Worth knowing about the 2011 Sierra 1500

  • Wipers. The connector is left blank because only one parts listing names it.
  • Bulbs. Positions left blank are ones where the owner's manual and the parts catalog did not name the same bulb.
  • Spare. This vehicle carries a full-size spare.
  • Tire chains. The manual permits tire chains or cables, within limits on which tires and which wheels. Those limits are in the next note; read them before you fit anything. Search Amazon for tire chains →
  • Tires. The manual allows chains on the rear tires only and forbids them with P265/65R18, P275/55R20 and several optional 20- and 22-inch tires.
  • Torque. Tighten lug nuts to 140 ft-lbs in a star pattern with a torque wrench, and re-check after the first 50 miles. This figure is from the owner's manual; an impact gun will overshoot it.
  • TPMS. New sensors on this car will not pair on their own by driving; they need a relearn. Method: tool (TPMS relearn tool, in the manual's sensor matching process).
  • Dimensions. The figures above are for the Crew Cab, short box (5 ft 8 in); other body configurations differ in length, wheelbase and weight.
  • Fuel. Long-box trucks hold 34 gallons, and the manual recommends 91 octane for the 6.2L V8.
