I had my front diff replaced and after about 1000km the noise is back. I am so unbelievably frustrated. I don't know what to do next.

When did you have the work done for differential replacement??  Just wondering if they used new engineered parts for the fix or the old fix which does nothing.

Posted

They replaced the differential about 3 weeks ago. Apparently it was the newly engineered version but it appears that's not the case. I still have an open case with GM Canada. I'll be calling them next week and requesting a new truck.

Good to know I have the same issue but all the dealer ever tells me is they are waiting for parts. I have an open case with GM currently.

Been two months. Still waiting on GM to finalize my lemon case. Taking way longer than this process should.

GM sucks!  They just wait and play games hoping that you’ll get impatient enough to settle for whatever bread crumb they give you.

This is my second lemon in two years. If I wouldn’t loose so much equity in the truck I would go with a different brand.

I hear ya with that. I came from a lemon ford only to have a lemon Chevy. I decided to take cash settlement and keep the truck. Will probably trade it in in a year or two. I do like the Chevy better than the ford but I should have never bought the first year. I’ll give it a couple years to work it out

Had my truck in at the dealer today. They were told to replace the stub shaft again. It was replaced already last year and I just had a complete diff replaced. Of course there are no parts available and they don't have any kind of ETA as to when they might be. I will be calling GM daily until I am offered a buyback. It's been a year with this same noise, I am beyond fed up.

So I called the dealer and they told me the parts are in to fix the cv axle noise.  I asked what parts where they planning to replace exactly ( I know what needs replacing), the service advisor said there was a bunch of parts in a tote that have not been unpacked yet so he did not know.  I am not confident the new parts will fix it considering what I read on this forum but I guess they have to give it a try.   Does anyone have any suggestions when I get to the dealer what specifics I should ask them?  Should they be replacing the stub shaft also?  Will they drain the old diff fluid out and replace or does this not need to happen?  Any info is appreciated.

Question for the thread... are the GMC Sierras having this issue as well? I would think so but I don’t recall seeing anyone with a GMC in this thread with this issue. Could be wrong

Posted

I have a 2019 GMC Sierra Elevation edition and I had this issue.  They replaced parts yesterday so I am waiting to see if it is really fixed or if it will show back up in a few hundred miles. I guess it is wait and see.

Sun runner. Please keep us updated. They are trying to fix mine, but I am completely fed up. Holding out for the moment.

Several dealerships are refusing to take them in on trade here, one toyota dealership is out of tundras here and lot full of gms. Dump it whichever way you can.

So took my truck in today for the differential noise. Received a call saying gm will not even allow them to order the parts for the repair. Does this sound correct to anyone?

    • On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.
    • 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!
    • 2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.  
    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
