If that’s your only issue I wouldn’t trade it away. But to each his own. I would schedule a test drive and make sure you drive it for at least a half hour beforehand. The noise is more likely to be prevalent. Show them the slop in the axle as well.

Well the thing is that there is no permanent fix for a majority of the people.  I love the truck in every other way, no other issues have come up besides my parking sensors acting a little wonky sometimes.  I just don't have faith that a permanent fix is out there based on what I have read so far, both here and on Facebook.  I would much rather not trade the truck since I already fixed it up the way I like.  Nothing too major but I have done muffler, exhaust tips powder coated, black and red emblems, vinyl wrapped some of the interior, Amp power step running board, etc etc and it is gonna be a pain to start all over again.  Guess I will see what happens when I take it in on Monday and go from there.

One failed repair attempt down.  They replaced the hub bearing, which of course did not fix the noise.  I took it back the following Monday and they could not hear the noise.  TBH I couldn't either but probably bc I went to the dealer in the morning when it was cooler.  This video was taken the day after the hub bearing was replace.  This is already becoming annoying.  Supposedly I have 14K equity in the truck according to KBB. Hmm what to do what to do?

Well I had some Bilstein 6112 put on the front today and now have a noise. Hoping it just needs a better alignment. What do you jingle experts think. 2020 Sierra elevation x31 with 8,000 miles. SU4

notice once I get a speed of 15 MPH. BTW Shocks feel amazing over the ranchos. Can’t wait to get the rears delivered and installed. Would warranty give me a hard time about the new shocks “causing it”

I will be following this closely as my truck started making noise last Friday on our first warm day. We went on a 120 mile round trip it was 75 degrees, I noticed the jungles soon after the truck was warmed up and didn’t say a word to my wife. I wear hearing aids and couldn’t determine the source but on the return trip my wife asked what the noise was...and my truck only has less than 5K miles! So on the next warm day this week I will try the 4WD mode to see if that changes the noise. 
I'm so happy I saw this as I knew the dealer wouldn’t of been able to confirm any noise, hopefully GM can fix our trucks the first time this time!

Sounds exactly like the issue everyone is having to me.  Pretty sure this is not an alignment issue.  Welcome to the club 😕.

They did the latest TSB on my truck a few months ago and I haven't heard the noise again. We shall see when it starts to get a bit hotter outside.

Well, my jingle is back. This time it is more noticeable in reverse when locking out left and right. Chevy dealership replaced stub shaft on PIP5653J and the other supplied parts. Scheduled a new appointment with the dealership about a new problem with an error code of brake failure code P25A2. Along with the noise, so hopefully I can chat with them about the PIP5653K that was posted earlier. My truck is literally falling apart after a year and two months of ownership. Reached out to a lawyer to review my potential case. My frustration level is threw the roof with this purchase. I'm going in for my third repair attempt for the stub shaft / front diff … So hopefully I will have a case and eventually get this resolved.

i definitely have this too. 2020 z71 crew with 11k miles. it's definitely occasional, as it takes a while for it to make the noise and seemingly doesn't make the noise other times. now i know where to pinpoint the issue when i take it in. definitely goes away when i put it into 4x4. no idea what it's called, but the metal part out from the transfer case that connects to a rubber boot is 'loose' on the drivers side, and tight on the passenger side.

2020 LM2 Z71. Dropped mine off for this and the common leaf spring noise. I handed them both bulletins and they were able to confirm both. I'm to the point where I'd like to just use Auto 4wd consistently to avoid hearing it. Mine starts after it gets warm and continually gets louder. Can't have my windows down at highway speeds. I talked to the service guy and he said he'd never seen a service bulletin go unfixed. Not sure I believe that. Hoping some diy'er comes up with a solution because I love the truck.

Several of us have apparently received successful fixes. 
 

Mine was done last November and 6,000 or so miles later no chirping. 
 

I drive 40 minutes at freeway speeds each way and used to hear it every time I got off the interstate. Nothing now.

    • I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.        
    • This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.
    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
