Mine is a clicking. I don’t know how to post a video on here then I would show you. Shop can’t replicate the sound apparently which is a bummer.

Go back a few posts and see my video. You can hear mine click a few times. Does it sound like mine?

That’s my sound. Must’ve been another video I watched on the comments here.

Well an update sorta.  Thursday GM called me and told me they were going to replace my truck with a new one of equal feature.  They said they'd call me back today with details but have not heard from them.   Tried calling my rep but no answer and no returned call after leaving a couple of messages.  Thursday during the call they wanted to three way call the BBB and drop my complaint immediately. I told them no and now I'm back to being ignored it seems.  Poor customer service and it doesn't seem to bother them.  I spoke with the lady from the BBB today and she said I had eligible Lemon Law case so I guess that's the route I'm gonna have to go.  Can't believe how long this has gone on and how out of touch the people that can actually really help you are. 

I had the same issue minus the BBB stuff. I couldn't get a call back about my case, and they would screen my calls. As soon as I called from a different number my case rep would answer. They wouldn't allow me to talk to management either. Their customer service is truly a joke.

Can you pm me your dealers name and service writer's phone number and your work order number? Mine is scheduled for the jingle fix on Friday and I'll tell them it didn't fix yours, I'd like to give them the name and phone number in case they'd like to call them. I'd rather not have them do it if it doesn't fix it.

your better off letting them try to fix it. that way you have more attempts at repair documented if you decide to lemon law the truck. 

 

The dealer isn't going to care that it didn't fix someone's else's truck. They are doing this fix per what GM is telling them to do.

Exactly what ^^he^^ said let them try it out. It may fix it. It may not. It didn’t for me and probably won’t for you. However, it’s another attempt for your records. I called the dealership and Chevy and of course im waiting for a call back. I don’t remember if I asked or if this has been asked already but does this effect trailbosses as well?

Did you get the old parts or did you see them? I find it hard to believe GM would make that big of mistake. I would tend to believe the mechanics only did part of the work.

I never saw parts. Not really my job to do that. They ordered the parts that were supposed to fix the issues as per tsb. I’m waiting for call back

There are some shady things happen at some dealerships. Some caused by lazy techs. I feel for ya, but when do you call BS and enough is enough. Dumping it like I did is extremely costly. Wishing you luck!

Taking my truck in on Friday so service can go with me for drive so they can hear the.noise. What I'm reading here isn't encouraging. The jingle noise can really get on your nerves.

Does the front axle still have the movement/slop where it enters the differential?

Posted

The dealership called me today after they installed the so called FIX and it didn't work. The jingle is still present. He said he was going to call the engineer, I suggested they put a front axle made by GM, they seem to not have a problem.  My have to end up hiring a lemon lawyer

Can someone answer me this.

 

Aside from the noise, will this have long term effect if left unfixed or is it just an annoyance?

 

I have a clicking on mine with the occasional jingle, but it's almost always a click.

 

Maybe because I have a Trail Boss.

 

I think I rather deal with the click than have those morons work on it and risk messing something up.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
