Thanks for reply, I know you probably get asked the same thing a hundred times. Your wisdom and help here is truly appreciated. I swapped them out last Sat. A buddy of mine got them for me for $55.00 he works at Napa. Seamed like a deal compared to what I seen elsewhere. Most of the local auto...
Yeah that's what they used, but like I said it looks green to me. Also after they rechecked the truck they found leaks on the heater hose's which are not covered buy my warranty. Told me over $600 to replace the hose's. I tried to fight it, and get them to cover the repair, but lost the fight...
Still unable to get truck back into to dealer to get rechecked, but they did at least top off the overflow bottle. They confirmed they used yellow, as well but it looked green coming out of the jug to me!
Thanks for information. The water pump being external, doesn't explain the white smoke the dealer reported. When I went out to look at the truck, the coolant overflow bottle appeared empty! IDK weather to just top off and watch it, or take back to the dealer for a week or so again?
Update...
Okay well it was in fact the water pump! I guess it just took my dealer a week to figure it out. I've been busy with going out of state for the races, the wife picked up the truck Friday. I need to go out and look at it, as I'm not sure if the pump on these are internal or externally driven. If...
I've personally never seen it smoke. They went from no issues last Friday, to white smoke on Monday. As of now they still have no answer for me. I stopped by yesterday to retrieve my lawn chair for the race. I asked the service manager for a update while there. He told me there still waiting on...
Thanks for the reply. Isn't the water pump near center or drivers side? My leak was on the passenger side, i was thinking turbo cooling line? Also I wouldn't think the pump would cause white smoke out the exhaust? Dealer also claimed they had it on a lift, and seen no sign of a leak last...
A few weeks ago I changed my oil & checked coolant level. Wife is main driver of this truck, she tells me the loud radiator fan was back. So I pop hood to see if coolant was low, the overflow was empty! I added around 3/4 of a gallon. 2 days later it needed another 1/2 gallon. I never seen any...
Got the hvac one today as well. Did you all get the one before on the brake system? My dealer just recieved the parts for it, says atleast a half a day job! I think I will just wait till parts are available for both recalls. As of now I'm not loosing any brake fluid.
Well my last oil change proves the days elapsed wrong. Went 4,547 miles before needing the oil changed, per the dash display. Which is my best so far with this truck. It has been on a few trips lately, but like I said before mainly just short trips with a lot of idle time. Anyway last oil change...
