traded my '14 in on a '17

sic02ss · October 13, 2016

Traded my '14 LTZ 5.3 in and ordered a '17 Z71 LTZ 6.2L/8speed. I loved my 14 but regretted not having the 6.2 so I ordered one with everything I wanted and took delivery on it last Thursday, Im absolutely happy I waited and ordered one instead of settling for one off the lot again. The new front end is sick and I love the 8speed, there are a few things that I feel were better quality on the 14 but my biggest problem right now is my 17 HAS THE CHEVY SHAKE!!!!!!!!!!

the truck only has 300 miles on it , I ve read that it could be the driveshaft or TQ converted.. can anyone help?? I want to put exhaust on, my CAI off the old truck and plan to do shackles in the rear to drop it level but I wanna get the shake fixed so the dealer wont blame mods for the issue

Here are some pictures for fun

wheels off the 14 on the 17

Same interior as my old one but silver instead of wood grain and this one has a moonroof

Could be the tires too, i had the shake with Goodyear eagles, dealer put on all new tires and its gone. Heard the sra's have the same issue.

Until it started leaking.

Until it started leaking.

Many people have sunroofs that don't leak

Until it started leaking.

LOL, valid point.

I would love a moonroof too. wouldn't even care if it leaked lol

You will probably like it more than the 14. I traded my 14 on a 2016 and was surprised how much more I liked it.

How much did the trade cost ya? I have a 14 as well, approaching 100k miles. Debating if it's time....

Not a truck but the sunroof in my 2007 Pontiac G5 still doesn't leak.

How about those front ranch struts? I know they are new but that doesn't always mean that they are good. Just throwing that out here.

Try new tires, wheels, driveshaft, torque converter, rear end, hubs, bearings, weights on your exhaust, new body mounts, add 400 pounds of sand in the bed, shim the right motor mount, play with pinion angle, add clamps to the leaf springs... Works 60% of the time, every time.

qwank · October 13, 2016

did it shake before you swapped the wheels from your old truck? Did you have the new tires mounted to your old wheels? The guy who balanced them could have done a bad job on them.

O_J_Simpson · October 13, 2016

Why on earth did you take delivery if it has the GM shakes?

sic02ss · October 13, 2016

The wheels and tires were on it before the shake, I took delivery of it with 3 miles, It didn't start shaking until 225 miles. I doubt it's the exhaust or the tires, I know what the vibration from it switching to v4 feels like and it's definitely not that, the steering wheel, center console and pass seat shake noticeably without a doubt.. taking it in next week.
