I did, but good thread to inform people, thanks for posting.

Yeah, it's been years, but not that many!!!! My brother's 2005 Silverado does it and my 2004 Silverado doesn't. So, I would say about 4 years now.....

Lol, that was as chilling a response as I could give, I thought it was appropriate, if it offended you I apologize.
And see above, it didn't seem to bother him, nor was it intended to.

Ject · 07-04-2009, 01:53 PM

hmm, that's something new to me as well, my '04 Silverado doesn't do that.

rush2112 · 07-04-2009, 01:55 PM

My 04 Colorado does it.

beowulf80 · 07-04-2009, 01:56 PM

I can verify that its like this on my 2SS. Also works the same way on the '04 Impala that I passed on to my fiance. However, on that car on very cold (<0F) days if you do this there was a chance that it would not start and you'd have to crank it again.

qbert48 · 07-04-2009, 02:09 PM

it was new to me too. but it's a cool feature
