My truck has been at the dealership since yesterday to put on a set of stockers to let me drive around so they can prove it's the nitto tires that are causing the vibrations.

Well my friend, my days of sierra vibrations have ended. I traded her in for a 2017 ram copperhead sport. They paid my truck off and lowered my payments and this thing is smooth as silk up to even 90 mph. The ride is more comfortable, and just seems like I got more truck for my money. I wish u all the best of luck on ur journey of getting ur vibes fixed. Take care.

So I rode around with the tech, there was a vibration could see it in center console he even said he feels something. Left it overnight, they loaned me a 2017 double cab, holy shit that thing shook LOL, would have been embarrassed selling that to someone, anyway, he called me next day and said its ready. I get there and he tells me Pico scope was within specs and operating as normal. I record a video as I get on highway and the waterbottles were shaking, console was shaking. What a joke. The "service advisor" guy was a dick to. I'll reach out to my sales guy and see if he can be of some assistance, cant wait until I get my 94 out from storage for spring, atleast shes smooth as silk.

Call GM at the number in your owners hand book!

Ask them to get involved, that your truck and steering wheelshakes and it is causing your hands to loose feeling.

That should get them interested!

Drove the Silverado to Columbus Ohio Friday was ok going down , only went up to 71 MPH on the interstate . Came home Tuesday morning truck running smooth at 70 MPH and decided to take her up , ok at 71 , took to 72 not perfect , took to 73 MPH and the steering wheel started shaking , went back down to 70 smooth again , back up to 73 MPH and shaking again !

 

I have been experimenting with my truck and know what is causing the shaking up front ! We all know that GM engineers read this form so I will wait to see if someone has the balls to contact me but I will not hold my breath !!!!!!!!!

 

I'm sure they will not believe what is wrong

 

 

I had to log back in just to reply to this one. All hail this guy !!!! The genius figured it out, the issue (at least in his case) is the nut behind the wheel LOL

Hey C6Bill

 

​You sound like a typical engineer that never got out of his baby crib !

 

Note some people just get into what ever they are driving and never pay attention to what it is trying to tell them , hint I was a farmer and being a farmer you listen to your machine !

​Hey bill I forgot to tell you the real important stuff , I filled up about 1 mile from the interstate and drove about 136 miles and my MPG was the lowest ever 17.1 !!! Past trips same road well over 22 MPG ,,, hint my guess GM will be getting big repair bill soon as a machine can not stand the abuse this truck has taken !

Stand down Softtail, this guy has GM right where he wants them. He's gonna go all whistle blower on them LOL

He's thinking I tracked his brain waves and busted his windshield with my engineers baby crib. That will teach him to leave his foil hat off for too long.

 

 

Here's some more yummy troll food for him.

    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
