I have 115,000km on my 2022 LM2 Silverado. So far it's been great, but some people have experienced serious issues on older ones. Gm is constantly improving this little motor. Lessons I've learned myself or through several forums and family members with the same motors:\n\n- Fuel additives seem to get better mpg and less regens \n- Only available oils are amsoil, mobil 1 and OEM. (Amsoil isn't dexos certified though)\n- Oil changes are pricey compared to gas, cheap compared to bigger diesels. I pay $250 CAD \n- Known to crack radiators (top right side) as well as water pump leaks. \n- Many people tend to replace the MAP sensor or clean it after a while to make it run smoother, it's a cheap part. \n- Doesn't seem to burn oil, but mine is consuming a little coolant lately (I suspect radiator).\n- The factory fuel filter is 5 micron but Wix makes a 2 micron replacement. Cheap and easy to do yourself. I pay around $50 CAD\n- Everyone online thinks they have blow by, they don't, just have a lot of crankcase pressure\n- Mine seems to misfire when started in weather colder than -15C for about a minute until warm. \n- A10 trans is smooth but has the odd rough downshift, I also follow the severe service interval table and change fluids with amsoil and new gm filter \n- Def consumption is never an issue other than towing. If towing anything heavy bring a jug or two. It will go into limp mode when you run out.
Reviews of spare parts for Chevrolet
I use WIX 51036XP with synthetic oil on my 97 Tahoe since I own the truck (60.000 miles) and oil pressure is great.
I have a set of Goodyear Wranglers HT on my Silverado 2500HD, a set of Goodyear Wranglers AT on my Silverado 1500 and a set of Goodyear Assurance on my Malibu. They’ve been great to me. The ones on the Malibu are very comfortable and my wife likes them better than the Firestones the car came with.
I have these for my silverado and I'm at 60k miles on mine and they're still looking amazing
I went with Raybestos Element 3 rotors and pads. I live in New England so plenty of salt. Getting into my 2nd winter on them and they still look new.
I believe I just used the 12in Rain-x wipers for my 23 EUV. It sticks out a little bit but fits just fine. I appreciate the slightly larger area it wipes.
I have been very happy with the Sailun Erange tires for the last 2k miles.
Initial impressions after 50 miles. The ride quality isn’t noticeable different than the OEM tires. I THINK they might have a tiny bit more noise. Driving this weekend I can first say the new tires are a smoother and quieter ride. I can say for sure that there tires are not significantly better or worse than the OEM tires.
My 2023 is not any better. I hit a deer last winter and when I switched back to my truck for a few months it was so apparent how bad the lights were. I would have seen the deer with my truck, but not with the low beams on my Bolt.
The car has been amazing except for one thing, the headlights. I can't see ANYTHING at night. I've adjusted the headlights a few times and they are aimed correctly, but the output is so dim that it the only noticeable things are streets signs or other things with that reflective matetial/coating. It makes me nervous to drive, to the point where I will upgrade to anothet car if I can't find a solution.
