Emissions need to go back 20 years. I have a 1997 Tahoe with over 200,000 miles and still running. 5.7 best motor GM made. Never could understand why the removed from production. Mary Barra needs to go.

[@DariusKnepp-b5d]

About how many miles do these engines have on them when that happens?

[@retiredppd]

@@TruckMaster it has me concerned, the next oil change in the spring I’m going to send some oil out to be tested to see if I have a high amount of wear.

I purchased a 2024 yukon denali in November 2024...with 750 miles it started to shut off and shift to neutral while driving...dealer replaced engine now have 2500 miles on it and just don't trust it now?

[@JLCmike4014]

This just re-affirms the notion of buy old, fix it up, and keep it on the road. You’ll save far more money in the long run by doing so. My ‘99 F-350 with the 7.3L diesel and ‘03 Silverado with the duramax will never leave my hands.

[@sherirottweilersforever7772]

Do you have a manual Ford? We had a 99 that had so many problems we had to ditch it with 67,000 miles . I think the 7.3 tore up things.

Maybe there’s an opportunity here to back the emission requirements off to something realistic and achievable, without resorting to fringe tech that makes engines fragile and unaffordable?

I agree

[@muskiefishing9219]

I'm with you, but if they don't start making better vehicles soon. (Trucks) What are people going to drive? Because everyone can't start buying up the 1999 to 2006 trucks, there would be enough to go around.

[@timbow50]

Tell me the test engineers didn’t know this. They gambled and they don’t care about the customer is 100% obvious. ALL the companies have been building junk for 10 years. That’s exactly why I haven’t bought a new truck in over 18 years.

I know someone in Canada that bought a new truck and drove to Florida. Didn't make it there before the engine blew up. It was replaced and they only made it 500 miles on engine number 2 and it too blew up. His dealer changed out the truck for a HD with a diesel. He said he would never own a 6.2 again.

Lost vacation offered a minivan for rental We would all not fit in Vehicle Ended up buying a new truck since we were told all parts were on national bsckorder with no rentals available during spring break. Interest rates were 6% more Credit score got damaged from length of loan. GM did not care Junk Unsafe do not trust these Vehicles with your family in it especially if your on mountain roads or hwy driving at higher speeds. Cant believe what we pay for these unacceptable issues. Unfortunately all brands have similar problems.

[@Danzilly]

They need to be investigated for the lifter failures in the 5.3l too.

[@Chris-h7g7h]

And their junk transmissions. And not just on 2019 and newer. They need to go back to 10 years at least for all these junk vehicles

I have a 2022 GMC 1500 with 6.2L. On its 3rd engine. I bought it used with 40k on it. Locked up about 44k. Found out when being replaced that the engine was replaced 2 months before I bought it. It’s a shame! Very powerful engine from factory.

How often were you changing your oil

[@MatthewOvis]

Valve body issues, 99 days at dealer got it back drove a few time with slightly surging at 90km like the 6 speeds use to do at 80km , and finally got the Recall in the mail for TCM tuning ,so we’ll see what that fixed 🤷‍♂️

Ordered a GMC 3500HD Duramax in late Nov. 2023. Picked it up in March 2024. I didn't want the Duramax because I didn't think it was worth the extra $10K and was originally going to order it with the 6.6 gasser, but something inside me told me the get the diesel. I hope I made the right decision. It only has 4600 miles. I don't drive it much since I drive a company truck. It's already been to the dealer for the software up date and tailgate multi-pro wiring harness. Each fixed on the same day. So far the truck drives like a dream. I hope it stays like that.

