    Beware of gm remans

    Here's a Bosch LB7 pic I found.

    Who is running AF (alternate firing) order cams, and for how long?

    Um yes you can, you pay for service. Guy sells you what you need, and what fits your budget. He's not going to build you whatever you want necessarily, just like Mike wont build a trans however you want and a good painter wont skip steps to save you money also. Their name is on the line and...

    Who is running AF (alternate firing) order cams, and for how long?

    People like socal because of their service and professional ism. Guy is usually not one to go off on a rant about anything. Real helpful and will sit on the phone until you get things figured out and understood. I'm not saying they invented the wheel though. Their prices are steep but you...

    Beware of gm remans

    JD has gotten pretty greedy lately. And turned enough people off. I will say they did step up and cover a large part of the bill when our cutterhead split on the SPFH we had awhile back before going to claas. I drove to quad cities to get it though which was fine but then had to wait for the...

    That was the pin he was asking about. I was going to ask if you dropped it but forgot it in my last post. A lot of people loose them. Sent from my SCH-R970 using Tapatalk

    That's from removing the lines. It falls down into them. Unless the actual seats were corroded you don't have an issue. Sent from my SCH-R970 using Tapatalk

    Beware of gm remans

    I'd be willing to bet a 30 pack they didn't lie, they just didn't know. If nobody in an enthusiasts board knows why would you expect the parts guys to know? They just sell the parts, they don't keep track of who makes all of them. Just be happy you found one competent enough to order duramax...

    Beware of gm remans

    You were also paying $150 ($350) more for your GM injectors than most of us do iirc . I've never gotten a Bosch dealer locally to price me LB7s under $400. Sent from my SCH-R970 using Tapatalk

    Beware of gm remans

    I think you are seriously over thinking this. For your own truck fine, but for the rest of us doing multiple trucks per year it's impractical. If a part isn't needed it doesn't get replaced. The only injectors I've had to redo since 09 were Pensacolas. So what if other companies don't get...

    removing tire sensors

    Sounds like a lot of effort for a nice system that doesn't cause issues. Never had issues with any of our TPMS. I will say they can be pricey. The VW service kit is dumb. I paid more for an o ring and a nut than I did for the sensor itself. Only need them if you are getting another set of...

    Beware of gm remans

    X2. Lots of companies out there that know what they are doing but the new stuff is very sensitive. Remember, Bosch does make the CP4. They blame all of the OEMs and US fuel but they have enough failures in Europe too. When a CP4 fails it contaminates the rest of the system. Bosch is so...

    Beware of gm remans

    I wouldn't go that far. Its a rebuilt injector. They aren't required to hold a public hearing every time they switch suppliers. Happens all the time, but since these have a high failure rate people want someone else to blame. They still fail no matter what, I certainly would not pay double...

    Beware of gm remans

    Thats the confusing part now. I don't know where specific dealers all source their parts, but everyone always called the Gm ones the "Bosch Remans" direct from Bosch. Now things will be more confusing. I have not purchased a Bosch LB7 injector, but have Purchased others and they do not come...

    Beware of gm remans

    I have only had issues with Pensacola remans in all of the sets I have done. Enough people get rid of their trucks though too so all I can say is I haven't had to replace any other than the Pensacola's. Both sets of Pensacolas I did I had to replace, fortunately one was one of our farm trucks...

    Beware of gm remans

    Called Bosch and story checks out, actually think I probably talked to same guy because he said he just talked to another guy about them. Bosch has not been doing the remans for GM for at least a couple years now he said. Guess I didn't realize it was that long. I've used enough GM remans in...

    Beware of gm remans

    You talking to Joe? If you paid $400 you were overcharged. Walk in price (100% markup) is still slightly lower than $400, and a quick search on the internet finds you them from wholesalers for $200. Buying them through a Bosch dealer will cost you over $400. I buy LLY+ injectors from bosch...
