Not in the wrong category Jerry, just not too clear. Durmax has to do with concrete and what is Duramex? If it has to do with a car/truck engine most
larger mechanic shops in San Quintin should have car computer analyzers. They're pretty much everywhere nowadays.jerry - 1-8-2009 at 09:32 PM
just to inform you van a duramax its a chevy diesel pickup and so far no puder reader in San QuintinBigWooo - 1-9-2009 at 06:35 AM
Maybe one of the members can point you in the right direction. There are a lot of mechanics that post on this site that can be a big help.
If you do find a reader try posting the code and symptoms. Usually someone can identify exactly what's wrong. Hopefully it's something that's a quick
fix.

Sorry you're having problems, but if you have time when this is resolved would you mind posting what your problem was and how you fixed it? I also
have a new Duramax and would like to hear what happened.
Hope it works out well.rts551 - 1-9-2009 at 07:59 AM
I believe you need a Diagnostic Code Reader for OBDII. Many mechanics have them in the San Quintin area. They are not that expensive. Then if there
is an error code you have to cross reference the code to english text. that they may not have for that particular truck (Duramax Diesels not being
common in that area).
Hope this helpsAlan - 1-9-2009 at 09:39 AM
It might not be necessary to read the codes if you can describe the problem.
