2005 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 HD stays with the naturally aspirated 364-cubic-inch 6.0L V8, an overhead-valve gasoline engine, in the four-door crew cab pickup, and with SLE and SLT trims. Where a light-duty Sierra of the same year fans out across five engines and three cabs, this truck has one of each, so nothing here needs to be filtered by configuration before it can be used at the bench.

Known issues on the 2005 Sierra 1500 HD. Eight recalls have been recorded federally. A power steering hose built out of specification could fracture under hard steering and leak, taking away power assist and, on hydro-boost trucks, brake assist as well. Retainer screws holding the fuel rail crossover tube were made off specification and could snap, leaking fuel at the joint; a stall follows, and any ignition source under the hood turns that leak into a fire. The shift lever position indicator could fail to illuminate at startup. Complaints total 448, with 122 on the electrical system, 118 on the service brakes and 52 on steering.
