What does the letter “M” indicate on ACDELCO plugs?

Pulled them out and I see the letter, does that mean it’s the original plug the engine came with

Chevy cruise electrical shuts off when warm

My granddaughter has a Chevy Cruise, maybe around 2014. It stopped suddenly in the middle of the road. Pep Boys installed a new alternator $700+. A couple of miles from the shop, it shuts off again. Shop checks it out and sends her out again. A mile away and it shuts off again. They send it to another Pep Boys that has more experience. They say there is no error codes. Their $250 diagnostic fee says the system charges fine when the engine is cool, but shuts down at operating temperature. They are saying possible computer component they can't test. Recommends another tow to the dealer. Does this make sense? What recourse does she have with the original shop? She is in college in New Jersey.

No USB message Chevy Spark M300 2012

Last week I took my Sandisk USB flash drive out of the radio to put some new music on. The drive has worked flawlessly for years.

Formatted it first in exFat , added new mp3s as normally. Now when I plug the USB drive in, it doesnt get recognised and I get a No USB message on the display. Also the small light of the USB flash drive doesnt light up as usual.

Ive also tried formatting as FAT32 and add a few mp3 tracks to it. Same result. :(

When I plug the USB drive in the USB port of my Parrot MKI9200, it works fine.

Ive bought another USB drive, only to find the same result.

My question: Does anyone know if the USB port has a seperate fuse somewhere? Maybe inside the radio unit itself? Or is there another thing I can do to try and fix it? Would be nice to have it working again. :)

2003 Chevy Blazer Ls Radio wiring

Does anyone know where I can find a diagram or something that will tell me which wires in the radio are for the left and right channels for the cd player? I'm attempting to add bluetooth. I can't find anything on YouTube or Google.

2.0L Turbo Equinox Towing

I currently own a V8 RAM 1500 pickup to tow a ~2000lb (dry) 17ft lightweight travel trailer. It is more than capable, but through the rest of the year it is overkill and sucks gas. With the rising cost of gas I am considering my options.

A Ford Maverick 2.0L turbo is rated 4000lbs. A 2018-2020 Equinox however is also available as a 2.0L turbo and rated 3500lbs. It has almost identical horsepower to the Maverick.

I have done some searching and found several skeptics and naysayers suggesting the engine wouldn't be up to the task long-term, but few actual owner reviews.

These have been out for a while - Does anyone in the group own a 2018-2020 2.0L turbo Equinox and can cite actual towing experience with this vehicle? Has it been durable/reliable? Has it stood up?

2019 Blazer Premier

A local dealership to me has a 2019 Blazer premier 1-owner with 30,000 miles for $26,000. The car looks to be in nice shape and it has a good Carfax track record in terms of service, no accidents, etc. Is there anything that I should be on the lookout for or can anybody comment on the reliability of a 2019 Blazer?

How do I take off this trim piece?

So Im doing some rust repair on my 2013 Orlando LT, when I noticed that the paint behind the plastic door trim was peeling off. I tried taking it off after loosening a nut inside the door that was holding it in. But I couldnt figure out how to take it off. I tried sliding it left and right but it kept on getting caught on something. So I was thinking if its meant to be yanked out and have the clips replaced. Any suggestions?

Wanting to put a sbc 350 into my 1977 Monte Carlo to push some more power out of it. Does the engine have to be from a specific year to fit it the car and what kind of 350 would be best

Keep in mind I’ll most likely be getting something off of facebooks market place.

I was also wondering if any of the parts from the 1977 305 that’s currently in it would be transferable into the 350.

A/C issue 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500

Help… I have an issue with my air conditioning, some days no air will be blowing and some days it’ll kick on randomly when I start her up. As I was taking off the bottom panel to look at the blower motor resistor, just happened to kick back on again.

The resistor isn’t burned, when (it wants to be) on all fan levels work from low to high.

I’m truly stumped on why it’s acting glitchy.

Is the Super Chevy Show still a thing?

When I was a kid, my grandpa use to take me to the Super Chevy Show in Phoenix AZ every year. I think the last time I went was around 2004. My grandpa is no longer with us; and I really wanted to take that trip again with my girlfriend. I can’t find any info about it online, so I am guessing it was discontinued or rebranded? If it’s done for, is there something similar in the area?

Maintenance on my 16 Silverado 1500

Short summary, my dash and whole front end (interior) of my truck would go black for a second or 2, come back on and then display a handful of error messages. The truck would also completely turn off while still in gear and while driving. Took it to the dealership and this is what im being quoted for the potential fixes.

Has anyone experienced this and has this been the solution? And is his a good deal/average/above average?

Thanks for any advice!

Auto Stop Failure

So my dad came home saying the car turned off after the auto stop on our 2019 traverse

Later that day my mom took the car and it did the same thing only to not move at all after

We have found out it was the starter, and that a fuse blew when hitting the gas again!
