Did they follow the directions to the T? Did they do the crankshaft relearn procedure? Ask them to do that one more time, I've seen where someone in here said the first time they did it it didn't fix it. 2nd time they did the relearn it fixed it

Thank you.  I’m bring it back next week.  If all else fails I’ll have them try this.

so I had the ECM updated on mine while in for an oil change last week and it has totally solved my issue.

I was very clear about them making sure they did the ECM flash and the crank relearn.

Interesting.  Mine goes in next Tuesday now.  I’m going back to the dealer I bought it from this time.  The dealers by me are kind of crappy.  I’ll be sure to tell them to try this.  Thank you for the info.

A 2 degree rear axle shim solved all of my “shudder” issues and she’s as smooth as butter again.  

 

I ordered steel shims from WFO concepts and had the dealer throw them in.  
 

That GM 2” lift that I had installed ended up throwing off my driveline angles just enough to give me a weird vibration.  

 

So happy it’s figured out and fixed.  I love this truck again.  I hope this information can help someone having similar characteristics with their truck.  Thank you all.

So I finally found a dealer that doesn’t play the “can not duplicate issue” game.  Anyone looking for a decent service department at a dealer in northern Illinois check out Napleton GMC in Crystal Lake.

I use to live in Highland Park and work in Lake Zurich.  Crystal Lake is a bit of a hike outside of Chicago.  Sometimes good places are worth the trip.

Who did the lift installation?

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
