2019 Sierra 1500 Transmission Ticking

Hi all:

 

Been a while as I've had a relatively decent run without incident. Recently started hearing a ticking sound by the front driver side wheel well in my 2019 Sierra 1500 (6.2L with 10 speed). Took it in to my dealer and they isolated to the transmission but don't have a transmission specialist on staff right now. So taking it to another dealer Thursday. Anyone else run into this with their trucks? Doesn't do it on cold starts, just when at normal temps. 

 

I had an engine replacement at 6k miles (27k now) due to the oil cooler line issue; had the whole brake failure issue a couple of years ago as well. Starting to think I need to cut bait on this truck.

Getting the GM run around. One dealer confirms they hear it, but don't have the staff to handle the repair. The second dealer at first claimed its normal operation, so I had to go out and drive the truck to normal operating temperature for them so they could hear it. Sounds to me like the flywheel or perhaps the starter tapping the flywheel. Hearing again they don't have the staff to do the job. So going to a third GM dealer now. What a pain in the ass.

Finally have a diagnosis. The stator shaft support assembly needs to be replaced. Parts on order, hoping to be in next week. No loaners available so currently without a vehicle.

Got it back yesterday. Driving normally post repair, but took it to a Ford dealership for trade in evaluation. I've been a GM guy for years, but this experience has put me off. With the engine replacement, brakes and now transmission this truck has been in for service for over 4 months of my experience. All within 27k miles. I've ordered an F250 platinum with a 7.3L gas engine. Done with this thing.

I'm beyond frustrated... not home a week and the "fix" is leaking transmission fluid on my driveway. Can't get the dealer that did the repair to return my calls either. spacer.png

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.

      It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
