I have a 2017 LTZ and have had a few different problems. This is one I just happened to notice recently. I am not sure when it started because I am bangin my music from the time I get in my truck until I get out. Anyway, my brake pedal makes a weird squeak when depressing the pedal. Now that I have heard it it is driving me nuts. But what's even worse than that is the invisible bird(s) in my engine compartment. There's a high pitch squeaky chirp that I hear when idling. I have taken it in the shop for this and they said it's normal. I'm not dumb nor an idiot so I'm like no, it's not. I have had alot of vehicles and the only noise I have heard similar is a belt or a bearing going out in something. Anyway, help! Please.

I had this issue on my 2007 Silverado. I found that turning up the radio eliminates the problem............

Wish it were that easy. I actually thought that. So, I took my shoes off. Squeak, squeak, squeak.

WD-40? Usually fixes everything. LOL

I have the same annoying squeak when I press the brake pedal. Like everyone else, I've tried white lithium grease every where with no success. But, simply by adjusting the pedals closer to me with the electric button on the center console....the squeak is now gone! But if I return the pedals to the furthest away position, then the squeak returns.

Very old thread but this happened to me with a 2015 Silverado today. I saw this as I was researching why. I decided to spray the brake rod that's entering the firewall with wd40 and the squeaky noise is gone

      upgrading speakers on 2026 std cab WT...

      By bwiese · Posted

      I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose

      Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
