So the dealer is putting a new transmission in mine, they said it was a bad planetary gear making the squeaking/chirping noise. They said my issue is all recorded in the GM tech bulletin stuff and any

Just an update on mine....we are pulling the travel trailer on a trip and it seems like its getting louder when we cold start and I can hear it now on the highway between 1000-2000 rpms.  6,2 10 speed

Subscribing (19 6.2 HC).  I have a catch can system and it still happens.  Doubt its PVC at all.  To me it sounds like pulley or compressor.

Well, dealership just called back a few minutes ago and can't find anything wrong and can't duplicate the chirping....wonderful.  Will be looking forward to see what all comes about with your experience and if GM releases a service bulletin for it.

So, took mine into the dealer the morning of 7/22 for a noise coming out of the seat vent fans (sounded like a bad fan bearing) and the chirping noise while driving at highway speeds with a light load on the engine. Service advisor has the shop manager go for a ride along so he can hear this chirping. We’re 5 miles or so into the ride along and he informs me his ears "aren’t the best" and he could never hear it. So I was just preparing for the worst in that i’d get the truck back with the big "could not duplicate".

 

Fast forward to today and service advisor informs me the seat is fixed and they have been able to duplicate the chirp. Bad news is they don’t yet have a clue what’s causing it yet.

 

Hope to get some more info from BeardBros (Jaymz) soon as well as my dealer.

Any updates from anyone?

 

It sounds like my "squeak" is getting louder. Currently around 2600 miles. I did have a CAT back from GM installed to try and drown out the annoying squeak, but it didn't help. 

 

At least the good news is, the exhaust itself sounds awesome.

My dealer's service advisor just texted me this morning and told me they put chassis ears on my truck and found the noise to be coming from a PCV.  He referenced PIP5587 for which there isn't currently a fix. ?

 

The PIP is attached below.

So the dealer is putting a new transmission in mine, they said it was a bad planetary gear making the squeaking/chirping noise. They said my issue is all recorded in the GM tech bulletin stuff and any other dealer should have access to it. As of right now I have been waiting for a trans, GM does not have any to give up as they are all going to the assembly line and GM does not pull parts from the plants assembly lines anymore to get a warranty service job done. So I am in a loaner truck until they can get a trans. ? After I get my truck back I will ask the dealer if there is any tech bulletin # to reference if anyone else has this problem.

Thanks Jaymz.

 

Also, FWIW, I ended up emailing GM ([email protected]) & got my truck's build sheet.  Mine was built on 6/19/2019 at Plant Z (Ft. Wayne plant - based on sticker on door jamb).  Wanted to make sure I wasn't mistaking this noise for the one in the jingle jingle thread (goes away when in 4WD) .

Thank you for the update, i believe this is what mine is doing also.  I can put it in gear and hold the brake with light throttle and get the chirp to show up.  Now that it may be pin pointed I will try and see if i can track it down to the PCV.  I am curious if this  is the same noise that I have on start up that takes 30 seconds or so to quite down. I will try to attach a video.....you can hear a tension-er/belt  type noise until near the end and then it just disappears .....does this every time i start it after sitting for a couple hours and it doesn't matter if its hot or cold.

Mine does the same thing at start up after sitting - maybe longer than a couple of hours for me, but I haven't driven the truck for more than 2k miles yet.  I have no clue if the two noises are related or not.  All I know is that the dealer focused on the chirping sound while driving with light load on the engine and they had the chassis ears on the PCV pipe which led them to the PIP document I attached above.

 

I was afraid of the "no fix" situation when I took it in....seem to be pretty rampant with the past 2 generations.

 

What's ironic is that the loaner I'm driving is exhibiting the jingle jingle noise that disappears in 4WD.

I think I might have this issue. AT4 6.2lt. I have about 15k mikes. Just noticed the sound last week. I hear it best in the garage. It starts when you put it into gear. Starts whining. 

 

I tried listening while driving. I think it goes away once it’s in about 5th gear. 

 

I put the truck in manual mode. I don’t think it’s shifting into 4th. There is absolutely no change in rpm from 3rd to 4th (up or down). Likewise from 5th back to 4th.  Have to go from third to 5th to get a change in rpms. 

 

The sounds seems to be worst on cold starts but pretty much does it all the time. 

 

Supposed to drive to Bristol this weekend. Not sure if I should.

It's under warranty...drive away! If something fails it'll be easy to find the cause.

Please do as mine is doing the exact same thing with 4500k.  So annoying.....

      Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65

      Factory front brake rotors...defect?

      By Chris80s · Posted

      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.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      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 Forward and Rear Park Assist help

      By Slow · Posted

      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.
