problem #2

Mar 122008

Silverado 4.3L V6

  • Manual transmission
  • 40,000 miles

It was a cold day in March. Check engine light came on out of no where. Dash display said "Check Fuel Cap". I did. Days later light still did not go off. Took it to Chevy and they said it was the fuel pressure switch. They wouldn't pay to fix it since it was 4,000 over warranty. The replacement lasted only months. Somedays it comes on and somedays it goes off. Don't plan to replace it again. Truck runs fine, and doesn't seem to hurt gas mileage. Just an annoying light to have to look at after dark.

(reported on)

Silverado W/T 4.3L V6

  • Manual transmission
  • 6 miles

The day I bought my truck my check engine light came on as I drove it off the lot. I took it back to the dealership and had to have my gas pressure sensor replaced. The only thing is it took my dealership three trips for them to figure out what the problem was.
