HOW TO Install Banks Stealth Pod for iDash 2024 Silverado ZR2 3.0 Duramax Diesel

[@CodeNinja79]

Had an iDash in my Canyon, which transitioned to the Silverado shortly after the pods became available. Absolutely a great addition to the truck. Really easy to install, too.

[@AhoyGuy]

Dropped a like for the airbag safety warning! I like to cut corners. I appreciate your detailed videos.

[@DemonWorks]

I appreciate the kind words !

[@truraza]

I just did this. Removing the fuse panel cover will free up the two lower tabs on the left side panel. Had to watch your vid to see which truck to select for my 2024 AT4. Thanks for keeping us informed!

[@PK-vd3vo]

Which one did you choose? ...I also have a new 2024 AT4.

[@bankspower]

Thanks for the informative video! Looks like it may be time to upgrade to a dual iDash Stealth Pod!

[@MauriceJonesJr]

FYI, you can set a background alert for REGEN ON and the gauge will flash letting you know it is active. Just an idea since you are not monitoring the ON status on your primary screen.

[@DemonWorks]

Boom ! Well done, sir! Not sure why I didn't think of that! I like it ! thanks !

[@4961Studebaker]

What value from 1-10 are you selecting in the alerts to trigger ON to ACT (active). I’ve had mine on 10 but do not see an altert. I changed to 1 (one) today so I’ll have to wait till the next regen

[@alexdel00]

I just bought a 24 chevy silverado with the 3.0 and max tow, and this is my first diesel vehicle, could you explain why i should be aware of the regen monitoring? Is there something important i should do when is performing it?

[@MauriceJonesJr]

@@alexdel00 because you want to keep driving when Regen is active. It isn't good for the emissions system to shut the engine off mid-regen. You need to let it complete to clear the DPF out completely.

[@advbikerider]

​@@alexdel00generally you don't want to interrupt a regen. it was more important with earlier DPF systems and this truck engine is built for frequent short trips so I wouldn't worry about it. I just make sure about once a week I take at least a 30 mile drive.

[@BrandonConway-bc1dy]

Just installed this mount. Way easier than I thought. Painted mount to match interior. Looks great!

[@DarronDulin]

Been waiting on this one. Thank you !

[@DemonWorks]

No problem!

[@cje26]

Can't wait to see a dual pod setup. I've been going back and forth on whether or not to do it but haven't pulled the trigger yet

[@DemonWorks]

I will do the video ASAP, Banks already shipped the dual to me. The video will show this single, then go to the dual and setup a second gauge. So, you should have all of the info needed to see exactly what you want. Please do comment back on which way you go !

[@cje26]

I definitely will. My modding budget needs some time to heal from the VSE system and my new scanner install first

[@1441engraving]

What paint option did you go with to match the ‘24 ZR2 interior? I don’t see an option for it on the site. Thanks for a great Install video.

[@DemonWorks]

Thanks for the kind words - The ZR2 black panels are close to the black on the stealth pod - Here is a coupon code I got via text from Banks for their sale that ends today - it's good for everyone - CYB24MNTXT - bankspower.com/demonworks

[@Multimeter1]

I got a scratch on my bed, what are my top 3 options? It’s deep enough that I can feel it with my finger nail. I had some acorns I sat on in the bed of my truck scratching in, thin deep lines. Worried about if it will rust over time. Not wanting spray in bed liner before that’s a suggestion

[@CajunTrails]

Question, did you have to remove the negative cables off the batteries before removing the handle for air bag safety? See some say you have to but I m about to do my install soon.

[@DemonWorks]

I did not, it is always safest to disconnect the negative though.

[@edgerlyb19]

Any insight on when the derringer is coming for the 3.0 😅

[@DavidLewis-wv6kt]

I've been watching that long enough to go from an LM2 truck to an LZ0 so now I have to wait for that version, if they even decide to make it.

[@ChrisToffffer]

Any news on a tuner on the lz0?

[@fxnytroxtxFPP]

Wish banks added manual regen for lz0, like they have for lm2

[@bankspower]

It's coming! Our engineers have been working on adding manual and mobile regens to the iDash functionality.

[@fxnytroxtxFPP]

@@bankspower 👍

[@WACKEM1679]

Is the extension cable needed to route up?

[@gonefishingapodaca]

Will the pod work with Bose sound system? There a speaker in my A 8:34 A pillar.

[@DemonWorks]

This is a truck with the bose system.

[@gonefishingapodaca]

@@DemonWorks interesting, mine has a speaker in the A-pillar. I hope it’s just a cover and nothing else attached to it.

[@steveking-z9h]

What software version and vehicle setting are you using on the iDash? Thanks for the great videos you're putting out.

[@DemonWorks]

1.24.0. Thanks fit the kind words!

[@1randyharbin]

My first regen on my 24 ZR2 was at 638 miles, I am a little surprised you haven't loaded the 1.24.7 Beta from Banks.

[@1441engraving]

I have the same truck. Did you buy the stealth mount and did you paint match for the interior? I’m looking at the paint options and see nothing for a ‘24 1500… never mind the ZR2.

