As listed on the Maroney sticker '19 RST came with a dealer installed option 22" low profiles separate from the factory steel wheels. First 1K, some rear wheel hop and 62-67 mph vibration, not a shake

Crap shoot.

Good luck.

I would also stay away from rims over 18 inches.

Great truck. 

Mine too after the road force balance. Must be the exhaust damper that roars on start......put a 2-3/4 to 4' extension tip on the tailpipe and it roars louder!

got my truck on Wednesday last week. Driving around town, no vibration issues but whenever going between 60-70 mph on the highway, feels like a speed strip. No sounds or anything but vibrates like a speed strip. Dealer has the truck as of yesterday and they are supposed to be putting new tires on. They think there's a hard spot on the tires. (they already re-balanced and road force balance). Not necessarily the classic shake of the silverado but just posting this in case anyone else has this issue

Had the same problem with mine... After a tire rotate and rebalance didn't work the dealer found what the issue really was.  The driveshaft had a dent!  They replaced the driveshaft at no cost since the damage came from the factory.  Hope you can find your gremlin!

Fingers crossed! I'll bring that up to them when I go for the ride along Wednesday :)

2019 Sierra SLT.  I have the vibration / resonance occurring randomly from the back 1/2 of the truck at about 65mph and 1400 rpm while going up a slight incline in 2WD.  I have the same vibration when I slowly backup up a slight incline (driveway).  The vibration will go away if given less throttle or more.  After looking underneath the truck, I suspect it is one of the two stamped metal heat shields near muffler / fuel tank.  I will be taking it in to dealership soon to demonstrate what I can do to repeat the resonance.  The vibration sound is not related to the truck performance, because this truck rides perfectly otherwise.

mine has smooth as silk....been waiting to do anything because it rides so good, cept for body roll...

 

I did have Toyota that had shake at 60mph and never got remedied.....tried everything even new rear axles, it did have bigger rims and tires so.....

PROBLEM SOLVED - The resonance / vibration sounds comes from two metal shields located between the exhaust pipes and spare tire.  In certain road and speed circumstances, they vibrate (similarly to what a tuning fork does).  GMC has not come up with a solution yet, but will reply back here when a solution is provided.

2019 Denali Ultimate with 22" wheels 600 miles is a shaker. Had in today and they road forced all the tires and it is improved but still shakes. One tire (RR) could not be brought into road force spec.  They wanted me to drive it a few days but I can already tell it is going to be a problem. Hoping they will order me a replacement tire when I call them next week. (fat chance of it magically getting better on its own LOL)

Any info would be helpful .  Bought this new 2020 3.0 liter duramax to replace my tundra vibration at 65-plus .  I do have 18” wheels with falken wild peaks on it but it has had a shake that felt like unbalanced tires even with the stock tires.  I have had to the dealership several times they have visually inspected and don’t see a problem just paid them to road balance with little change.  They put it in some test deal “pico” and that’s where they determined it was balance issue .  I just drove back home 100 miles and nearly same vibration especially while going up slight incline .  Not sure where to look for answers.  They did say they didn’t see any dents or weights missing on driveline .  I’m lost but not super excited about spending that much money for a crappy vibrating ride ..

i have a 2020 silverado , since new and i only have 3800 miles on it now, it has had this intermitting vibration , it happens between 58 and 64 mph, feels like your driving on the rumble strip , mostly does it in 6th gear, looks like i`m not the first one to notice this .

My wifes 18’ Sierra Denali had the shake and rumble at 300 miles when new. I researched the Tech service bulletins and found one regarding Trans fluid. We took back to dealer they did the flush and fill procedure and truck has been great since the flush and re-fill.

Turns out they got a bad batch of trans fluid.. I was skeptical but it actually fixed it.

Don’t wait get it flushed before the trans grenades.

There is a tech service bulletin on this.. get the trans fluid flush / fill procedure done.

      2010 Avalanche 5.3 not running correctly after engine swap.

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      If everything checks out at the MAF, then the MAF is BAD, new or not.   You don't need a signal generator to troubleshoot this. PCM needs ALL powers and ALL grounds able to light a halogen headlight bulb - if it can light the bulb bright, then the wiring is good enough to run the PCM.   Best thing you can do for yourself is spend some time here: scannerdanner.com - Check out all his YouTube videos on similar issues. If you decide to subscribe it's the best bang-for-buck ratio in the automotive world, hands-down. He's got TONS of free vids on YouTube, too.

