2000 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 Engine Problems
Owner-reported complaints naming the engine system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Engine reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

LARGE INTAKE LEAK, ANTIFREEZE LEAKING INTO THE OIL MILKED OIL. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL I FOUND THIS SO STARTED LOOKING FOR OTHER PROBLEMS. I PUT A PRESSURE TEST ON THE RADIATOR AND FOUND THE LEAK IMMEDIATELY! THE ANTIFREEZE CAME OUT FROM UNDER THE FRONT EDGE OF THE #1 CYLINDER!I AM VERY UP SET TO HEAR THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE G.M. RECALL THEIR TRUCKS FOR THIS PROBLEM! I REPAIRED THE PROBLEM MYSELF. IF I HAD TO PAY SOME ONE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IT WOULD HAVE COST IN THE RANGE OF $700-$900. *AK
