Rumbling/Vibrating

[Kevo91]

I've had issues with my truck rumbling and vibrating when I idle between 30 and 40 mph. As soon I step on the gas it goes away. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the AFM or what. I can't find a straight answer for the problem, anything would be helpful

Yes, If you are in V4 mode while coasting or very light throttle, sometimes it can make that light noise/vibration. Mine also does it, but only in very specific situations. Like you said, once you apply throttle, it goes away. Its trying to run in too high of a gear with not enough engine rpm's. If it bothers you that much, you could just put it in M when you're driving around town.

The V4 mode is a joke , I can feel it shift back and forth and yes it does make a rumble type vibration , I keep it in manual as long as I can around town I am wanting to get a tuner to stop the v-4 mode

That's unfortunate that it bothers you. It is near seamless in my truck. Only rarely do I even notice it, usually in the situation the OP described. 99% of the time I wouldn't know its in V4 if I don't look at the DIC. Maybe you could have a dealer look at yours.

Do you pull trailers? that intensifies the condition and yes I know there's a trailer mode for that but only use it in hilly spots or when pulling very heavy loads

I do, but only 3,000 lbs and under. I can't say i notice much difference in the v4 mode while pulling. Obviously it enters V4 less frequently though. I also have 3.42 gears. If you have 3.08, I bet that would make a difference.

 

Do you have a 2011? Isn't that a bit different than the 14+ models? I never drove a GMT900 so I can't compare that version of the AFM to mine.
