Well folks, I did it. After all the failed attempts at the Chevy dealer I traded it in for a 2015 Ram 1500 Larame. I have to agree with the other folks on here that have done the same thing, it was th

Apparently you and the other customer reps don't care. If you or GM would care y'all would put more effort in the matter. Just coming on the forum and stating the same repetitive posts and being a 3

Well I have some good news and bad news about my truck vibrations. Good news is that my truck has a significantly less vibration at speed. The bad news is my truck has significantly less vibration. Fo

Sorry Jesse

 

Thought I had posted some. I need to get a few new ones now that it is all done up the way I want it. But this is how it looked right off the lot.

the last few mornings here in tampa have been chilly mid to upper 50's the tire pressure has dropped to 31-32lbs in all my tires. tuesday and wednesday on my way to work driving the same road the vibrations where gone, no more 74-75 shake. filled tires back to 37lbs like I always had shake is back at 75.

Interesting.

The truck recommends 32psi on all 4. I wouldnt think the PSI in the tires could have that much effect??

more pressure = stiffer/ harsher ride my truck says 35 psi....

Anyone have an issue with the BBB just not getting back to them? Ive been working with them for 6 months now and we are finally down to the last step which is arbitration I believe yet no one has called me in 4 weeks and I call/email every couple of days with no response. Im getting extremly annoyed with the BBB and their lack of customer service....they are almost as bad as GM! I guess you get what you dont pay for!

I have a 2015 6.2L LTZ 4x4 Crewcab. Took it in for an oil change (second change, mileage 12k) this past Monday and service rep upon pulling my truck up on his PC said "you've got three recalls, want to get them done while its here". I said sure. Picked my truck up yesterday. All three recalls had to do with the 4x4 drive.

 

Bulletin 15389: torque converter clutch shudder. Transmission controll module reprogrammed.

 

Bulletin 15396: harsh shift when starting in low temperatures. Replaced transmission controll wiring harness.

 

Bulletin 15304: 4WD always engaged in cold ambient temperatures. Reprogram transfer case control module.

 

Btw, I personally have not experienced any of the recall problems. But, I live in the Dallas area and I have not as yet had a reason to use 4WD. just thought I would share the info, especially being one of the recalls addressed a shudder problem.

Need some help here.

 

Purchased a 15 Silverado 1500

 

I have noticed vibration when driving at highway speeds

 

They balanced my tires and and did an alighment.....I am still running into the same issue.

 

I am going to take it to the dealer tomorrow, is there anything specific I should ask/tell them to get my vechicle fixed? This is only happening at highway speeds.

 

You can either read through all 464 pages of posts on this forum, or just pray. Most people that have not had luck after balance, new tires, RF balance, have moved on to BBB or lemon law to have their truck bought back.

My truck (2015 Sierra All Terrain) recommends 35lbs. in all four tires.

 

EDIT: I have 265/65's on 18" rims.

      Video processing module location

      By twgraham · Posted

      Can someone tell me where the video processing module is in a 2023 Silverado? I'm getting conflicting results that it's in the front passenger area or the rear passenger area behind the seat.

      Missing thrust bearing? And oil selection

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes I agree, its what amounts to free advertising to let people know about his UOA testing company, and not that there is anything wrong with that but certainly that is a motivator for putting out videos about the science of oil as well as other topics such as oil and air filtration etc. The interesting part I found with his last video is not only the physics behind the reason for the varying wear due to a diesels working torque range causing more bearing load and that higher viscosity oil is of benefit, it was also that the chemistry behind the GM Dexos 0W-20 and the Mobil Dexos licensed 0W-20 are far enough apart that its showing up with a difference in wear even though the two oils are matched in viscosity and in that comparison viscosity was not having the finger pointed at it.    There are a few youtubers out there or one anyway that I have watched a bit of who has gone through the pains of accessing various countries manuals for a certain engine platform and while in the US/Canada it may say use 0W-20 or what have you for some Toyota product, in some other countries it sings a very different tune for the very same engine with the typical traditional oil viscosity/ambient temperature charts to help choose which oil viscosity is correct for the conditions the vehicle will be used in and in some cases its taken an engine in a US manual that states only use 0W-20 as per warranty coverage and yet that same engine in certain other countries may have up to a 15W-40 etc oil option that meets the spec. Another words the guy who is driving through Death Valley or Phoenix and south weather at 120f is often being fed a line of bs by the US system that has forced vehicle companies to restrict the warranty to a specific low viscosity oil for anterior reasons as well as the long drain interval suggestions.    Thankfully youtube is free ( yet anyway ) for viewers to sift through information and of course comes with the good and the bad ( truth and lies ) and we can choose to turn off/not watch what a person finds is bs or just not interested in the topic.

      No doubt... But, as someone who doesn't pay for his services, but who has provided a few views/clicks on his Youtube platform, the data around the Mobil oil testing I think does have some value including to "freeloaders" like me.   A lot of what he's doing is likely showing the OE's work in their oil selection, something that many of us had kind of assumed was true all along, a good balance of both excellent protection and efficiency.

      Lake Speed is drumming up business for his company just by being in the spot-light so he has a vested interest in stoking the 0W-20 fire.  IMO

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I knew when I bought my truck that it had off road hill decent or craw control or whatever they call it and rolled my eyes at that but it gets throw on with other options my truck has, I just never had a heads up if the highway speed regular cruise setting had anything to do with the brakes and that took me by surprise. If you've ever been to the top of Pikes Peak and watched those ahead of you on the way down with their brake lights on constantly, one can guess they are probably not gearing down or not enough anyway if their vehicle will allow and a good reason their is a brake check spot part way down where they use an infra red heat gun to check how hot ones brakes are front and rear.    Your right that once one gets out of the front range by Denver and I've not been on that stretch of 285 between Denver and Fairplay myself but I know its high and Fairplay at 10000 feet, Buena Vista at 8000, it drops a bit from there but then your going back up and over the 11000 pass and Durango is at 6500 . So yes your definitely right that 6500 and a lot higher is the theme of going anywhere out in that direction from Denver but hey, the down hill sections give fantastic fuel mileage !.    I don't even look at the fuel pumps for what premium costs here, since I live on a farm and up to this point get fuel delivered I am rarely in front of a fuel pump and when I am, I am often using card lock bulk fuel stations so it tells me what the price is AFTER I buy the fuel. Looking up on gas buddy and converting to US gallons but in Canadian dollars, regular on average of the prices listed was around 5.95 and premium is around 7.00 . That was one reason I did not go for the 6.2 half ton aside from its lack of carrying/towing if one was going by the rule of using premium fuel and until recently one could only buy regular farm gas if playing the few cents off game for farm dyed fuel for a "farm licensed pickup". But yes I hear you on the fuel price difference and like the diesel theme with it often being more expensive then gas it doesn't have quite the charm to it either as it once did although right now here for some reason the price of diesel has come down more so its now inline with the price of regular gas.
