Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability

The T1XX platform delivers unmatched chassis rigidity, class-leading fifth-wheel towing capacities, and advanced multi-camera towing aids.
The Duramax L5P diesel paired with the Allison 10-speed transmission provides peerless torque delivery and motorway hill-climbing refinement.
The 6.6-litre L8T petrol V8 offers a robust, cast-iron pushrod engine without the complex emissions equipment of modern diesels.
Massive eight-foot Durabed provides best-in-class cargo bed volume alongside authentic luxury-grade Crew Cab passenger accommodation.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on

Allison 10-speed transmission: check software calibration records, inspect fluid temperature stability, and verify smooth low-speed gear shifts.
Duramax L5P DEF and SCR equipment: check urea injector for crystallization, test NOx sensors, and ensure the vehicle is not driven solely on short trips.
6.6-litre L8T petrol V8: check engine oil level regularly during heavy haulage, inspect exhaust manifold studs, and monitor cooling efficiency.
Dual rear wheel setup: examine full-floating hub seals, check wheel lug nut torque, and verify inner tyre valve stem access and inflation.
T1XX electronics and camera systems: test all 15 trailering camera views, trailer brake controller module, and 7-pin wiring sockets.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss

Perform Allison 10-speed transmission fluid and filter servicing every 45,000 km when operating under continuous heavy towing duty.
Renew engine fuel filters on Duramax diesel models every 20,000 km using premium OEM filtration media to protect common-rail components.
Drain and refill heavy front and rear differential lubricants along with the transfer case fluid every 50,000 km.
Inspect and lubricate front suspension ball joints, steering linkages, and prop-shaft universal joints at every engine oil change interval.
