I think the point was this was for troubleshooting to eliminate if the chirp was coming from the adaptive valve, so I would not be worried about the chopper noise. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatal

I have a new 2019 denali 4 door 6.2, it just turned 2,000 miles and it has a chirping noise under the hood at start up most of the time.It sounds like a belt making noise and lasts for about 30 to 45 seconds .Took it to the dealer and they are saying it is in the exhaust and that GM is stating that it is normal. I have owned a lot of vehicles over the years and never had one or heard of one thats supposed to chirp for a while when started. Anybody else notice this also

2019 high country 6.2L also same here and they said it’s normal.

Had this for a while, same as others. Seems to be only affecting the 6.2 with 10 speed. I'm almost certain at this point the chirping is coming from the 10-speed. Try this test, when you cold start it, put it in drive right away and press the accelerator pedal very lightly, the chirp will be a bit louder.

Changed my exhaust to a Borla and still have the chirp.  It is not the exhaust.

 

How noticeable is the chirp now since you replaced the exhaust & what exactly did you replace?

Yikes glad I found this thread!  I have a 2021 6.2L 10-speed Chevy Trailboss LT.  Mine has done the same from new.  When im slowing down to come to a stop right before I get to a complete stop there is an audible chirp.  It goes away when stopped and doesnt appear when accelerating.  Only decelerating.  

 

I had the muffle and adaptive valve deleted and its still there.  Funny thing is the dealer is saying put it back to stock as they usually check the adaptive valve to see if thats the issue....Well I deleted it duhhhhh and its still an issue.

 

Luckily another dealer is going to do a full once over.  Its annoying and sounds cheap but as long as its not hurting the truck I guess I just deal with it.

 

If anyone else has a solution though let me know!

Just got a 21 AT4 6.2L and when i remote start is sounds like a sqeaking/chirping belt. Drives me crazy. Don't really have the time to goto the dealer with it at this point.

I have a 2020 6.2 Trailboss I have a muffler/flap delete and thought that maybe the lack of backpressure/reverberation was causing it because it sounded to be in the exhaust. I have a Borla Atak coming i was hoping would remedy the issue, sounds like it wont.

Did they say what is causing it? I was going to take mine down but have been down this road before with the dealers..."cant reproduce" "its normal"...$66,000 truck shouldn't chirp and squeak like a POS....my last 4 trucks haven't done this. Very annoyed with you.

It's the starter.  I didn't believe them at first and they don't know exactly how the starter is creating the chirping, but they said there's a noticeable reduction in the sound with a new starter.  They replaced mine, and it is better but still there for about a second.  Previously it would last several minutes after startup.

Yeah mine lasts a long time too, sounds like a belt in an old POS car haha.

I just purchased a 2021 Sierra, 6.2L.  Same noise.  Frustrating to see this thread without a solution.  I've had it to the dealer twice and told they couldn't hear it, only to hear it at ever stop on the way home.  I'm going to try another GMC dealership... i'm hoping this is corrected.  Embarrassing and frustrating to hear on a brand new truck.  I'll post if anything is resolved.

Yep my 20' did this but only at cold start and autostarts.  My 21' I now hear doing it at low speed downshifts as well. 

 

It's interesting it's the starter since I'm hearing it downshifting as well.  I haven't tried it yet but I've read at least a couple people on facebook say that running in L9 (which disables DFM and autostop) also stops the noise at low speed downshifts. 

 

I've heard GM claim it's everything from the high pressure fuel pump, exhaust flappers, stator, starter, so far I don't think I've seen anything conclusive that was replaced and has eliminated the noise for anyone.   You'd think after 3 models years they'd have this sorted out.

      Scan Tool Recommendation

      By CamGTP · Posted

      I have an Autel, works great for what it is. Can't do some specific things because you need say the GM tool, VCDS for Audi/Volkswagon and others of course. But those times are few and far between for me.   The other tool I'd like to try one day is the new Topdon scan tools. Seen several video's on them and many youtube people review them.    I've never subscribed for updates or payed to do that stuff on my Autel, so I'm sure I'm missing out on some of the updates but I'm fine with that for now.

      Scan Tool Recommendation

      By AndrewF · Posted

      I am in the market for a bidirectional scan tool so was hoping someone can help point me in the right direction. There are so many options out there it is hard to narrow down which make/model to choose.   I have always done my own vehicle work so looking to maximize capability with the scanner. Ideal price is $1k or less but would be willing to exceed if it opens up significant benefits.  Currently my 24 2500 is the newest vehicle but also have a few mid to late 2010s Subarus as well.    It seems that the Autel MP900 has a decent amount of features at a reasonable price?

      Silverado 4500-5500-6500 are they still being produced? Would have sold better as GMCs as well

      By C/K Man · Posted

      There was talk over the last couple of years that the contract to build these trucks between GM and International would not be renewed.  International moved production of all their other trucks besides the companion CV model out of the Springfield plant some time ago when they opened their San Antonio plant.  That left Springfield only building the Silverado Medium Duty, International CV Series, and some Express/Savanna long wheelbase cutaways.  International also put the plant up for sale some time ago.  This all answered my earlier question as to why GM and International did nothing with these trucks since they were introduced, as they had basically become a market 'placeholder' with a finite life.    The Silverado Medium Duty/International CV trucks were interesting combination of a GM powertrain, electrical system, and K2XX Silverado cab with an International chassis that was supposedly designed for a step-van type vehicle they never produced.  They were manufactured in International's Springfield plant along with the IH MV series initially.  When first introduced, there was much talk that the Silverado Medium Duty/CV would eventually get a gasoline engine option along with other upgrades and GM and IH would work on a class 6/7 joint venture truck.  This was before VW bought Navistar out, after that happened no more was said.  Draw your own conclusions...   About the time talk started that the GM/IH joint venture was not going to be renewed, rumors started that GM would develop a new line of medium duty trucks themselves.  The story is the new trucks will be part of the next generation HD's due in 2028, and will still feature a 'straight rail' chassis design that the current medium duty has.  GM views this as a desirable feature that differentiates their truck from the competition.  A gasoline engine option is also expected.  As the current Silverado Medium Duty remains in production until September 2026 and there is still a lot of inventory available do not expect any official word for some time.   I believe GM remains committed to their successful partnership with Isuzu, and all the LCF models will still be available from Chevy Commercial dealers.  Isuzu is on the cusp of opening a new large plant in South Carolina and there is also speculation that this may result in new product for both Isuzu and Chevy Commercial dealers.
