Death Valley and Check Engine Light
Was talking to one of our Duramax driving, BC neighbors at the park on Sunday and he mentioned having a check engine light when going through Death Valley.
The dealer checked the codes and told him it was a turbocharger issue...at least $400 to tear down and inspect...$1700 for a turbocharger.
He got second opinion from Autozone and the codes cleared. After he mentioned going through Death Valley, one of the counter guys said that has happened before. It was because the computer sensed going below sea level and got confused.
Anyone experience this? Maybe with earlier DMaxes? I'll be in Death Valley at the end of the month via Panamint, Furnace Creek and Beatty...with a code reader...just in case.
