    LMM: Trans overheat

    I'd check with a scan tool as well to see what temp is showing in data. But if your converter was making noise, debris from it can plug a cooler.

    LMM mileage better

    Interesting. My co workers stock 2015 LML gets a combined 19.7 commuting to work. I'll ask him tomorrow what he gets when he tows his 12k lbs 5th wheel

    LLY: Lly issues

    Pump primer on filter head assembly and see if it ever gets hard to push anymore. If it doesn't would indicate leaking and drawing in air. Also sometimes just pumping it up will show a leak at the filter head. I've seen it slot around fuel heater

    Does Oil Go Bad?

    I think you're ok. Especially sealed container. I think the shelf life is really for the manufacturers of the oil to protect themselves from persecution and blame of a failed component by using their oil. But that's just my ridiculous thought :D

    2005 Tahoe DRL not working

    They should not be on all the time. The rears are driving lights that should only be on with headlights.

    Allison oil pump assemblies

    It's amazing how many components we have in our vehicles that are made from powdered metal.

    Allison oil pump assemblies

    My 5 speed with 172k miles was bad when Mike rebuilt my trans for me last month. He showed me pump. Interesting I must say though in regards to 6 speeds. Mike, do the trans show or have a telltale sign when pump is wearing out? I figure line pressure is dropping so would it show up as constant...

    New new. Upgrading advice please.

    Kind of curious what emissions regulations are in Hawaii on diesels? If any that is. Or is the state I live in the only troublesome one lol

    Info: Looking at first Duramax ????

    Issues were software compatibility with existing parts on vehicle. Otherwise a 2013 and up duramax could also have a pump grenade as well. Just want to make sure you can get it covered

    Allison 5sp: Cooler debris

    I'd be surprised if anything gets left behind with that trans cooler flush machine you have.

    Wheel bearing replacement and TPMS

    Only thing weird that could be going on is if that wheel bearing is giving off some weird frequency/hertz noise that is throwing off the tpms sensor for that RF area. Like you said, if you relearned the tpm then the system should see a problem with with LR or RR sensor. Aftermarket or factory...

    Help: OEM trailer brake controller faulty with aftermarket bumper??

    What are the codes? I thought you could turn off park assist through your DIC, that way you won't have to see service park assist but otherwise that will always be up as long as parking sensors are not there. Post your codes for service brake assist message.

    F150 ecoboost - Any Insight?

    I guess then you hope they fail while you still got some warranty left. Otherwise an old fashioned pushrod engine seems to be just fine.

    Lly oil leak

    Not really sure. But that's the only area I can think of that's in the valley if it's at front towards cp3. I've more so only seen the turbo feed pipe at valley connection or at the rear flywheel housing for the turbo drain pipe. I guess my only real advice would be put some oil tracer dye in it...

    F150 ecoboost - Any Insight?

    SmokeShow, from my understanding there are a lot of manufacturers out there with overhead cam engines that have timing chain and phaser issues. This from talking with other dealer techs I know outside of GM. But I think a lot can be prevented with quality oil and prompt oil changes. Don't follow...
