2020 -1500 Silverado. Anyone else getting a wind noise around the review mirror/windshield area, once you hit about 40mph? Sounds like the window is cracked, but at that location.. ...annoying.  Dealership said they tested another truck and said it has the same noise. They think it’s coming from the antenna on top, but no repairs yet.

I notice slight wind noise from rear spoiler over 65 mph, but nothing out of ordinary from front. I have driven my 19 then 20 and probably 12 service loaners never noticed any noise from front rearvi

I talked to a gm person on live chat about this vehicle making me feel dizzy, ringing in my ears, and hard to focus on the road while driving it. I think it's a combination of the constant wind noise

I remember reading that someone had their OnStar antenna was lose according to the dealership (discovered when replacing the headliner from leaking rear window I believe). That could be what this is from?

If it is a bad seal try covering seams up with some blue painters tape and see if noise goes away

I don’t believe so. The antenna is over the driver side. The noise I’m hearing is right about the review mirror area. Almost seems like it’s the way the wind is deflecting off the hood and hitting the windshield. I’ve never heard it that area before on any vehicles I’ve driven. I’ll see if I can take a good video and post it.

Yes I just noticed this yesterday, not just bc I was driving 40 mph, but was driving while its was a little windy, not really sure what was causing this but definitely annoying.

Mine is constant. Wind or not.  Does yours sound like a window is cracked, but its coming from the windshield/review mirror area?

I will have to try that. But I don't think its a bad seal, as nothing leaks.

I have a wind noise in my truck coming from the passenger side rear door area. I have a hearing issue and cannot discriminate noise/sounds well. I actually had a girl that waited for me ride with me for about 10 miles and help me find the noise and make sure I wasn’t crazy(because the dealership told me they couldn’t hear it at all). Mine started after the dealership did the first window leak caulk job and performed the seatbelt tensioner recall. Now I have a noise that would drive me crazy if I actually had access to my truck to drive it(see the window leak thread for more details-44 days no without my truck).

No the other day sounded like howling wind in an old house.

Try turning on and off the recirculation for the climate control. Mine has a wind noise that I can make go away with the climate control settings

Mine is constant as well we think coming from the Front part of the rear passenger window. If I ever get my truck back Ill get my ultrasonic leak detector and find it that way.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
