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

Well there you have it then, problem solved, everyone posting in this thread with vibration issues is just "super sensitive" or full of shit. All the buy backs, trade assists, and replaced parts were for nothing, just a bunch of super sensitive overgrown cry babies.
Why come to this thread just to tell everyone they are full of shit, last I knew to be a member of this forum there is not a requirement to post in this thread.

So if my problem is that I am super sensitive to vibration did I just happen to find a cure on my way to the Toyota dealer ?

The tundra must have dulled my sensors

 

I Can't feel any vibration

Since I traded in my Sierra

 

Strange. I feel fine , I don't do drugs

 

Maybe the Sierra vibration was my imagination after all

 

LMAO

Damn I tried the Toyota fix, even went with their premium brand Lexus. Now I have 2 vehicles that vibrate. Be right back , I have some service appointments to make! I should not be feeling the road in these vehicles it's unacceptable! /sarcasm

 

I guess you guys took our comments out of context. Of course there is a vibration issue with these trucks nobody is saying there isn't. We were talking about the people that drove 15 GM trucks and said all of them vibrate, yea ok buddy. I drove a few when shopping and none vibrated. You are either super sensitive or have the worst luck in selecting trucks.

I have a 14 Silverado 4x4 1500 w/20" wheels. Vibration feels the worst at 65 till 72mph.

I have complained about it since new. They have balanced and rotated at every service. They have road force balanced also.

at 21,000 they replaced 3 of the tires. Same issue took back they replaced 2 of the 3 they had just put on. Before they called me they replace one of the 2 they just put on.???? maybe it's not the tires.

They ran it with a Peeko meter? I was told it's within specs. I call Bulls t! They had me come in after I told them that the 2, 16 models that they loaned me were not like mine.

They took the 18" tires and wheels off the loaner and put them on mine. I drove it with the tech. It was still there. Maybe not as bad but didn't come in till 80-85mph on the dash. They told me they would not do anything else to it. that speed is above any posted speed limit therefore GM was out!. I tried to explain that smaller wheel and smaller tire caused speedo calibration to be off, therefore to duplicate the same condition it would show faster than it was going. They argued that and said that they would not do anything else to it. What can I do? I suggested a different brand tire, driveshaft or shocks. I have seen posts on here from Jennifer at GM. who do I call.

I bought and have had it serviced at Jim Trenary Chevrolet in OFallon, MO.

It should be better with a $50,000.00 price tag

Thanks

I just thought of something. When you guys are getting tires replaced, especially if they are changing one and two at time, is GM shaving the new tires down to match the diameter of your other tires? Just curious because it could create some differential issues.

Something to consider, might not be your fix but it was for me. Good luck.

Actually I don't own either of them any longer, these are the new rides

 

 

And it was a 2014 6.2 High Country, it was the second 2014.

      Would this CV Shaft be bad?

      By anthony2558 · Posted

      Would this be normal or a worn CV Shaft? 51K miles 3.5" lift? Boots are intact and no visible leaks showing. Attached is a the video I took. Thanks     https://youtu.be/ZnW7PPRmjJY?feature=shared

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      If everything checks out at the MAF, then the MAF is BAD, new or not.   You don't need a signal generator to troubleshoot this. PCM needs ALL powers and ALL grounds able to light a halogen headlight bulb - if it can light the bulb bright, then the wiring is good enough to run the PCM.   Best thing you can do for yourself is spend some time here: scannerdanner.com - Check out all his YouTube videos on similar issues. If you decide to subscribe it's the best bang-for-buck ratio in the automotive world, hands-down. He's got TONS of free vids on YouTube, too.

