Did the 2023 Chevy Colorado make it? (THE CHUTE - SAND HOLLOW) + CHECK ENGINE LIGHT!

[@krasnaludek298]

I have to give you credit for wheeling your truck as hard as you do. That’s not a cheap “beater” rig like some of the stuff up here near Rubicon (Tahoe Forest). Another solid video. 👍🏻

[@Downtimelost]

Thanks brother I appreciate it ! I really wanna send it on the rubicon if I ever get a chance with a crew ! 😂

[@TheNorthWestDude]

Seeing your front bumper reminded me of another channel I check out. He had a check engine light for the little blade damper getting stuck when offroading. Pretty easy fix in the garage. I bet that is what happened to yours. It opens and closes for fuel mileage, and if it falls out of the rotator device and gets stuck it throws an error.

[@Downtimelost]

It ended up being a miss fire ! The code went away the next day lol

[@BadlandIndustries]

You almost had it bud. We were down to 10psi and gave it the beans but took out the bumper step in the process.

[@Downtimelost]

Almost had it ! I should have aired down more and those old bronco heads where getting mad at me also so I just took the L lol honestly I didn’t care for the bumpers cuz dv8 is prototyping them on my truck soon but I wish I sent it a bit more ! next time !

[@TrashPandaGarage]

This whole call-Onstar-to-diagnose-your-CEL thing is nuts. Good attempt on the Chute. Maybe time for a selectable locker!

[@Downtimelost]

I know right !! lol I should have aired down more than 15psi and gave it more hell lol

[@mdgeist472]

Can you not check CEL with ODB2 scanner?

[@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson]

6:00 you didn’t fail, you set a benchmark for gauging improvement for the next attempt. the only failure would be not attempting it at all. 🤘

[@Downtimelost]

Perfectly said !! You are right , next time I’ll get it ! 🤘

[@angelowelti7774]

Looks like you really just need a front lock. Hard to tell just arm chairing from my phone lol. Glad to see you getting out and using it. ❤

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah that would be super nice ! I’ll getter next time I promise ! 😂

[@rubenfranko6600]

2018 Toyota Tacoma with the long bed, climbed it.

[@Downtimelost]

She could have made it the bronco boy where getting mad at me lol

[@Gladius_ZR2]

Can't wait to be doin all this stuff, potential of my ZR2 is just sitting idle 🥲

[@Downtimelost]

Let’s do it ! Get that bad boy out rip !

[@rocketcity4x449]

See how the Broncos crawled up The Chute? If you can’t crawl it, you need to try something else- probably less air pressure. Yes, their wheelbases are different and that might have been what was hanging you up, but rarely does more throttle help when trying to crawl.

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah I know , I needed to lower the air pressure forsure I was at 15 but I needed more grip ! Also I was resting on my sliders :/

[@Downtimelost]

[@rocketcity4x449]

Resting on your sliders- sounds like your wheelbase got you. Need bigger tires to help with the break over angle!

[@qmcfarland6427]

this Is Insane.. Great Work!

[@Downtimelost]

Thanks man I appreciate it 🫶

[@jamesfarmer6961]

You ever gonna give the Chute another attempt? Would love to see the Colorado make it to the top!!

[@Downtimelost]

I live in az and sand hollow is far ! :( hopefully soon I’ll get out there !! 🤘

[@jamesfarmer6961]

@@Downtimelost Nice, I recently purchased the 2024 Trail Boss Colorado and Love the truck! I especially enjoy watching your and JT4X4OFFROADING Channel. You both have great content and videos, and inspired me to do some mods!! Be safe out there brother and keep making those awesome videos!!

[@Downtimelost]

@@jamesfarmer6961 thank man !! Comments like this keep me going I truly appreciate all my viewers , thank you !!! 🫶🙏🙏🙏

[@theshowupdadfoundation7632]

I agree with you air down and also it looked like you were way to narrow, as were the broncos were staying up on top due to the width of their stance.

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah I did notice that also , only if I had the zr2 or tb I would be more wide !

[@adamutic]

Damn bro good try! Those shots of your truck on the sand are sick🎥🔥😈

[@Downtimelost]

So sick ! We could have made it !

[@Highflyingdad]

You need a ZR2!

[@Downtimelost]

I know 😩😩😩

[@shiftmotorsports9803]

Textured bedliner spray will have the slider looking like new. Sorry if i missed it, but did you air down?

[@Downtimelost]

I was at 15psi ! I could careless about the sliders lol I’m just bummed I didn’t make it 😩

[@shiftmotorsports9803]

@@Downtimelost lol, me too! Maybe next time

[@KatelynConati-kf1ve]

Send it!!

[@Downtimelost]

Thanks bb ❤️❤️

[@4wdAdventurz]

Man, so disappointing to see all the issues you have with the truck. Youre open diff, right? g80? I cant remember. Keep the content coming dude!

[@Downtimelost]

G80 rear locker ! I should have aired down more and took a little different line :( bummed I didn’t make it but next time I know ! Thanks brother I appreciate it ! 🫶

[@BradyReading]

What add-a-leaf kit did you get?

[@Downtimelost]

Peak add a leaf ! I have a video on it!

[@TurtleTimeTV]

You need to air down more. That being said, I personally wouldn’t try it with my 2021 Z71 so awesome try man!

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah I totally should have aired down more than 15 psi ! Next time I’ll make it !

[@Iraseferovich]

The CEL was prob because of WOT at that angle. Prob nothing to worry about.

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah it went away the next morning 😂 I wasn’t that worried lol but service engine and trans scared me a bit lol

[@Tony-hf9mv]

Forgot you didn't have the ZR2. Need to get lockers on that beast

[@Downtimelost]

I have a g80! But it don’t work to good lol

[@justino4338]

the zr2 is a monster and no doubt the selectable lockers would be way easier for crawling, but this gmc canyon with the same g80 as curtis made this climb: kzbin.infoBkbGtOxXejM

[@Downtimelost]

@@justino4338 yeah badlands made it I should have aired down a bunch more 😭😭

[@supert107]

Come on bro you gotta go back and get that you were right there

[@Downtimelost]

I know 😢 this haunts me to this day ! 😢

[@TurtleTimeTV]

Were you in 4 low?

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah I was in 4low 1st gear !

[@AdmiralBraddus]

Which code did you get specifically for the CEL? Hopefully something simple.

[@Downtimelost]

Not sure the on star lady said it but it went away the next day!

[@AdmiralBraddus]

@@Downtimelost ah glad it went away. When I requested a code once they also emailed me the info, I wonder if it went to your spam or something...either way again glad it went away.

[@alexcarbery8189]

G80 didn’t kick in?..

[@Downtimelost]

It did just couldn’t get traction! I should have aired down more I think and bumped it a little harder before the cel:(

[@Budgetoverlander]

Maybe if you had a real locker 😮‍💨

[@Downtimelost]

Yeah yeah yeah