[@1randyharbin]

@@1441engraving, I do have the stealth mount, I am currently running my old suction cup mount as it is easier to make "disappear" in case of a service visit, why worry about any hassle if you can avoid it. I haven't painted it yet for install, and I am still on the fence about whether to or not, the black does look pretty good in contrast along with the gauge against the dark grey interior. Most people I know look to the plastic paints for Crylon or Rustoleum to find a good color match instead of paying a lot more for what Banks is selling. IMHO/YMMV

[@gregread6278]

Another great video. I've been looking to get the i banks. Have a 2023 Tahoe. Was wondering what you would suggest for mounting as I do not have the grab bar like the pickup does? Want to stay away from the suction cup. Any suggestions?

[@marcotorres2722]

Did you have the pedal monster installed on the high country? Just curious if it transfers and installs to the new truck with no issues. Thanks

[@mzrzfxr]

Looks good! No codes I take it or onstar issues?

[@manvsmachine7279]

Does adding the Banks idash void vehicle warranty?

[@DemonWorks]

I cannot comment on that as all dealerships are different. It's just a gauge though, easily installed.

[@davidnawrot6683]

I bought My 3.0l in October and Banks said they couldn't confirm if the I-dash worked with the '24 yet so I have been waiting, does it 100% work and show regen or %?

[@DemonWorks]

Mine has worked in my 23 and the 24, some others report it not working in their vehicles. The workaround for that is to select the 20-21 lm2 in the options but then you lose the transmission and some other parameters

[@matthewhiggins1105]

Have you messed with the edge module? They claim a decent HP and torque gain

[@DemonWorks]

I have not, because it's only for the 20-22. I can see the HP / TQ gain with the way the device works (fooling the ecm into thinking the fuel pressure is less and boost is less so it commands more) but that's going to lower the mpg since it's always adding additional fuel. The dash will be off since the ecm is no longer calculating so the mpg numbers would need to come from hand calculations which I think would show false. I also dislike their claim of warranty friendly, it's not. All that aside, I do think it's a good unit on paperand wouldn't mind giving one a try when they are available for the newer trucks.

[@matthewhiggins1105]

@@DemonWorks do you think this would be bad for the dpf system by dumping extra fuel? Looking for extra HP but not drop 4k to delete/destroy the dpf system

[@kerlyb123]

Whats the difference monitoring DPG Regen % vs DPF Soot load %. I have 2023 LZO w idash using 1.24.7 firmware.

[@jonnybakes9337]

Any idea why it’s not displaying DPF regen % for me? Unplugged it and plugged it back in and it showed up but then my fuel level wasn’t showing up and I switched pages and when I went back to my original page the DPF % was gone and the fuel level was back.

[@DemonWorks]

try the other LM2 option.

[@kevguillot]

What sub category is the charge air cooler temps in on the idash menu?

[@4961Studebaker]

Temperature

[@ericmontes9147]

Did you select dmaxlm2 for the vehicle. I just installed my idash and i am having an issue where when i start the truck , it shows the dpf percentage and the dpf distance between miles, but it will go blank after like 30 seconds and will not come back on until i turn the truck off and on again. I have a 2023 gmc sierra 1500 lzo

[@4961Studebaker]

That seems to be a problem I’ve had as well. Have to for go displaying distance between regens. And oil pressure. Maybe in a future update

[@DemonWorks]

I know of a few people with the same issue, unsure why. I selected the second lm2 option.

[@ericmontes9147]

Yeah i selected the second to last option which was dmax lm2. I even called banks and they sent me the beta firmware to install on the idash but after installing, it didn’t seem to solve the issue. Bummer because i mainly purchased this to monitor the dpf percentage to know when the truck is about to go in to regen.

[@kerlyb123]

​@@ericmontes9147I have Sierra w LZO & using idash w 1.24.7 firmware. Vehicle setting is second LM2. I monitor DPF Regen using soot load % .

[@ericmontes9147]

@@kerlyb123 thank you for the info. Is the soot load % the same as monitoring the dpf rg %

[@ZR1Terror]

Hell no. This is a weekend project. I tried doing it this evening but ran out of day light.

[@edgerlyb19]

Nice husky in the background 👀

[@wd9581]

Why did you go with the zr2 vs. at4X? Chevy is a lower grade truck. It's still nice, though. Don't get me wrong. The gmc Sierra is just nicer.

[@DemonWorks]

ZR2 gave me what I wanted

[@turboss08]

Having owned both (traded in the 22' AT4 for the ZR2), the ZR2 is just as nice as the AT4. For the lower trimmed Silverado's, the Sierra is nicer.

[@Hokiealum99]

AT4X is for the type of man who uses hair gel. The zR2 is for the man who gets mud in his hair from the window being down.

[@1441engraving]

You would have to step up to the AT4X in order to get the upgraded suspension. That’s at least $4000 more for the GMC. I liked the front end better on the Chevy as well.

[@jgyrwa]

I’m curious to know, how truck owners were driving these truck for past two decades without these aftermarket add on? Not even a CDL truck driver requires to have such gauges, with unnecessary information. Just drive the truck, and pay it off.🤦🏾‍♂️

[@DemonWorks]

nobody said anything was required, sorry this upset you so much.