      By contrabombarde · Posted

      Yes, I used my multimeter to probe all of the wires at the MAF, both with the sensor connected, sensor disconnected, key on engine off, key on engine running, etc etc etc. I probed all of the wires again at the PCM, at the connectors, etc. All voltages are what they should be according to the service manual/wiring diagrams. All grounds are good, less than 20 millivolts from the battery negative under load. Both at the connector of the MAF, at the PCM connector etc.      I know this throws a pretty big wrench into things, but this truck was acting up before the swap. I don't have very much information, if any on what was causing it, but if you cleared all of the dtcs it would do the same thing where it would crank, fire, then die. And it would do the same thing a dozen or so times, and eventually it would start and run, but the difference is that it would run and actually be drivable. Whereas now if you can drive it at all, it goes into reduced power mode almost immediately, and even then it's not running correctly. When you come to a stop at a light it stumbles down to for 500 RPM before catching itself and returning to the smooth idle. And if you go more than about 50% throttle then it immediately goes back to doing the misfire thing.    Like I said, I know that throws a wrench into things, and unfortunately I was not able to pull any data or anything like that before I did this work, so I don't have much to go on.    I'm trying to not fixate on one particular thing as the cause of the problem, but it seems like all avenues are pointing me towards the PCM. Like I said I have tested the wiring extensively (see above), and during cranking the sensor does produce seemingly legitimate values at least according to my multimeter, but as soon as the engine fires those values quickly descend into gibberish. I've tried it with multiple different known working sensors, I have done literally every test I can think of multiple times on the wiring (probing the signals, probing the pins with the sensors unplugged, probing the pins at the PCM, voltage drop, voltage drop under load, continuity, ohms, and double-checking everything against the wiring diagrams/ proper values in the service data.)    Another thing that pushes me towards a possible PCM failure is, I have noticed in troubleshooting a little bit taking a break and coming back, that when I leave the truck to sit for a while and cool off, it starts and runs smoothly when I first start it up. However once it warms up. It starts having problems. For example, when I went out to the truck this morning after it had been sitting overnight, I was actually able to drive it down the block. And then once I got on the throttle a Little bit after going about a thousand ft, it started misfiring again. I pulled it back into the driveway, shut it down, and started it back up. It idled smoothly. As soon as I touched the throttle it did the misfire thing again. From then on as soon as I started it it would misfire. I shut the truck off and went to go get a coffee and do a bit more research. When I came back out I started the truck up and it immediately went into the smooth idle. After a couple of minutes of playing around with it, it would not idle smoothly anymore. Let it sit a couple of hours, rinse and repeat. This makes me think with temperature change something is going wrong inside the PCM. I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle and I'm thinking of getting a one-day subscription to the ACDelco programming service to try and program that and see if it helps.   Like I said, I'm really trying to not fixate myself on one potential cause, but it seems everything is pointing me towards PCM failure. I would really like to try to confirm that, but unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope or a signal generator to do the GM service procedure where you feed 5 khz into the signal pin.

      Ahh, sorry about that - I got some bad info. Newdude is correct. That's what I get for working 13 hours straight ... on my "vacation", lol.   Should've checked the files I had instead of the internet.   Anyway ... this is GREAT news, since this would've been an absolute friggin nightmare to get working.   I don't think the lack of VVT is causing this - you've got another issue. Wiring, I'm betting.   I'm telling you right now, your computer isn't bad. If it worked before the swap, it's working now. You need to do some more (better) diagnostics and figure out exactly what you're missing. Did you test every wire directly at the MAF? Have 5V reference? Ground? If you're reading ZERO g/s, your Hz isn't much use - it's going to be the wrong value anyway. The MAF is not working, and you need to find out WHY.   I got this off the net, so VERIFY first: Pin A: Black (BLK) wire, Circuit 552, serves as the Sensor Return (Ground).  Pin B: Tan (TAN) wire, Circuit 472, carries the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) signal.  Pin C: Yellow (YEL) wire, Circuit 492, is the primary MAF Sensor Signal output to the PCM. Pin D: Pink (PNK) wire, Circuit 339 or 539, provides Ignition 1 Voltage (Power).  Pin E: Tan/Black wire, Circuit 552 or similar, often associated with the Intake Air Temperature ground or signal return.  Global-A list: https://postimg.cc/KKJnQC85
