hello all. I'm looking at purchasing a used 04 LB7 with 49000 miles. Truck is in good overall condition, seems to run good, nothing out of the ordinary. My question is this:does the waranty on the injectors extend to the second owner of these trucks? also I understand that the waranty is 5 years or 100000 miles for the 04, is this correct? thanks in advance for your help.

The warranty stays with the vehicle, 100,000 miles 5 years with $100 deductible.

The 2000-2003 models had their injector warranty extended to 200,000 miles, 7 years, but the majority of the problems the early injectors had were corrected by the 04 models and GM hasn't included them in the warranty extension.

Here is their "Special Policy Statement":

Condition
Some customers of 2001-03 model year Chevrolet Silverado; GMC Sierra; 2003 Chevrolet Kodiak and GMC TopKick vehicles, equipped with a 6.6L Duramax Diesel (RPO LB7 - VIN Code 1) engine, may experience vehicle service engine soon (SES) light illumination, low engine power, hard start, and/or fuel in crankcase, requiring injector replacement, as a result of high fuel return rates due to fuel injector body cracks, ball seat erosion, or high pressure seal extrusion (refer to Corporate Bulletin Number 04-06-04-007 and SI).

Special Policy Adjustment
This special policy covers the condition described above for a period of 7 years or 200,000 miles (320,000 km), whichever occurs first, from the date the vehicle was originally placed in service, regardless of ownership. The repairs will be made at no charge to the customer.

Important: This special policy only covers the above noted failure modes, which are identified by high fuel return flow.

motor and injectors are covered for 100k / 5 years. Warranty is carried over to next owner.
