Re: how many miles on orig motor and trans

I have 2 friends that have gone 4- 500,000 kilometres on the motor... though the tranny blew on them...one guy twice....the other guy once....The have 2001 and 2003 models...Mine is a 2001 Silvy, Extended 5.3 V8 4x4...I have driven so far 90, 000 kilometres... however, it feels like my tranny is to slipping, but I could be wrong...It is very minimal.... My engine has piston slap...so I ain't know what's going to happen there either....My rear end has to be rebuilt, I think it's about to be become a mixture of fine metal pieces, and 80W90....Anyways, the best truck out there no matter what people say.....

Re: Re: how many miles on orig motor and trans

i had piston slap in the morning on my 5.3 with 100,00 miles on it and i switched to mobile one synthetic10w40...it seems to have made the piston slap go away, or it is very minimal.

220+k miles on my 99 Silverado. Orinigal motor (5.3 L) and auto transmission. No problems on either during this time. I had the normal ABS pump failure around 50k miles and I just replace a wheel bearing but nothing else.

Been a good truck for me.

I got almost 2,000 miles on my original motor and trans. no problems yet. Which is good because I still owe $ 24,000 of $37,000 on it.

Re: how many miles on orig motor and trans

My dad had a '84 silverado with a 305... he wound up getting a little better than 700,000 miles on the engine (with NO internal work done to it) before it died. That spanned about 4 transmissions, though.
