Does it have a electric unit like the vettes then ?

Not sure if it's like the vettes but yes its electric. My brake pedal feels different everytime they update it.

My 2015 5.3L slowly started making a similar ticking sound. You could hear it immediately on start up and then it would slowly go away once the vehicle warmed up (10-15 mins). Took it into the dealership and they told me lifters and cam need replacing. Its currently under warranty for another 16 months thankfully. I am worried about what the future has in store for this motor. Getting a tune with AFM delete seems to be a beneficial option moving forward. I have to do more research... Only 69,000km and I am experiencing this. I drive my truck nice and easy like an old man too!

did you listen to the whole video?. My truck sounds fine the first 20ish seconds of startup. This noise starts after the RPMS drop to normal idle. I bought the truck with 150 miles on it and its been doing it since.

2019 Custom Trail Boss 5.3 AFM  3125mi 99hrs. Same problem here, knock on cold start after high idle goes down to normal idle rpm. Not wasting time taking to dealer until there is a fix or it blows up. Very very disappointing.

I'm new to the forum here is a link to a video on google drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-F78kbKOloomcOzkAYiSG5A98tQiijCP/view?usp=sharing

Sounds identical to mine. Just like mine, the noise will fade for a while after an oil change. 

 

Are you just going to ride it out until there is a fix? I don't have much faith considering the bulletin has been out for almost a year. I don't think they plan on fixing it anytime soon.

These engines both the 6.2 and 5.3 sound like a box of rocks at idle imo, nothing new my 14 6.2 does the same thing. Personally i really don't want to allow a gm tech at a dealer to crack open my engine unless it is no doubt gone or in trouble! I will say while driving though she revs fine and sounds great in the upper rpm range.

Did you watch our videos? The loud rapping noise is what we are talking about.

Yes the random tapping noise is what you are talking about right?

 

My 14 6.2 has the same random occasional tap noise at idle.

Not to discount your concern. I’ve owned lots of small blocks. GMs seemed to be noisy. My latest of 8 years sounds like marbles rolling around in the top end. Get it serviced at your GM dealer and have them make a note of the noise each time. If it fails they should back you up.

Way different then ours. Have you watched the videos? it happens dozens of times after the RPS drop and lasts a few minutes. Its raps so loud I can hear it in my kitchen while my truck warms up. 

 

I don't think we are talking about the same noise.

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
