my 2015 SLT 2500 HD was the same. interiors are the same. I should have learned my lesson with that truck. the GM's look so good though:cool:

See attached photo.....-21 Celsius and no creaking or cracking from the interior...I've had my truck for two years and the temperatures go from +40C to -40C..

I guess I'm lucky??

I've also not heard anyone I else know locally with these problems.906c727531f11dad7713b709ae2653b6.jpg

A spray can of silicone spray works marvels! Every car or truck of any make that I have ridden in in the last 30 years has squeaks and rattles.

You must have the most perfect truck ever built.  Perfect transmission, perfectly silent interior, perfectly seamless AFM.  You should never sell that truck.  Or you just don’t notice what your truck is actually doing underneath you. It’s fine either way, I wasn’t complaining. It is a well known fact that plastic and other interior pieces will creak against each other. I hear it in my dads $200,000 Mercedes and $80,000 Infiniti and $80,000 Audi Q7. Like I said, it’s part of the deal. 

I’d expect a rattle free experience from a Rolls Royce, other than that, most vehicles will develop some noise while driving at some point.

Thank you.  Couldn't agree more.  Some people are just oblivious to these things, and others notice them.  Sounds like the OP is one that notices these things, and he will also notice it in a new 2019, I am sad to say.

Some people also don't have them....

It's not impossible to not experience these things. Could be lucky enough not to...

yep I do, and it bothers me, unfortunately. :sigh:

It just seems like this new truck rattles way more than any other truck I have owned (and that is a lot).

all of the rattles are from the center console and the trim around the center of the dash. I can push on the dash or grab the sides of the console and make them stop. The Ford I sold to get this truck was not like this, but it had other issues.

My 2015 is one of the quietest vehicles I have owned.  It did have some minor dash squeaks but I didn't want the dealer tearing into things since they don't always get it back together correctly.  There are TSB's online that show areas where the Techs are supposed to put flocking tape to eliminate dash squeaks.  Just buy yourself a roll of this:

 

https://www.amazon.com/J-V-Converting-FLOCK-1-BLK05833-Flocking/dp/B07J34NTWJ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1542654513&sr=8-4&keywords=flocking+tape

 

in whatever size you like to work with.  When you hear a dash squeak remove the affected piece, place small strips of the tape near all the clips and areas where the panel fits against other pieces of the dash, and reinstall the piece.  This takes care of 99% of the squeaks the first time.

I also have a rattle from the rear headrest depending on temperature. If i drop them forward, the noise stops.

I just switched the rear headrest around and my rattle stopped. :smash:

 

Meaning you turned it backwards?

Yup, I've got the same issue with mine. Otherwise the interior is tight, no squeaks or rattles anywhere.

    • Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.
    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
