New Charm.li update site covers 1960-2025!!! lemon-manuals.la
government is the biggest problem with cars these days; with the hoops carmakers have to jump through for asinine regulations, and the thousands of dollars compliance adds to each car price. ^ This.. I dont pine for the fumes of 1960’s unburned tetraethyl lead laced fuel but certainly the...- Coveman

SOLVED: Lost 5&6th gears
Thank you for getting back Nick, I was hoping I didn’t need the big guns! I did a rinse and repeat of the reset transmission adapts with my Tech 2 (first time was with a different scanner, a launch, and I may not have committed the reset properly) And now it hits all 6 just fine. Of course...- Coveman

Hello from Wisconsin - '03 z71
Welcome! I’ve glued (epoxy or urethane) the center cap’s plastic with success, and also have used a pearl of urethane glue to hold them on the wheel as they weaken with age. They still come off when you want them to it just keeps them from popping off while driving.- Coveman

Discussion - Oil pressure discrepancy over an oil change interval
I have not noticed my oil pressure falling over the life of the oil but it makes sense that viscosity breaks down over time (oil gets ‘thinner’) due to the viscosity index improvers that are broken down by engine shear and high heat, fuel dilution and oil additive consumption The oil filter...- Coveman

Catch can for 2025 tahoe?
I have one installed, like it and no problems. If you are still covered under GM powertrain warranty you’d want to pull it back off before letting a dealer see it and possibly void your warranty.- Coveman

2011 GMC Yukon SLT Flex Fuel 5.3 hard starts when cold
Since the fuel trims are trying to compensate for too much fuel you may have a leaky fuel spider that is dumping gas into the intake. Check that the fuel rail holds pressure steady after you cycle the key on and off.- Coveman

Transmission Rebuild, Collapsed Lifter Debacle - Opinions Needed
That’s a nightmare, sorry to hear about your predicament. I don’t think a legal remedy will give you much relief as it will be tough to prove the shop’s negligence and even if you won a settlement receiving restitution is far from guaranteed. :( How are the transmission shop reviews? Any...- Coveman

washer fluid nozzles are freezing
yes, it is cheaper to make because it has less ethanol in it. I noticed the summer stuff stacked up all over the place during Covid when we were having ethanol shortages. You could also add a bottle of drug store ethanol to the tank to bring down the freezing point