      Yes, I used my multimeter to probe all of the wires at the MAF, both with the sensor connected, sensor disconnected, key on engine off, key on engine running, etc etc etc. I probed all of the wires again at the PCM, at the connectors, etc. All voltages are what they should be according to the service manual/wiring diagrams. All grounds are good, less than 20 millivolts from the battery negative under load. Both at the connector of the MAF, at the PCM connector etc.      I know this throws a pretty big wrench into things, but this truck was acting up before the swap. I don't have very much information, if any on what was causing it, but if you cleared all of the dtcs it would do the same thing where it would crank, fire, then die. And it would do the same thing a dozen or so times, and eventually it would start and run, but the difference is that it would run and actually be drivable. Whereas now if you can drive it at all, it goes into reduced power mode almost immediately, and even then it's not running correctly. When you come to a stop at a light it stumbles down to for 500 RPM before catching itself and returning to the smooth idle. And if you go more than about 50% throttle then it immediately goes back to doing the misfire thing.    Like I said, I know that throws a wrench into things, and unfortunately I was not able to pull any data or anything like that before I did this work, so I don't have much to go on.    I'm trying to not fixate on one particular thing as the cause of the problem, but it seems like all avenues are pointing me towards the PCM. Like I said I have tested the wiring extensively (see above), and during cranking the sensor does produce seemingly legitimate values at least according to my multimeter, but as soon as the engine fires those values quickly descend into gibberish. I've tried it with multiple different known working sensors, I have done literally every test I can think of multiple times on the wiring (probing the signals, probing the pins with the sensors unplugged, probing the pins at the PCM, voltage drop, voltage drop under load, continuity, ohms, and double-checking everything against the wiring diagrams/ proper values in the service data.)    Another thing that pushes me towards a possible PCM failure is, I have noticed in troubleshooting a little bit taking a break and coming back, that when I leave the truck to sit for a while and cool off, it starts and runs smoothly when I first start it up. However once it warms up. It starts having problems. For example, when I went out to the truck this morning after it had been sitting overnight, I was actually able to drive it down the block. And then once I got on the throttle a Little bit after going about a thousand ft, it started misfiring again. I pulled it back into the driveway, shut it down, and started it back up. It idled smoothly. As soon as I touched the throttle it did the misfire thing again. From then on as soon as I started it it would misfire. I shut the truck off and went to go get a coffee and do a bit more research. When I came back out I started the truck up and it immediately went into the smooth idle. After a couple of minutes of playing around with it, it would not idle smoothly anymore. Let it sit a couple of hours, rinse and repeat. This makes me think with temperature change something is going wrong inside the PCM. I have the PCM out of the 2007 donor vehicle and I'm thinking of getting a one-day subscription to the ACDelco programming service to try and program that and see if it helps.   Like I said, I'm really trying to not fixate myself on one potential cause, but it seems everything is pointing me towards PCM failure. I would really like to try to confirm that, but unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope or a signal generator to do the GM service procedure where you feed 5 khz into the signal pin.

      Ahh, sorry about that - I got some bad info. Newdude is correct. That's what I get for working 13 hours straight ... on my "vacation", lol.   Should've checked the files I had instead of the internet.   Anyway ... this is GREAT news, since this would've been an absolute friggin nightmare to get working.   I don't think the lack of VVT is causing this - you've got another issue. Wiring, I'm betting.   I'm telling you right now, your computer isn't bad. If it worked before the swap, it's working now. You need to do some more (better) diagnostics and figure out exactly what you're missing. Did you test every wire directly at the MAF? Have 5V reference? Ground? If you're reading ZERO g/s, your Hz isn't much use - it's going to be the wrong value anyway. The MAF is not working, and you need to find out WHY.   I got this off the net, so VERIFY first: Pin A: Black (BLK) wire, Circuit 552, serves as the Sensor Return (Ground).  Pin B: Tan (TAN) wire, Circuit 472, carries the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) signal.  Pin C: Yellow (YEL) wire, Circuit 492, is the primary MAF Sensor Signal output to the PCM. Pin D: Pink (PNK) wire, Circuit 339 or 539, provides Ignition 1 Voltage (Power).  Pin E: Tan/Black wire, Circuit 552 or similar, often associated with the Intake Air Temperature ground or signal return.  Global-A list: https://postimg.cc/KKJnQC85

      Correct....the end user can't reach to Realtruck directly like they can if they purchase a Bak, Undercover, etc...  It has to go through a dealer.
