I talked to my GM advisor yesterday. I told her I  originally thought I should wait for the correct repair but that may never happen. So if I'm going to go the lemon law route I need to attempt a repair.so I requested to have all parts axle shaft,singer and differential replaced. I also requested to have the second dealership 60 miles away to compete the repair while supplying a loaner vehicle. I do think this is to much to ask. She did tell me engineers are currently working on a correct repair and my parts may be on back order especially with the GM strike.

Can you hear any jingles with your SU5 axle coming from ~from front left?

Anyone have an su4 axle with a good bit of miles racked up that does NOT have the jingle? I wonder if all su4 have the problem or is it just hit or miss. I remember reading earlier in this thread that their are su4’s with different part #.  Theres one guy in another thread with 8000 miiles on an su4 with no problems.

Not yet.  I'll let you know if it manifests itself.

Only have about 400 miles on it so far.

4,000 miles on my SU4. No issues so far. Model AAHD with part number 84557635. My truck was made late November 2018.

July 22nd 19 build LT TB with SU4 but only 600 miles.  Nothing to date.  Crawled under and shook,  pushed and pulled and no slop at all.  I'll keep watching.

So I asked the dealership which axle and explained to them I wanted the su5 and the reasons behind it. Their response was you get what they send us and I’m sure it’s updated with no more issues. I laughed and walked away. I can’t anymore. Gm exec called same day and I said the same things and she couldn’t believe that’s what they said to me. I really hate the fact that it seems the only way I’m going to get my buyback is with a lawyer.

Finally got my truck back. Now I’ve had some bad service experiences but this has got to take the cake. Long story short, I get a call from the service advisor. She tells me the noise I’m experiencing is due to all the aftermarket stuff I have on my truck. I’m confused. I tell her I only have an aftermarket exhaust on it. She replies with well, your truck also has an aftermarket lift on it. I’m like whatttt!, the AT4 comes with a factory 2” lift. She comes back with oh ok, well in that case, the noise is coming from the exhaust and that I should take it back to wherever I had it put on so they can fix it. This is so funny; I installed the exhaust to drown out the ringing and squeaking and this is what I get. Basically, they didn’t want to work on my truck because they were busy and were using any excuse in the book. She tells me they need my truck for an extra day and I’m like f**k no. If your techs don’t know that the AT4 comes with a factory 2” lift, then I don’t even want them messing with my truck. If you are in Houston, do yourself a favor and stay away from the service department of the GMC dealership on 59 and 8. There are some really incompetent folks there.

 

@Sin City Trail Boss and @Kozzy, wish I had better news. I did the 4wd test and I still hear the ringing and squeaking. I’m fairly confident the issue I’m having is not related to the jingling. For what It’s worth, I do have the SU4 axle but my truck was manufactured 6/19 in Mexico so maybe my SU4 has a different part #. I’ll try to get under the truck and take a picture of the part # for you guys to compare.

    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
    • I have 2 choices. 
    • Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
