speedracer565 08-17-2009, 05:42 PM the truck had 13.900 miles on it when i got it..after MY first 1000 miles of me driving the truck , i got " ENGINE POWER REDUCED'" on my dash, truck turned 15000 g miles when it came up, all stock, i have a code that comes up EGR (that was last week) and i have a minor exhaust leak, so, now i have to figure this out, any suggestions? Jasondt2001 08-17-2009, 05:47 PM take it to the dealer... let them fix it! speedracer565 08-17-2009, 06:16 PM yea well, it will all come out of my pocket then, well i just went under the truck and changed the sensors on the exhaust, i had 2 new ones, im learning here guys, its the blk plug and the grey plug , onle had 1 in there from the start. so now the dash says clean exhaust filter, so im goin to go for a 30 mph ride n see what happends, that coulda been the problem.. Tanc Crusher 08-17-2009, 06:23 PM Is this the LMM you have in your garage and if so it should be under warranty. The EGR should warrantied if dirty or bad motor as some have done. For exhaust give a good 60 minute drive non stop at 55mph or higher. See if it clears. If not take to dealer. Brian Jasondt2001 08-17-2009, 06:24 PM Is it a damaged vehicle? or out of warranty? I'm not trying to be disrespectful but throwing parts at it could cost you a TON of money. Tanc Crusher 08-17-2009, 06:26 PM Agreed one needs to know the codes that are popping. Also monitoring the engine PIDs can help to determine things as well like a Tech would do with a Tech II scanner. Brian Tanc Crusher 08-17-2009, 06:29 PM I search through the OPs post and it is a no warrantied truck he bought at one really good cheap price. Brian speedracer565 08-17-2009, 07:15 PM yea it was a salvage, but only sheet metal damage, i drove it 1000 miles last week, ran like a charm, i think im goin to order and exhaust and see what happens, cant be nothing to bad.. and the code that came up was EGR and AIRBAGS..gotta get the bugs out Tanc Crusher 08-17-2009, 08:03 PM Well if you dont have to worry about emission testing then get a turbo back exhaust and tuner to delete the DPF. If emission testing needed then look at DPF back exhaust and then the dpf and cat/doc delete pipes. Might as block the EGR while at it. Airbags that is gonna probably be either wiring or BCM issue. Sounds like you did a good job getting it back up on the road. Very nice.
