@flex93312 2 года назад

I did exactly what you recommended and I passed on a 2008 Duramax after checking the water hose and looking for blow by and the exhaust. It was blowing white smoke from the oil cap and the water hose was hard to squeeze also. I looked for a small whole on the water reservoir tank and couldn’t find one. I looked at the tail pipe and it smelled like sulfur and had white smoke coming out of it. I then checked it with a scanner and it had a bunch of codes, specifically, it had all eight cylinders showing restrictions. When I told the used car owner that I was going to pass on the truck, he tried to talk me into it and said nothing was wrong with it. If I hadn’t looked at your video’s before I looked at it, I might have bought it and regretted it. Thanks a lot for the video, you saved me a lot of money and head aches.

I really appreciate your videos, I have been watching them for a couple years now and it has helped motivate me to buy my first dirtymax last year, It's an 05 lly crew cab chevy 4x4 and came with a 60 gallon fuel toolbox. I have watched just about every video you have and I love the before and after comparisons, not that many people do that. Thank you for your time and effort you put in these videos and congratulations on the new Duramax buy, really clean truck.

@budgreen4x4 3 года назад

Very thorough... My 06 would pass all those checks and it's at a hard 200k. Egr flow excessive is likely from a clogged air filter, that's the first thing that throws that code.

If you have an 06 that’s tuned it’s an Lbz, only difference in 06 lly and lbz is tuning, with efi live your stock is “optimized stock” and they tune it to factory equipped lbz tuning

I just got an 05 rust free crew cab long bed lly. Blown hg. They broke the coolant reservoir cap so it would relieve all the pressure. I bought it as is. Everything looked good. But as I started driving around later in the week she started drinking coolant. When I was filling the coolant I noticed something inside the the cap was jiggling around so I replaced it. Then the bubbles in the reservoir started. I got it in the shop now. Definitely blown hg.

7:08 Vehicle production begins early for the new year. This one was manufactured in the latter half of 06 as you can see, with the September 2006 stamp, so it was marketed as an 07. Also, in 07, the newer boxier body style was released for both the GMC and Chevy so it was a split year, with this cat-eye bodystyle being maintained in production under the name "Silverado/Sierra Classic" I've been a sales rep at a new dealership for the past 20 yrs.

I just went with a friend to look at a Lb7 crewcab for sale. It was loaded, good exterior but steering was horrible, oil in the coolant, the motor was caked in oil, so was the transmission and the transfer case had an obvious pump rub leak. Banks 4 inch exhaust and intake. It was a dog to drive, it just struggled to move, bad throttle response. No deal was made.
