I bought this super expensive 2023 1500 sierra and i'm having this high frequency vibrations at low speeds. only for me i experience it between 50 - 100 kph. I have taken it back to the dealership 4 times and the following is what they told me. 

- that its normal - AFM / DFM in the engine is whats causing it.  (how can it be normal, when there so many of us here complaining about the same thing)

-that its not producing a code to troubleshoot the problem. 

-they cannot find anyting wrong with it. 

 

i am a first time GMC sierra 1500 owner. Got the vehicle in 2023. was looking forward to it for a long time. this vibration experience on the vehicle with no resolution in site shattered my respect for GMC. All the response from GMC i see here is "Sorry this happened. Give us your VIN # and dealership and we ll investigate further" one year later and they have not come up with a solution. this is humiliating and a disgrace. now i am stuck with this expensive uncomfortable hunk of metal. 

 

What engine do you have? Ten speed transmission?

It is more likely you are feeling cylinder deactivation than a trans problem.

My 2023 2500 Silverado Diesel is sitting on a rack at my Chevy dealer for who knows how long due to a shift valve body that they can't tell me when they will ever see one. I'm outraged with GM! I see

Well it happened again.... As stated above, I dropped my truck off at the service dept. last Saturday, June 15th. I got a call Monday, June 24th that they repaired two wires that had shorts and u

Just purchased a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 Ultimate Denali. At around 500 miles on the odometer, I starting to feel a shudder from the drive train. I initially thought it might be a lost a wheel weight/balance issue at first but when it starts to shudder while driving, I put the transmission in neutral and shuddering stops. Put the transmission back in Drive and shudder resumes. It reminds me of a similar issue with my 2017 Sierra 1500 Denali with the 8 speed that only required a tranny flush to fix. Let see what GMC does with this brand new truck transmission issue...

2023 GM Sierra - Valve was replaced and on the test drive the transmission went.  GM has asked the dealership to completely take apart my transmission.  I am on 3.5 weeks without my truck!! Yes everything is being covered under warranty but I hope I will get more compensation than that.  They don't know when I will be getting my truck back.

Welcome to the forum. You stated "Valve was replaced". What valve was replaced?

I was told the transmission valve.  Latest from the dealer is GM is asking them to disassemble my transmission to find out the problem.

Transmission valve really doesn't tell us anything. Maybe they will give you some info after they take your tranny apart.

We have a 2023 GMC Sierra 2500HD with 31000 miles that we purchased brand new off lot in 2023. My husband was pulling his boat 3 weeks ago when the truck went into limp mode. Our truck has now been at local dealership needing a transmission valve body. The valve body is on back order and we have no idea when we will receive. A transmission has been ordered as well but it also has no projected arrival date. In the meantime we are without a truck. GM refuses to provide enough rental allowance for a truck to haul what we need to haul. Does anyone know if there is a class action lawsuit for this model and if so how do we apply? This is infruating and GM does not seem to care. All they want to do is keep rolling out these think of chunks and charging an outrageous price for them.

I have a 2021 Silverado High Country with the 6.2 and 10 speed transmission.  Feels like driving over rumble strips at low rpm(1,000-1,500).  Truck has 52,000 miles on it.

 

Took it to my local dealer and they said there was no problem and I was likely feeling the Dynamic Fuel Management.

 

2 weeks later it spun a main bearing and had to be towed to a different dealer and ended up needing a new engine.  The service manager at that dealer told me the fix for the "rumble strip" feeling is to drain and flush the transmission, replace filter, fill with fresh fluid, and re program the transmission.  He said he sees it all the time and it costs $800.  

 

My question is why would it cost $800 to fix the issue when the truck is still under the power train warranty?

Hey there.. I purchased a brand new 2023 silverado last January. I noticed within 1 month there was something wrong with my truck. It started with hesitation in the engine, that eventually led to ticking in the engine, and my transmission had a shutter when going through the gears. When driving on the highway over 100, you could really feel the shutter in the truck. 

8 months and 24,000km later, I was told the tourqe converter failed, the transmission fluid was extremely burnt, and the transmission had metal shavings in it. They replaced the tourqe converter and the transmission, all lifters were replaced and a cylinder head was replaced. I have had the truck back 1 week and it still runs like ******. The new transmission is doing the same thing, and I still have hesitation in the engine. The truck is returning to the dealership next week for a third time.

When driving over 100 mph?

I think for this 1500 you can try the nextgen drivetrain DIY valve body kit.

Hi All, 

The last time I posted here was on Sept 6th 2024. It was about the vibrations issues on my 2023 1500 denali. Long story short, the dealership i bought it from never even acknowledged that there is a problem and said that the vibration is normal for these engines. 

 

Summary, 

- Sept 2023 - Bought the truck from 

- Oct 2023 - Approached the dealership- about the vibration issue among several others such as the screeching noise while rolling up the windows, passenger small upper gove box not opening etc. 

-Then I kept going back to the dealership about the vibration issue over several months- they said its not bringing up an alarm code and so they cannot find the problem and that its normal for this engine. 

-Oct 2024 - I gave up on the dealership and ended up taking it up with Chevy delearship. 

-Oct 2024 - Valve body was replaced - drove it for few weeks - truck still vibrates. Booked another service appointment. 

-Early Nov 2024 - Torque converter was replaced. - drove it for few weeks - truck still vibrates. Booked another service appointment. 

- Late Nov 2024 - whole Transmission was replaced - drove it for few weeks - still vibrates and worse that it vibrates even in park mode. Informed Chevy techs.  

-Dec 2024- GM tech informs Chevy tech - that vibration for my truck is normal because it has DYNAMIC FUEL MANAGEMENT (RPO CODE L84).

 

After all that work done on my truck and a year later, they came to the same conclusion as the first dealership did. Where does this leave me as the consumer/ end user.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By KARNUT · Posted

      It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.

      It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.
