutely correct Cerbo, I have the ECM and I need the TCM. I will bug Schram, the Michigan internet parts company that sold it to me, to ship me the TCM. And both need to be programmed and the crank relearn needs to be done...thanks for the heads up on that.

 

-That should complete the special modules I need to get this setup running, am I correct? Are there any other little computers that this setup needs to run?

 

-BlueGorilla, I will also ask Schram if they have a record of the VIN for this engine. They may not. Is the VIN marked on the block or engine somewhere? If so, I'll get it and come back here to post it.

 

Again, it is supposed to be an LMG from an 07 Tahoe-and it is an iron block for sure.

 

Many thanks for your help.

The VIN is the Vehicle Identification Number...look at the lower drivers side corner of the windshield. Did you get this thing from a junk yard for parts?? Are they shipping it to you in pieces? I'm really confused :rolleyes:

I think he just bought the engine and tranny, not the vehicle.

Correct me if I am wrong but...Don't engines and transmissions have the VIN# stamped on or something? I know my previous vehicles did.

      6.2L L87 Powertrain Engine Noise (Lifter Failure) Question

      By clowe1243 · Posted

      Got the truck back today.  Called them yesterday to get an update, and miraculously my truck is finished?!?! The $13k out the door was complete bullshit!  Ended up being over $14k.  They added some bullshit service bulletin that I cant even find, where they replaced my radiator without telling me or asking me, and charging me for it.  Need to do more research into it, cause they leaked the first delivered radiator was ran over by FedEX.  Sounds like bullshit to me. 2.5 Months for an engine swap, which ended up being remanufactured, not new; ****ing ridiculous.  Brakes are squishy as hell, not sure if its from sitting.  Will give a couple days to see it that figures it self out.  GAVE IT BACK TO ME WITH 1 GALLON OF GAS!  Just filled the tank the day before drop off, more bullshit.  My dash cam SD card was formatted, not really much I can do about that. 3 year, 100k GM warranty at least.  Time to sell it and say **** off to GM.  Bad experience.  Cant wait for the survey email to come through.  Overpriced Raptor R, here I come!

      If I forget the phone in the truck, and forget the truck in the phone, and reconnect.  It works great for the day.  Truck sits overnight, and the next day is a no go.  It will connect Android Auto via usb cable, but not bluetooth.   Ive tried Everything in this thread so far, and nothing works for more than a day.   I think I might have to go to the dealer and have them flash the pcm.   thanks for all the suggestions guys. 👍

      primary drive belt tensioner

      By Bill Lemmond · Posted

      2022 2500HD Crew Z71 Duramax single alternator.  Recently had the primary (water pump / fan) belt tensioner pulley bearing to fail while hundreds of miles from home of course the plastic pulley melted and belt shredded which took out some wiring. Found a replacement tensioner assembly and belt to continue now would like to find a replacement for just the pulley and bearing to have a spare assembly in case of a repeat, the rest of the tensioner is fine. Has anybody here found a correct replacement part for just the pulley and bearing? Any help is appreciated.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Atlas · Posted

      +1 for the 3.0   Perfect for 1500 pickup towing duties.   Perfect engine for a 1500 pickup period. Huge torque at stunningly low RPM makes it feel a lot lighter than it is. The fuel mileage is insane for a tall and heavy 1500... 30+ on the highway. Mid 20's around town.   It's probably not perfect if you bought a 6.2 for the braaaaaaapppppp V8 noises and wrapping it out to 6k. The LZ0 acts and sounds like a small turbo diesel and there's nothing you can do to make a small turbo diesel sound like a big one, and you can't make an inline diesel sound like a V8 diesel/big Duramax. It's a different driving experience altogether.   Drive one, I think you'll like it, though...

      I'll bet your truck lost the bearings on a roller on 1 of the lifters, and now is wiping out a cam lobe.
