    Dealership suggests new engine. Your take?

    We drove from Cape Coral to Miami a couple weeks ago for a flight to Costa Rica. Left our car at the hotel and picked it up 10 days later on the way back. Drove it back to Cape Coral. Check engine light didn't come on. Truck drove fine. Oil pressure a little above 40 on the highway and a bit...

    Thanks. Hubby changed oil to 5w30. We will see how that goes.

    We are currently using 0w20 weight synthetic Mobile 1. Hubby plans to put in 5w30 weight synthetic Mobile 1. He is dictating as I don't know just enough to be dangerous. And I'm 75 years old. So there's that.

    Dealership suggests new engine. Your take?

    Thank you. I sent for the test kit but am wondering about the mechanical test. I spent $180 for the diagnosis at the Chevy dealership. Isn't this something that should have been included?

    Dealership suggests new engine. Your take?

    My husband and I bought a used 2018 Chevy Tahoe with the 5.3 engine that everyone seems to hate a year ago. It now has 109,000 miles on it. In the spring we got a check engine light that suggested the oil sensor was the problem so we got a new one put in. A few months later, same thing, got...
