  • Reliable Chevy? Assessing the Durability of the New Chevrolet Traverse 2024. Despite not getting much information about the new 2.5 LK0 engine at the third-generation Traverse presentation, it represents a part of GM's new family of turbocharged engines. So, we already know that the 2.5 LK0 will be a downsized version of the 2.7 L3B, and there's a lot to discuss here. We'll also explore the similarities between the old 9t65 automatic transmission and the transmission in the new Traverse

    I've been a loyal GM customer for all my life. I used to trade every couple of years. I got this bone disease and had to go on disability and had to keep my current GM vehicle which just happened to be a 2010 Cadillac Escalade that I had to refinance because I had to quit work and go on Social Security disability. Thanks to God, that 2010 Cadillac Escalade has been an great vehicle.

But when i hear "recommendations include regular oil changes, using fuel additives with cleaning effects for injectors, monitoring engine chain tension, avoiding short distance trips when possible😂 and keeping an eye on condition of intake manifold" I'm out. The recommendations shouldn't go much further after "regular oil changes". And that's just talking about the engine.

    Gr8 video. I find the OTA update issues troubling as I feel things have become excessively complicated. 14:40 Include the mileage - very important. GDI carbon build-up ... this is a common problem and unfortunately seems to require both the the traditional port injection in addition to the new GDI delivery system and not sure whey each manufacturer including Toyota seems to have trouble realizing this and switching everything to the dual system. Vehicles remain too heavy, big and bloated (to increase profit margins) then complexity is introduced by GDI & adding turbos and finally gas electric hybrids. Maybe it is time to return to a more plain and lighter vehicle with (Gasp) 4 cyl and no turbo.

    • @thelonglastexpert
      @thelonglastexpert  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you for your comment. Don't be afraid of OTA updates; the new electric architecture, Global B, is highly reliable, and any issues will likely be resolved soon. Unfortunately, modern environmental standards dictate their conditions, and GM has chosen its own path to address this challenge. It will be interesting to see how they handle it over time. Currently, LK0 and L3B seem like a good alternative, but more time is needed to fully assess their reliability. The combined injection is indeed an interesting solution, and the next video will focus on a car with such a fuel system.
      By the way, could you share your experience with the operation of your cars? Which one instilled more confidence in you? don't forget to mention the mileage

    • @MarcelloTheBandit
      @MarcelloTheBandit 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Funny you should mention dual injection. I have a close friend with a 2009 Lexus IS350 and it came with dual injection from the factory. Neither of us can understand why it took Toyota almost 15 years to incorporate it in all their engines, but we're glad they did. It is a very efficient setup he has. As far as this engine not having it, I'm more worried about this second generation one that GM is starting to utilize. I don't have high hopes for it. I do like turbos because of the old school punch you'd get, but I don't like how they don't have as long of a service life as the whole engine. GM could not make entire cooling systems out of plastic, or at least, not make the replacement thermostat housings wild enough that they cost $75 if they AREN'T made of plastic.

Second thing is when they’re used incorrectly if you spin them up and then park the car because they spin up around 100,000 RPMs they can spin for up to five minutes and they need lubrication throughout that time. Also when the motor is cold, it’s not a good time to use the turbo to hammer on a cold engine. These are the things a shop told me that rebuilds turbos. He said they had a come in. They had over 300,000 miles when they checked the turbo, everything was fine, and it never been taken apart.

    I bought a brand new Traverse back in 2012. Paid $56,000 CDN for it. I still have it. It's never once been to the shop for repairs. The Mrs. and I are quite impressed with it. The 3.6 liter engine is quite adequate and works well with the 6 speed transmission. We're leaning towards a 2025 Traverse RS or Z71 and hope they have the bugs worked out of the 2024 model. We've also been looking at the Toyota Highlander. IMO the Traverse is much nicer looking and has far more features than even the Highlander platinum.

I've been driving company vehicles since the mid 90's and my wife is at home so our personal vehicles don't see much use. Our Traverse is the family car and might leave the garage once or twice a week. We took a 2023 Highlander for a test drive and found our older Traverse still handles and rides smoother than the Highlander. Perhaps if Toyota redesigns their Highlander we might take another look. We actually ordered the Highlander platinum hybrid 6 months ago and will see a delivery date sometime in 2025, but after seeing the new Chevy Traverse we are going to cancel the Highlander.

    I love the spaciousness of the Chevy Traverse, but will be forced to look away until engine & transmission issues had been effectively addressed. I do not believe GM would be able to correct Traverse transmission problem ahead of its engine, so the best probably is to use either an in-house reliable manual transmission in the meantime after engine problems has been effectively eliminated/corrected, or use other's more reliable automatic transmission like the Aisin, the ZF, the Allison, etc.

All 2.0 TSI engines have been upgraded, addressing major issues but it all depends on how long you plan to keep this car. If the goal is to drive 100,000 miles and then sell, it's worth considering.

    Though the 2.7L turbo 4 cylinder is proven a more reliable engine than the Ford 2.7L V6 Ecoboost but it's not perfect either. Rather have a 3.5L Atkinson cycle V6 range extender plug-in hybrid truck though. However a Cavalier with a 1.3 turbo 3 cylinder and an Aveo with its 1.2L sister engine would be pretty decent though. The GM 3.6L HFV6 engines have timing chain and water pump failures especially their earlier engines in the Gen 1 Cadillac CTS. However, I want an EV as my next vehicle no need to worry about turbo failures, premature main and rod bearing failures, etc., just set it and forget it.

    how can they talk about reliability when this engine hasn't been used in this application before? I love the design, but as someone who frequently tows my toys to the cottage, i'm a bit weary of a small twin turbo engine for this. I'm not blaming GM, i'm blaming Biden and these emission controls. It seems the V8s are out, and everything is going smaller. I'm also looking at the fuel savings (on the hurricane vs the v8) in the dodge applications, and the gas milage gains are minimal at best. Add the stress of towing for a small engine and I bet you'll blow more gas and definitely more strain on the engine life

      The only thing I would have to agree with is transmission. They definitely had a couple models with not so great transmissions. I believe frame and body wise GM is pretty damn good, but it does depend on what models you are buying. I personally have felt Toyota has went a little down hill in the past few years. That being said my experiences are second hand as my grandpa was the one who was die hard Toyota, he drove the Tacoma and my grandma the Avalon. And both had their fair share of issues towards the end of their ownership of them. And she swapped to a buick Lacrosse and he drives a GMC Canyon with the little diesel and they are extremely ahead in comfort compared the toyotas. And the Lacrosse impressed him when he was able to get 40mpg out of it on a cross country road trip. And I drive a Gmc 1500 slt and it has been good to me so far, I personally don’t love the cylinder deactivation but it hasn’t given me any problems yet

MPGs are also highly hyped until you start putting more hard acceleration into the driving equation. Then its virtually a wash MPG wise.
