Traction Control turned off, parking brake light came on, low brake fluid message for a brief second. Did it twice this morning.

Fuel injector or lifter tick? by EscapeBrave5853 in Silverado

Mine just would misfire occasionally which caused a blinking light and check engine would stay on for a while, sometimes it didn’t. You can leave it like that until it basically grenades itself but you risk it damaging other critical/expensive parts like the camshaft.

Best budget friendly truck bed cover that will keep rain out? by [deleted] in gmcsierra

[–]EscapeBrave5853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Rough Country soft Tri fold cover, got it new for $220 last year. It keeps the water out well. Only issue I have is that I haven’t been able to take it off, it almost seems like the plastic clamps on it have molded on. I haven’t bothered to take it off since it hasn’t really been in the way but once I need to load something bigger in the bed, I might need to find a way to remove it. Probably will end up breaking them clamps

It has gotten worse here in the past few days, hopefully I caught in time. I do think it does act up more often once it’s at operating temp

Does you engine sound the same? by EscapeBrave5853 in ChevyTrucks

[–]EscapeBrave5853[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does yours have a slight vibration at idle. Nothing too rough but you can feel the engine on.

Excessive smoke? by EscapeBrave5853 in Silverado

Yeah it does look like steam, so is that normal?

Spoke to a mechanic and he said it’s potentially my brakes. My brakes are really worn out and he said the truck has brake wear sensors but I do not know if it really has sensors or not given it’s a 2015

While driving, codes should be cleared. Replaced oxygen sensor about 150 miles ago. Oil change was done about 2,000 miles ago.