[@MatthewFischer-k9o]

I genuinely think we have hit the limits on pleasing government regulations with with technology and oil viscosity at the expense of reliability. This is really a issue for a lot of manufacturers right now, Toyota is having this issue with the V35A-FTS 3.5 twin turbo. 0w20 and lower is insufficient with keeping parts separated, in fact 0w20 is only rated for -40° to 50° fahrenheit ambient temperature regardless of additive packages and base oil make up. The hotter oil gets the lower the centistokes get and parts start rubbing against each other. It has nothing to do with tolerances, a car from the 60s and a car today have at least .001 for every inch of the diameter of the journal, any less and it would lock up when things start to heat up. Manufacturers get rewarded by the government for cutting emissions and fuel consumption. Remember it only has to last 100,000 miles and then they're off the hook.

[@FERNV775]

My guess is that it is being caused by the trash AFM/DoD. We tuned it out on our 2016 and keep the oil changed often. We will eventually do the full hardware delete for the DoD for even more peace of mind.

We had a 2019 suburban that had lifter failer and riuned the cam. Gm fixed under waranty. After that there was a crunching sound from the enigine and the rad statred to leak. Got rid of it. Im a die hard chevy bow tie bubba but this is not good

I have an LBZ, just removed the EGR using one of your older videos, I’m having a problem though getting my aftermarket downpipe to couple with the exhaust, I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get it to sit flush but I can’t seem to get it at the right angle and I can smell and hear exhaust still leaking through the V band. Any tips? Should I try just buying a new V band? Or is there a better way to manipulate the exhaust to the correct angle?

[@TruckMaster]

Buy a new v band also leave the downpipe clamp that connects to the turbo slightly loose when you tighten the lower clamp to the exhaust. But it’s also possible your exhaust system has shifted back. It might take some playing around but you will get it

[@noahdeatley8751]

@ I’m still wrestling with this, it’s driving me crazy. Where the downpipe meets the exhaust there is a gap on the outside, toward the tire. The inside sits flush. I’ve pushed the downpipe as far down as it will go, and I’ve tried everything I can think of to twist the exhaust a little bit to get them to sit flush but nothing has worked. Even bought the new v band but it made no difference.

I worked at a gm dealership in 2023 and there were numerous 6.2's locked up with under 30k miles. I personally think it's an oil flow issue because it's always the back 2 cylinders that go bad. Which are farthest from the oil pump.

[@CZ-kz7ug]

Bet alot of problems would go away if car manufacturers paid for engine oil and differential fluid change in the first 500 miles. Every single new car has metal in the oil. Part of any metal on metal wear in period. Car companies telling you to wait 5k to 10k miles for the first oil change is pure insanity. If you get an engine built, the builder drains the oil after first run. Ring and pinion upgrade, a shop will say come back within 300 to 500 miles for drain and refill. And todays autos are set up tight. Change that early too.

[@toddprater14]

I rember in the very early 90’s you bought a new car they changed your oil at 500 miles.. then another 2500 miles later and you were even at numbers 3000 then your next was at 6000 then 9000 /12000..

[@drivenbullet260]

Bearing failure is only caused by sizing, lube, and speed. Since the engine has a rev limit, that only leaves sizing and lube since the engine makes no noise that leaves lube. My bet is the variable oil pressure pump. Probably under pumping at light load. I'm not sure what controls the oil volume, but that's where my money is. As far as oil viscosity, almost no one knows how that works. A 5w-30 starts at a weight 5, then thickens to a 30 weight when heated. It's not the oil viscosity. Read for yourself how oil weights work right from the oil manufacturer.

Was thinking of. GM 2500 6.6 gas but not now !

[@kaleb8220]

To my knowledge, a lot of these issues have risen due to their DFM/AFM. I don't believe the 6.6 gasser has either of these systems, so it is a less complex engine.

Completely different engine with no DFM and no stop start. By allacounts the 6.6 is excellent.

[@Billybob50119]

Totally different engine. The 6.6 is probably the most reliable current V8 on the market

Looks like a I do cars video you were using

[@repairvehicle]

What is your point?

[@spenceass]

Some footage definitely looked like Eric from I Do Cars

05 cat eye 1500, looking at a gas super duty though.
