What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[Brom48]

3rd day having the truck so I hit Amazon over the weekend for some LED bulbs, seat covers, and steering wheel cover and it all came today, except for the amber LEDs for upfront. Oh I took off the partition brackets from the B pillar too!

Can I use the Wix 51060 Filter in my Denali. It has no filter bypass as opposed to the 57060 but is longer and thus more filter media.

I would like to know the answer to this.
I think the bypass might be part of the reason i lost the engine on the hoe.
sludged right up and wiped out the rear cam bearings.

I'm sure one could look it up and find the gasket surface and the thread pitch...

Oh and i found my wifes 2011 Buick enclave seems to have a compatible filter, larger filter but i don't think it will hang down below the pan.
I'm thinking i'm going to give it a test on the hoe.

Rain let up so I also vinyl wrapped the emblem and wifey came home from work so I checked the reverse LEDs and brake lights!

Wix 57045 is the longer model for the 6.2l or the 10255, but not quite as long

Hmm, hope it's just the sender or screen

If it's not the sensor, don't do what i did and drive it around thinking "10psi per 1k rpm, check"

I can find an image of the glitter in my oil if needed...



0 psi tho... yeah i think that should be making some noise right about now.

Got both Denali’s detailed today. College kid in the neighborhood who makes his summer money this way. $120 each and he does a stellar job. Meguiar’s wax and all.

LIKE that black emblem.

 

[gooffeyguy]

Pulled the code, P0523 engine oil pressure sensor/switch high voltage.

Now it's reading over 80

 

[gooffeyguy]

Guess I get the fun project of replacing the pressure sender. Yaay

Should I look for a specific brand or just any from the parts store?

Def oem AcDelco.

I was just watching a video on replacing the sender with a socket and wobble socket, there is also a lisle socket for it I believe as well, the guy did it in like 5 minutes, I think I saved it
lisle 13250

 

[gooffeyguy]

And I just placed a Summit order this morning

I'm guessing it's still OK to drive?

ya, unless you hear metal on metal lol

 

[gooffeyguy]

That 80psi on the gauge actually is reading 129psi in the Torque app

That should be enough.

 

[gooffeyguy]

So should I replace the screen that's under the pressure switch or just remove it? Why is it there?

I think it is put there to keep the sensor from getting clogged, some people replace it, some people take it out.
if it's not that hard I would probably just replace it, just do like the guy does in the video.

I removed my screen, but I also don't have the AFM system any more, and don't know if it is necessary if you still have AFM to protect the lifters of AFM system somehow.

I replaced the sensor and the screen the first time. The screen clogged up a second time and I didn't put it back in. I had DOD shut off in the tune though. I'm not sure why its there but I'm betting there's a million of them on the road without one.

 

[Bill 1960]

To me that’s indicative of a sludge problem in the engine when a screen in the pressurized oil gallery is clogging. The more I read about failures in these engines my opinion continues to shift toward dirty oil being the root cause, not DOD per se. I suspect GM set the oil change intervals too long. Of course if there’s a failure beyond the warranty, and they sell a new car, is that really a failure? Or planned obsolescence.
