New truck with 1,000 miles on it....sounds like the rear passenger door is not shut good at highway speeds. Sounds alot like plain road noise.....Well, pulled out the seats and peeled the carpet back, and put down some "Dynomat" style material on the bare metal areas. I also filled the voids in the C-Pillars with foam insulation and then covered the 2-3 inch diameter holes with the material. Can't even tell a difference.

 

Have some weather strip thinking about putting on the bottom of the door, on top of the strip that's already there. NOt sure where the noise is coming from.

 

I know there's other postings about this, but no one has a solution. Was hoping I'd be the first....no dice.

Oh man...seriously?? I had the idea after NONE of this helped any, that somehow the frame is transferring the noise through to the cab.

 

If you can find the bulletin please post it. THANK YOU

Every search I'm finding says it's the cab vents on the back of the cab.

I took a piece of 1-2 inch diameter foam, about 8 inches in length, and wedged it between the bed and cab, just below the cab vent. It definitley changed the pitch to a more "tolerable" pitch. It's just more of a wind noise rather than the whine/road noise. I think covering the vent is what is going to solve this problem, but that will cause other problems that have been described before. So not sure what to do now.

My truck makes that noise also.My 07nbs crew and my 09 Denali both do it .I have tried tape to seal the bed to the cab (airflow) Taped the cab vents shut, taped around the rear doors and back glass,moved the bed to line up with the cab better,replaced the rear door seals under warranty,Not one thing has helped at all. The dealer also hears the noise but can not find anything wrong.I have found out some trucks don't make the noise as bad as others .My 07 Chevy had a sliding rear window I thought that was the problem but it wasn't. I have given up and decided to live with it. Let me say that this is the only problem that I have had . I still love my truck very much.Good luck if you find a solution please let us know.

I'm surprised that taping the vents shut didn't help....that's not a permanent solution, but I would have thought that it would have quietened down when you taped them shut.

 

I've found that if you can find something like a pool noodle (the styrofoam-like thing used in swimming pools that kids play with), and wedge a piece just under the cab vent, between the bed and cab. It's more road noise than wind noise, and that piece of foam blocks the sound that's coming off of the road and funneling up between the bed/cab. No, it's not a permanent solution, but I don't know what to do.

      The whole story is false. The screw is there as a temporary fix to allow the pump to even turn on. When the nozzle is returned the pump shuts off.. At this point people are just being punked   https://youtu.be/1DtlaEuHXAA?si=06mrRmw9HLUwdeRk   https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CyRZdsaSc/ https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1DxV1Hyrqi/       SNOPES: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19HPYUnRik/

      Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do like it. I wonder if they'll bring back Smokey Quartz Metallic? 🤔 https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/06/here-is-the-all-new-2027-gmc-sierra-1500/

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.
