    Useless Information

    Ah, yeah I stopped updating my Fuelly log because it was just depressing :). I have never run E85 because it isn’t available in Canada (or at least not in Manitoba), possibly because it gets too cold here or maybe we don’t have the same incentives to use it so it’s not cost effective. Not sure...

    Transmission fluid flush with filter change

    Hi Shannon, It varies depending on which variant of the transmission you have, but the information is right there in your owner’s manual. :) Mine is a 2009, and I have the six speed. I believe yours is still the four speed, so I won’t give you my capacities, but in the manual under the...

    Drivers windshield washer

    Thanks for this thread folks! My passenger side has suffered from almost non-existent flow since I bought the truck. I just lived with it since the driver’s side usually sprays far enough to make up for it. ;) Come some warm weather I’ll give this a shot too.

    OBD2.......What do you have ?

    I second BlueDriver if you don’t want to spend too much money (I paid about $100 CAD). That’s what I used until I got my Tech 2 Chinese clone from eBay. That’s where it’s really at if you can swing it. It’s not crazy expensive either considering what you can do with it and the money you’ll save...

    Wife's parking

    I have no comment. :) My wife drives an itty bitty (by comparison) Chevy Cruze and as much as she loves the XL as our family hauler, camper tower, etc, she loves being a passenger in my ride and is terrified to drive it herself.

    Is that all you guys can do on your trucks?? Psshhhh indeed. I reached the governor at I think it was 153 or so completely stock!! Oh wait, I’m in Canada. That’s 153km/h :)

    BCM changes? Dealer only?

    @LanceD I ordered this one from eBay, seller is “discountparts_90”. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=222552451148&view=all&tid=2033498562012 Make sure you specify GM English V33.004. When you get it and can’t quite get the card into the top slot, just use a pair of...

    fuel pump change

    This is great because I never need to purchase anything from there before my 5% code expires. It’s nice to have a code from here at the start of the process instead of at the end. :)

    I didn't know we had discount codes for RockAuto here. Good to know, thanks Wes!

    Oil pressure sensor woes - are there different varieties?

    Hey James, Ahhhh, that little tidbit seems like the missing link. We’ve got a blizzard coming this weekend, so I’ll probably give it a go next weekend. I was definitely not trying to slide that tab up, hence my difficulty. Thanks James! I’ll let you know how it goes.

    p0420 help

    Hey Matthew, From the service manual, short and long term fuel trims should be "Near 0%". The HO2S sensors for both banks, sensors 1 and 2, just state they should be "10 - 1000mV and varying". In my truck, both "sensor 1"s pulse pretty regularly from about 65mV to under 900mV. Sometimes they...
