So just got home from picking up my truck... I gave them the TSB and they said i had the correct pads on. They kept telling me the squeaking and humming is normal and they can't do anything because 1. I'm over the 7500 miles to do the TSB and 2. I have the correct pads... The supervisor said he has a 2500 that does the same and he just lives with it..... i have never had a vehicle that does this and it be normal.... I even showed the service advisor my video and she said that is pretty loud.. UGH...


Does it go away after the brakes warm up?

Found it, a little google always helps. Thanks all. When I called to ask them if it was covered under warranty she said bring it in and lets see. I mentioned I found the TSB on it, so it should be cov

there is a TSB for this issue. Apparently the early build trucks have an improper spec'd pad. they replace pads at all 4 wheels

No. It’s intermittent also. It happens the most when coming to a stop at low speeds <10mph and it always happens in a drive thru.

I picked my truck up this afternoon.

I have a copy of the TSB that I will upload tomorrow with pictures of the pads.

So far no squeaking...

As per KuiMonster’s post, my problems were intermittent but they never made noise when I was stopping from a speed more than 35 miles an hour or if I applied the brakes firmly.

They replaced my truck’s brakes because since we bought it in Sept 2019 (It’s a 2020 2500HD), it has squealed coming to stops. Well now it sounds like a DUMP TRUCK when coming to a stop. I took it back in and they said sorry, no fix no change so just live with it now.

The new pads are not squeaking for me.

I have put about 600 miles on them so far.

A lot of the miles have been towing and I apply more pressure to stop (the noise seemed to be worse with slow easy stops for me).

Where's the copy of the TSB? I'm sure plenty of us here could use that info.

Less than 3000 miles on the truck, and mine are getting noisy now.  Build date on my truck is 8/2020 though.  Wonder if the tsb has been extended for newer builds?  Also now have a faint whine sound that sounds like a power steering issue.

I’m at ~18,000 miles - anybody know if they limit the miles for the TSB?

It’s 7,500 miles the dealer told me. But if my pads were the wrong ones they would change it even tho I had 9,500 miles. Good luck. My dealer sucks. 2* for a reason.

Hi,

I looked up my invoice.

The new pad part numbers are:

84702753 (S) Pad Kit
84571661 (S) Pad Kit

I have a long gravel driveway and my brakes will still squeal for the first stop or two but it’s much better than previously.

It sounds as though every dealer is "handling" this differently.  Mine tried to say a TSB doesn't mean that it's covered, only that they are going to get bum-rushed with the issue.  I called BS on that!  The next excuse was the wear parts only carry a 12 month/12,000 mile warranty and if it's not a recall, the warranty language kicks in.  I just decided to pull the "loyalty" card on them and mention the 3 GMC Sierras, and 2 Cadillacs that we have purchased there and that I will just take my business elsewhere from here on out.  Long-story-short, the service manager "pulled some strings" with the factory and they covered it.  I have new pads on all four corners, rotors where not glazed, and only time will tell.

Had the pads replaced per the TSB this morning - DRW with 8,100 miles, but I reported the issue a few weeks back. My dealer service adviser team is great, though, and they always take care of me.

 

Question: My break pad monitor now just shows "----" for the front, and still at 96% for the rear.  I tried to reset in the DIC, but it would not do anything. I only have 15 miles on them from dealer to home.  Will this correct itself with some miles, or did they not do something right? Per the manual and the DIC, it has a menu where you can tell it "replaced front pads" and/or "replaced rear pads." Mine doesn't do anything when I press the thumb wheel.

check to see if they plugged the sensor back in. It is only on the driver side

My truck makes a squecking noise when driving - not even when applying the brakes.  I tried for months to pinpoint where it is coming from but I cannot tell when in truck.  Could it be this issue?  It drives me freaking crazy.

Nailed it. Plug was on, but not snapped all the way. Oddly, the truck still will not let me reset the sensors in the DIC - still at 96% as they were when I brought it in. Not a big deal, but annoying nonetheless.

      287,500 Mile Service   8/13/2026   Reset Fuel Trims   Since the work done in the previous post there was a good improvement in response in all areas except right after a fill up where the LTFT would go -20%+ for about four miles while the STFT was near neutral. Before the work they both went very negative for a few miles after a fill up but act normal thereafter.    We did a systems check of the vapor recovery system for functionality and ability to hold a vacuum. That checked out fine. But this doesn't mean the charcoal canister is dead in the water. Testing that is next up. For now the reset of the fuel trims.    I intentionally shorted the fill exactly two gallons to eliminate any chance of filling the canister. On start up the trims were behaving normally until I got up and rolling where the LTFT went -10 / -11%% but the short was + 2 to 0%. Within a mile the the STFT offset the LTFT and by 2 miles they were neutral. HUGE improvement but still not hunky-dory.    I'll watch them for a few days. Perhaps another tank where I will fill completely to 'first click' and compare. Meanwhile on the hunt for a new canister and I'll toss another purge value at it for good measure. Pending the outcome of the canister test that is. Progress of any kind is welcome.    Fuel economy improvement with bringing hole #3 back to the living was a noticeable bump to the positive. Even on the few miles I drove after the refill I already see another bump up by the trims reset.     She's purring like a kitten with a warm bowl of milk.    BTW, adding 50 rpm to the idle took the majority of the negative timing out on cold start up and leaned the cold idle. No longer burbles in the cat. What a dumb way to heat a cat.

      Yeah, shame I can’t really get that filter easily anymore. Running a PureOne. Your fave!    TAN would be neat to see. Confirmation I ran it too long probably. 🤣

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By superdave160 · Posted

      My son and I both bought new trucks in 2017. Both of us immediately put Truck Covers USA American Roll Covers on our trucks. My son still has his truck and it never sees the inside of a garage. We live in Alabama, so not much snow. My truck was my daily driver and was in the garage when I wasn't driving it or at work. No issues with either cover even after almost 9 years. About a year ago I sold my truck to my brother and bought a 2025 Silverado 2500. The second thing that I put on that truck was a new Truck Covers USA cover. They are very well made and have a very positive locking system. I looked at a Retrax and my concern was the way that the cover locked to the rail. BTW, the first thing I put on the new truck was step bars. Those new trucks are high!

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      The Allison 10 speed torque converter doesn't "lock up" like the previous transmissions. It has 4 operational modes; open, slip, transition from open to slip; transition from slip to open. I have an Edge CTS3 monitor and I monitor transmission torque converter slip. Step on the gas and you get a little slip. Take your foot off the gas and you get a little negative slip. I have not found a way to display the torque converter mode beyond that. My Edge CTS3 also displays something that our trucks should already display, the current gear. I also monitor throttle body position and engine load. If I see the engine load getting too high, I'll manually drop a gear.

      Nice result. Your filter is working well  I'd have like to have seen the acid number for this sample. Curious type that I am.
