This factory service and repair manual for the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 covers a two-door cab and chassis fitted with the 6.0L OHV V8, a 364-cubic-inch naturally aspirated gasoline engine, in Base trim. A chassis cab is finished by someone else, so the electrical distribution, frame and driveline material has to be exact where a body builder will cut in; those sections appear with full wiring diagrams, connector views, torque values and diagnostic procedures alongside the engine and transmission chapters.

Known issues on the 2018 Silverado 3500. Six recalls sit on the federal record. Two of them are a block heater cord and connection that can short-circuit, damaging what surrounds them and raising a fire risk. The fuel system supplies two more: a level sensor stuck low that lets one tank overfill the other against the driveshaft, and a rear tank that can collapse so the pump cannot move fuel forward, stalling the engine. A roof-rail air bag inflator can also lose its end cap, and front belt retractors were built with the wrong torsion bar. Complaints total 22, led by the engine at 4.
