    GM 3.0L Duramax diesel known problem in the cold with no fix

    Hopefully you have winterized diesel in your area. Fuel gelling? The engine should save any non check engine light codes that could shed light to that. I had a +5 deg cold start this week. No block heater, fired right up. I am now running Power Service fuel additive with anti gel. The previous 3...

    GM 3.0L Duramax diesel known problem in the cold with no fix

    Have a 2024 3.0. Was 3 deg F in the morning, oil temp was 9 deg. Plugged it in for 3 hr, went up to 20 deg and started w/ no issue. I think there was a software update for earlier years that fixed that fan issue

    Interesting vid on warranty denial on GMC

    Its not like the old days, when a wire went from the battery to a fuse to the switch on the dash to the bulb... There was no control module that you need a scanner to talk to command the indicator light (bulb) to see if its connected and drawing the correct current, then turn on, if not throw...

    I just found this thread of your journey. My weight would yo-yo between summer and winter. Had to run and cycle come springtime to drop the 20 lbs and as I got older , it got harder to do. Searched for years for "diets" nothing worked or made sense until I found low carb / keto and how bad the...

    Ram Customer Care Response to 0w20 Oil Question

    If the bearing tolerances between the SO and HO are the same? Why would they have two different oil requirements? The output of the HO necessitates thicker oil for the bearing film oil thickness at low RPM? The 0W20 may be for efficiency. Lake Speed Jr, The Motor Oil Geek has this video on the...

    Scored on this. It applies to GM Duramax 6.6 24+, 3.0 23+, Tundra 14+, Tacoma 24+ years Got the standard unit in 2 days $205. Must be a compatible issue as I didn't get all the data on my 3.0 even with the updated firmware.

    It started years ago when my father had a 70's VW Rabbit diesel w/ 48 glorious hp. This was shortly after the oil embargo and gas lines. When I got to use it before my own car, I could drive it all day and barely move the fuel gauge. If I had to I would put 1$ in. Later in life I had a inboard...

    I did 4+ hrs nonstop w/ no issue. Prefer the "firm" seat. I remember my fathers early 80's F150 and the bench seat. It was horrible on the lower back. Needed a cushion for long drives. And they drove that all over the country.

    Here is the 6 mo update. I love it. Did a couple of 400 mile road trips, super comfortable, can sit all day in it. Added a rear under seat big bin for stuff. Solid BAKflip Tonneau cover, Cap for the diesel fill, and just installed a Banks idash. The oil was overfilled from the factory, from what...
