    Low oil pressure warning.

    Well, now i am going to have to look when i change oil from now on. Hopefully its magnetic and i dont know because its never had filings on it.

    Rear brake line along frame 04 Silverado.

    i made a line, and by made i mean i brought a pre made line and made a j shape to go into the abs controller and then had the local shop make a line to poke down the frame, and joined the two. It doesnt look pretty, but its mostly in the right place.

    Darn, i forgot about magnetic drain plugs. They used to be on all sorts of things

    yeah its guessing game for sure trying just to poke a line through

    Low oil pressure warning.

    5.3/ no i wasnt smart enough to look at the oil before i dumped it. i could probably identify the oil filter and cut it open though

    Low oil pressure warning.

    Last week the 03 Silverado 1500 gave a low pressure warning. I stopped, made sure nothing was leaking and drove home slowly the 3 remaining miles. I changed the oil as it was almost due and it took a long time to register oil pressure. My question is, sensor or real problem? Or just change...

    Rear brake line along frame 04 Silverado.

    That makes sense, its been a bear trying to get through there. i managed it once and when i tried to form the U turn while lying under the truck i kinked it

    Rear brake line along frame 04 Silverado.

    Has anyone here replaced the line from the ABS controller to the rear axle before? Pre formed lines or made your own? I am having trouble making the u turn into the controller. I dont think i could force a pre formed one between the tank and the frame.

    U-Joint Fiasco

    That sucks. You pay people to do it right, you can do it wrong yourself for free.

    Stutaeng's 1999 Silverado

    I need a new grille emblem too. I don't think I've seen one of these trucks with a good one in the last 10 years

    U-Joint Fiasco

    One of my trucks was such a tight fit i never did get the c clip in. Gave up, put it back together "for now" and it must have been 10 years since! Probably not the recommended way though.

    Your opinion? Parking lights.

    i am sure something i drove in the 90s, so it was 70s or 80s vintage had a light on top of the fender pointing back that was just a turn signal repeater so you knew it was on, or something

    Your opinion? Parking lights.

    I'm not sure how foggy Norway gets but if its anything like the UK i say amber. But now you've made me wonder what happened to the lights american cars always had cut into the side of the fenders front and rear.

    Gear selector display dim

    Well that seems easy enough. I should probably take the mirror off and see if i can get the temp/compass working again too.

    Gear selector display dim

    My dads 2003 c1500 Silverado has a curious problem. The PRND21 display is super dim. To the point that on a sunny day you dont know what gear you are in. All the other displays are as bright as they should be Anyone else had this problem and know whats going on?

    Key Locks

    Not having fobs might mean someone before you lost or broke the fobs. My Silverado didnt have fobs, other than the after market command start that i removed, but i got one from the wrecker yard and now i can live like the fancy people do..

    Command start killing battery?

    Slight update. It wasn't the command start. After getting the truck running (i gave up and paid professionals) I parked it for the winter and removed the battery. A month ago i got it out of the shed - yes winters are long here - and removed the command starts wires completely, taped...

    Loose steering

    Changing the 23 year old power steering fluid is the cheapest improvement to steering feel. Having some oil with viscosity again gives a surprising amount of improvement. No one ever thinks of it.

    What CV Axle Are You Buying?

    9 to 14% bad reviews. I enjoy reading the bad reviews. Some are so dumb, like "did not fit my Jetta had to go back for a different one" etc Then you get 1 star reviews for shipping problems. The 5 star reviews are done the same day they installed it and it went easy. So i dont really put...
