Hi people, new to the forums. I have a 2016 Silverado crewcab 4x4 z71 with 17k miles. Over the last few months my truck has been "jerking" or feeling like a hard slam when coming to a slow stop or after I hit the gas pedal. I'm scheduling an appointment to get checked out, but looking for input on possible cause or better way to describe it. Additionally, I've noticed the truck idling really rough lately. My kid even said "why is he truck shaking". It's not like this always, but becoming more frequent.

 

Appreciate any info. Thanks!

New software release see for the 2017's. Did a bunch of them today. Stop in the dealer and see if yours is updated.

 

This applies to the MYC 6 speed by the way

I had the same thing happen with the rough idling with my truck for about a week at around 18,000 miles... everything is fine now. As for the jerk at stop and go my truck does that as well, I've read that this is the normal operating conditions on these transmissions unfortunately

My 2017 Yukon Denali suffered from random "missing" - car would run rough, jerk and chug at idle and only sometimes throw a CEL. Dealer had it for 2 days, couldn't duplicate and no saved codes. Happened again yesterday on the highway, flashing CEL and was able to get OnStar to run a diagnostic while heading for the dealer - OnStar said P0300. Light was still on when I pulled into dealer. They determined bad injector and are replacing - we'll see if this fixes it. When it would start to miss it felt as if car was driving over those rumble strips you occasionally see on the highways.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'll ask the to check software and see if they're seeing anything like this locally. Sucks to buy an expensive truck to have issues.

Went to one dealership and was told that it's normal in newer chevys due to air compression. I was also told it has like 32 computers on board so the idling is normal unless the check engine comes on. I went to another dealership and hey said it has some wiggle room, but I shouldn't feel a significant jerk. Now I have to figure out how to make sure it happens when they test drive lol.

Wait, what?!?!

 

I have been following this issue for a while now and saw the latest notice on TechLink. But even that one says it only applies to the 8-speed.

 

Great to hear it works on the 5.3L / 6-speed. I'll be asking my dealer about this!!

Supposedly fuel injector cleaner will fix the rough idle (brother was complaining about it, said that cleared it up) You would think a new truck would have clean injectors though

Mine had been doing this, 2016 silverado 5.3 z71, put fuel injector cleaner as well and it cleared it up some. Idles smoother now. Have 24k miles.

I did BG fuel cleaner today, so we will see if they helps out some. Otherwise, the jerking feeling when coming to a stop we couldn't replicate at the dealer. I'll keep an eye on it.

      Clunk when putting truck into drive and reverse.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
