No it does not. Just a 3 position switch on dash. 2wd, 4hi 4lo. I only used it in the snow 3 times. I never drive it in 4wheel drive when on dry pavement. Last time it was not as bad as the first time.

EbaBlacknchrome, I have not brought it to the dealer yet. You describe it perfect with the granny gear! I did check the transfer case fluid and it is a little low, but not that low. I will pick up some dextron 6 next time I go in to town. I want to put the right stuff in it. I should be talking to the dealer on a couple of weeks so I will have them drive it and let me know. It won't bother me if it is just supposed to be that loud. if it is in 4X4 i'm usually not going that fast.

Thanks for the compliment Crankman! My last truck was a F350 7.3 and you could hear it when it was in 4 high but not this noticeable. I will check the T/C fluid and know the service manager at the local dealer and will let them check it out. I have no issue with it if it ends up being the way these are made. We do get some snow now and again, so I don't need this thing to break at an inopportune time.
Thank you all for taking the time to respond and appreciate any further feedback.

it's electric, it has the button on dash, it's an LT 2500hd that is pretty loaded. The noise sounds like my Muncie M22 rock crusher in my Camaro, but I thought these trucks were supposed to be pretty quiet

My 16 2500hd silverado has a constant noise in 4 wheel drive. it sounds like a bad bearing/gear. No noise in 2wd. it is like a whine that goes up in pitch when accelerating and when coasting down a hill it makes a lower pitch growl. truck only has 4,000 miles. Any Ideas? I would love to pinpoint it to make sure the repairs are diagnosed correctly. I will take it in to the dealer when the weather gets better.
Thanks
Scott
