2013 Chevrolet silverado k3500hd ltz crewcab 6. 6l duramax : engine regularly fails to start. Since acquiring this pre-owned truck in June 2017 I have experienced three instances where the engine turns over while attempting to start but fails to do so. In all cases the attempt to start was made after the vehicle sat outside overnight. Vehicle was oriented with a slight uphill (5 degrees) nose up attitude. Battery (there are 2) condition tested well within specifications for state of charge,voltage and amperage. After having the truck towed to various service facilities none could find a cause for the no start condition. In every instance the truck would restart after having sat for a number of days. Prior to these incidents there have been also been an equal number of loud drive train noises when making a left turn from a standstill onto the highway. After entering the highway the vehicle performed normally except it was immediately followed by what can only be described as a hesitation/stumbling when accelerating moderately. None of these described conditions have been accompanied but any warning tones or mil indicators on the dashboard. Vehicle currently has approx. 209,000 miles and was originally sold new in 2013 and driven in texas before being brought to connecticut in Jan 2017 from where I purchased it.
