I was experiencing vibrations after 70 mph. The dealer replaced the tires and wheels and the high speed vibration is gone. I have also noticed some shutter in the steering wheel at low speeds when the truck is shifting gears I believe. I guess it could be coming from the transmission?

I just drove to the highway today to go "for a drive" just because it makes me feel good to drive my truck :)

Ok just to update on my vibration problems.

 

I decided to take matters into my own hands . I lifted the back of my truck up to see the back tires spinning. low and behold the back left wheel/ tire is wobbling . Not much but it looks like this could be the problem . I pulled the wheel and tire off and had it checked at a tire shop and it seems to be fine . But when I mount it to the truck it wobbles . The problem seems to be with the adapter that is mounted to the trucks factory lug bolts . It seems to be defective . My wheels are chevy 22" wheels . I am going to request some wheels that do not require adapters . I will have an update in a week when I get my truck into service

I have the SEY 22's and I am not aware of any adapter. Maybe a hubcentric ring?

I don't think these adpaters come from factory? This must be a dealer add on they sold you.

can you send along a picture of this.

All the stock wheels should not have any adapters or hub-centric rings. I'm pretty sure they are lug-centric from the factory.

OEM wheels whether factory or accessory do not use adapters!

Just got the new updated exhaust on my truck today. It looks the same as the old exhaust but when it went to V4 mode there was no vibration or drone. I will keep an ear out for it and let everyone know if it stays good

I once had a vibration noise around or in my transmission on my new 2002 Chevy Silverado. It was driving me nuts. They checked everything underneath and protection shield etc. I went into the garage about 4 times. Finally they fixed and it was only a software issue which took them about 20 minutes to update the on board computer. I don't know if this is the case or part of it but I thought it was something loose underneath the truck. It was real nice when it was fixed.

    • I have a 2000 Silverado 1500 LS, whenever I put it into reverse and also in drive it clunks, the truck also feels sluggish when driving. Any advice/ideas ?
    • Looks like it's riveted to me. What is wrong with that 1? Welcome to the Forum!
    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
