- Went to dealership for tune today. Wanted to play it dumb but after the service advisor, (who was actually damn cool) thought there was a $175 charge, I had to wise up. I explained that I bought it online and installed it myself. Provided the packet which included the labor code. Once he saw that, he said it wasn't a problem!
- Dealer drove me home via lyft.
- 4 hours later, dealer called, said it was done and lyft picked me up.
- When getting the car, I spoke to the advisor again. I asked if he ran into any problems being we're in California. He said Not at all. He explained the process which includes calling Chevy and having them add it to the Vin and build sheet. He questioned if other dealers had problems there but no issues at this dealership. He further mentioned this dealership does about 1-2 of these cai install/tunes a week. Many of them from the Silverado crowd.

So, I'm now happy! Can't speak to sound or performance or gains but it sure looks better.
CONGRATS! While not a cheap upgrade, I do love the look and sound of my intake!

My dealership was finally able to find a listing on the GM parts system that said 21-22 specifically, he showed it to me, and order it for me. it actually arrived and now I just need a car to put it on. The part is still not listed anywhere for the 22's and no one seems to know anything about it. GM workbench last I checked still wont let you add and has it listed as on long term hold. I'm just holding my breath that once my car gets built and arrives I don't have an issue getting the tune since it seemed like a minor miracle that I was able to get one for a 22 from GM. My parts guy said that the listing he found said their were only like 20 something available in the GM system.

Ageed! I was fully expecting a "can't do it" call from the dealer. What a pleasant surprise. Quite the ordeal for a cold air intake!

Good luck on your venture, Uncle!

This is good news! in my experience over the years, not all dealers handle things the same way so my fingers will be crossed. ETA on delivery is next Tuesday the 28th.
Congrats man..

John Sullivan Chevrolet in Roseville. Service advisor Robert B. He also was confident about track alignment. Said I can come in with whatever specs I want, and they’ll set it up.

Congrats on the new car! You’ll love it!

Great guy!

Thanks! The suspense of waiting for the car is being made worse by the chip shortages and not knowing if the plant is going to be running from one week to the next.

So do you have the part# for the 21-22 that you stated they found in the GM Parts System?

I'm at work right now but I can look when I get home to see if there is one on some of the paperwork in the box. I do know that for some reason they removed the packing slip from the outside of the box because I noticed it was missing when I opened the box because I going to try and cross-reference the part number myself to see if it was different from the previous model years. I got lazy though and didn't really dig in the box to look after I made sure it was the right part.

Thank you very much I appreciate it. I have my car on order with TPW10/25. I want to order the CAI. I had to pull off my order due to the “Long Term Hold”. I don’t want to buy it and install and then go to dealer and when they call Chevy they tell them there is no tune available for the ‘22.

I was in the same boat on my order and the long term hold. No one could find it for the longest at my dealership until one day I went in and I got a different guy. He found it and turned the monitor around asked me if this was it and I thought Holy S**T when I looked and it actually said 21-22. I wasn't going to believe it though until I actually had it in my hands. I'm still nervous though and will feel a lot better once I can actually get my car and have it finally installed and the tune is authorized from Chevy. TPW of 09/20 but the chip shortage shutdown is has me on hold until restart.

Hi. So I found the part# on the box. It 84877903. If you google it, it pops up as compatible for 2016-2021. A bunch of the places list it as discontinued now. There are a few sites that say the have it but who knows if that’s accurate. I went online to the Chevy accessories site and they used to list the CAI for the Camaro for the model years up to 2020. Now however they don’t have listed for any 6th gen LT1 Camaros as far as I can tell. So I don’t know if that means they really are discontinuing it or if it just out of stock. I’d get with your parts guy and see what they can see in their system. If they don’t have it you may have to try one of the sites that says the have it.
