It's good to know quite a few people have a similar issue, but it's a bit concerning no one has a fix?

2 more things to check   see if your cylinder #7 exhaust bolt broke off. these exhaust manifold bolts are prone to shearing off. take a look at the driver side exhaust manifold-to-cyl head bolts,

I had a rattle every so often on my truck also. I did the heat sheild and coolant tank but no help. Then I found a tsb about the battery cable being close to the oil dipstick and it would vibrate a

Hey I got the clicking to stop here is what i did. took off the heat shield and located a crack in the exhaust manifold. then I used a product QuickSteel for high temperature can pick it up at any auto parts store I then mixed it up till it looked like toothpaste. then I let it stand for about four and a half hours before testing I went around the block and the noise was gone. I would let it stand for 24 hours though if I were you before you test it when I tested mine it made a giant bubble. Fortunately it held and I just pushed it back in place.I'm not sure how long it will hold up but for 10 busks and 10 minutes of work time its worth a shot verse 150 bucks and between 1-3 hours of work time. At least we know what the sound is and can fix it now.

Can anyone confirm that they have the same noise that is in Z06killers video ? also found at this link

 

It is exactly what I have. Almost sounds driveline related, possible axle or front drive shaft being that it is AWD. It does NOT make the sound during rev only under driving acceleration.

 

 

 

I do hate the sound but more interested in making sure it isnt something major that can go out on me while driving.

Yes, I have the exact same problem and noise that just started last week.

Starter kick out spring is weak or washer that holds the kick out fork is coming loose/off the grove inside the starter, let's it touch the flywheel at times. Also from what others have said possibly crack in the manifold..

      The Peckish Synapse

      Well that book won't sell many copies. Taking ones right foot off the loud pedal never gets applause. Funny really, It isn't that people don't know what to do...they just don't want to do it. But they will complain about it. About bad craftsmanship, about the cost of fuel, about the cost of part and repairs and mainly they complain that the solution while still possible isn't one they are willing to do.    I observe this daily. 'Gas cost to much!", they wail, while they mat it passing at 80+ mpg and scoot down the road like gas cost a dime a gallon. Then complain about the few that will lift and save both fuel and iron like they are owed and own the road.    Good thing they haven't an ounce of influence on my equipment. The rest I just laugh at. Stupid is as stupid does, right Forest?

      Gas Prices

      Today I filled up with 4.899 gallons of fuel at a cost of $4.899 a gallon. $24 bucks. 290 miles. 59.2 mpg. After my 4% COSTCO discount just under eight cents a mile.

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!

      Brake Pad Warning Message

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.
