My 05 6.0 did the same thing. Was the HPOP and the FICM. Luckily it was still under factory warranty as the tab was a little over $3000. They even picked up the wrecker fee.

well its out of warranty, so this should get interesting. 122000 miles. I was going to trade it in last month but wasn't really comfortable with the 6.4 either. Now I'm really considering a GMC maybe get a deal on the impending bankruptcy

Codes, codes, we need codes.

If you buy a GMC you can always pick up stamps at the Post Office and get your oil changed at the same time since the government is going to back GM Warranty.

LOL yes and apply for federal aid because my payment is too high. Even though I bought it, the taxpayers should be able to help out.

couldn't get codes so I towed it to the dealership on sunday.

Left a note in the night drop box

I got lucky with mine, it was the fuel pump, not the HPOP. It was only $500.00 to replace.

Nice! I hope they check the box. Last time I used the drop box, they checked the VIN, cut a new key, looked up my contact info, and called me about 10 o'clock asking what I wanted. Dumb asses never checked the drop box and they needed it out of their service lane.

Well, I got a free key out of it.

Good luck with it. If you're lucky it will be the STC fitting.
