I drained with just the drivers side on the ramp. Used a little smaller bucket than 5 gallon. Need something with a little taller sides because of the oil drain speed and how thin it is.
If you can duplicate while parked you may have better chance, I can only get it under load while driving.
Please let us know if you find it. I looked yesterday while doing the oil and with the skid pads off. I found one potential heat shield spot. Passenger side where the exhaust tube is. There...
I used a 5 gallon plastic bucket the second time to avoid this. Then just poured into the catch pan from the bucket. The 0-20w is like water and flows much quicker than traditional 10-30w. You can use cat litter and crush it into the concrete/garage floor standing on it twisting your feet, let...
If anyone is interested in a magnetic drain plug that is good quality and a direct replacement. It uses the stock crush washer. Also filter mag makes a oil filter magnet that fits the small oil filter. Many of the Amazon or online drain plugs are aluminum and not very durable.
This is...
Some oil will drain out when changing. If you are quick and replace the oil that drains should be good. Be careful with the oil level after replacing the filter if new oil has been added. The filter holds oil as well. I would replace the filter and let it run for a little and check the level.
I did my first oil change at 1050 miles and second at 3150 miles. This is the oil from break in @ 1050 miles. This is very similar to others at the same mileage. The metal material is high but normal for a new engine. IMO high metal content will cause more wear. I plan on 1k, 3k, 5k and 5k...
This sounds different than the rattle many us are getting. Is this happening while driving? This sounds more constant(deeper) and not just 1500-2500 rpm under load (worse up hill).
This video is a little deceiving. The thumb nail and end of the video shows a black knob with a silver ring on the face of the knob. They are using different footage and images for the product.
The knob in the installation video and the one I received is all black, no silver ring on the face...
I have always been a fan of darker interiors. But be careful with hand sanitizer or anything with high alcohol content. Hand wipes etc... found out the hard way and had re-die a leather area. This would apply to all leather and soft-tex but can mess up black leather and steering wheels quickly.
Agree. This rattle does not happen in neutral or on idle/cold start. I was speaking with a friend the other day, and he had brand new GMC Arcadia that had a exhaust manifold heat shield that would flex into frame and rattle. This would happen under load when the engine would shift the most. This...
I can confirm I have this same sound. It is exact. It did not start out this loud and has gotten worse over the first 2000 miles. I don’t think it is internally in the engine. But I really don’t know. I did make a couple of videos; will edit and post.
This is not normal, if anyone finds the...
Can report.. the ZR knob is a direct replacement and fits perfectly. It could be a little bigger, but that may look strange and it would cover the volume lettering below. It is 100% better than the original and looks OEM. I got the black one and it blends perfect with the dash on the LC trim...
