I don't see it, thought a purse hit it and caused that scratch

 

Oh yea that was my new Coach bag on the way from the mall.

 

My trucks totaled if that's damage

 

Ha, defiantly a possibility.

 

It is... send me that locker axle.

 

Your truck is now unprotected and gong to rust away.

 

No no no

 

could be if I reported it

 

I don’t have a locker lol

 

So jokes aside, my truck did not like the cold at all. It didn’t wanna start at first, then sounded really raspy when it did. I then heard a loud whirring sound from behind the dash, almost like an old timey horn. And at idle, it kept surging from 2-3k RPMs any ideas?

 

HVAC fan doesn't like the cold. I'm not sure about the fast idle could be idle control valve IAC.

 

Time to sell it

 

not yours Jacksons.

 

I hadn’t noticed it surging before this extreme cold. It does like to idle high though.

 

Cable driven speedometers make horrible noises in the cold it's just how it works.

 

What about the surging high idle though?

 

If it's like the cold vehicles around here they'll keep the idle high until they warm up and that takes a long long time. I just started the truck with the haltech in -4 and it came to life after two tries at cranking and now it's steadily starting to even out but it stayed up at 1800 RPM

 

My old trucks did fine in the cold, it this one has always had more idling and starting issues than those for some reason. Maybe it’s just a quirk of the 3.4.

 

Yea I had it up to 175f and it was still doing it. Well see if it gets better when I restart it here in a few minutes.
