Silverado 2500 4WD 8-cyl Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 76,000 miles
Driving home, injector harness failed on my 2005 Chevy duramax. This is a common problem that GM should issue a recall on. I had to limp home at 15 mph, this was after midnight around curvy roads. Lucky I was not crashed into. This is a very dangerous condition that some could really get hurt, and likely already have. Here is a link to moredieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?T=169625. Thank you.

Silverado 2500 8-cyl Diesel

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,313 miles
While driving on the highway at 65 mph then to 35 mph service engine soon light illuminated along with a severe reduction in engine power(limp home mode). The cause is the injector connector circuits on cylinders 2 and 7 are not fully supported near the connector and are more susceptible to terminal breakage from engine vibration.
