Mine sounded similar, more like a Styrofoam cooler lid squeaking.  My fix was the transmission wiring bundle was rubbing.  It sounds like deep in the dash but it was just under and outside the firewall.

I have the exact same noise. Did they drop the tranny to get to this?

No.  I believe it was a 10 minute fix, just reroute the wiring somehow.  I am not sure how they secured it but it has not made a squeak since.

Any chance you could provide the dealer info so we can have other dealers contact them to help fix this problem?

Mine is more of a creaking noise and it’s pretty loud, way worse when cold.  Annoys the hell out of me. Worst part of the truck actually. Happens 5-10 times on cold mornings on a 10 minute drive to work.

 

Hi Jacob, my 2019 tahoe squeaks in the cold weather. If you push up and down on bumper or even entering/exiting truck, hitting bumps, it squeaks. We figured out it is brake line which is rubbing on metal bracket. ( bracket is right below back passenger door). If you jiggle the black brake line correctly, you can cause the squeak (especially when cold out).

 

They just released a bulletin in November for a fix. It requires special tape to be wrapped around the line where it passes through bracket. Fingers crossed that it will correct the problem.. i am waiting on my upcoming appointment for a fix.

 

Hope this helps!

Did anyone else get this fixed? I have the exact sqeak like a Styrofoam cooler lid or case of water bottles. It's driving me crazy. I had transmission work done so maybe the wiring bundle. What was the fix? 2019 gmc 3500

Bump for this thread. I’ve had this issue since day one and after 15000 miles it’s gotten worse. It seems if I push my fingers in the gap between the console and upper dash it minimizes it but doesn’t eliminate it. Ruins an otherwise reasonably smooth ride. Of course the dealer says they can’t replicate…. 2020 Silverado 1500 LTZ.

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
