@Paddy My truck's got about 200K km on it, so like yours there's a lot of idle time and resulting fuel pump run time. Looking around on some other forums it is highly possible that the sensors themselves have gone bad and having them replaced cleared out the issues for those people.
Are you...
@Paddy I have P015D on my 2014 PPV and I believe that it's the upper bank, passenger 02 sensor (right before the CAT). P015B is related to the upper bank, driver 02 sensor (but please do correct me if I'm wrong). In any case you should replace the 02 sensors in pairs so both uppers or both...
@BlackDogBrian, congratulations on the purchase. I grabbed an ex-OPP '14 Tahoe with 200K Km on it over a month ago.
As @bayareadude84 said, you probably want to go over the truck and get everything up to spec before tossing any money on some of the cosmetic items. I recommend you drive the...
Thanks for the offer but the wife'll kill me if I go over budget on what I promised to spend :(. The dealer I picked up the truck from installed a mismatched light grey console that's serviceable for now.
No pics of the truck just yet, I'm hoping to revisit some of the plugged holes and do some...
Hi All, I did end up picking up a '14 Tahoe PPV. Ex-OPP car with about 200K Km on it.
Truck's driving well and I've been working on it (when I can) to get it up to par. Did a transmission fluid change right away and the truck's shifting better than when I picked it up. The mechanic I took the...
@rook, thanks for the prompt reply. I'm looking to order some parts from Rock Auto and this is what they have categorized under 'Oil Pump Seal'.
FEL-PRO 72401 Oil Pump Seal
Truck's 2WD so I hope the job goes smoothly. Apart from the oil pan gasket and the o-ring did you have to replace...
@RichardCranium , thank you for your suggestions too. I'm looking to purchase the truck in the next 2-3 weeks. The one dealer had a truck that fired right up and was parked outside. FWIW, the dealer plugged the holes and it has been raining quite heavily in Ontario but there were no damp smells...
@992dr thank you for the welcome and the suggestions - will definitely keep it in mind.
One challenge I have is that alot of these vehicles are purchased by BHPH used car dealers so you really have to do your homework as they usually don't provide service records.
I do enjoy wrenching and the...
I apologize if I'm hijacking the thread here, but what would you guys recommend looking for when purchasing a 2014 Tahoe PPV with about 220,000KM? I'm in Canada and these are former OPP/Highway patrol vehicles.
When looking at the motor, would it be wise to look for excessive engine movement...
