They just replaced the seal and they stated they drove it. I drove 1 mile after picking up the truck and now the transfer case sounds like rocks in a coke can. They are trying to state it was already about to go or probably was. Now, I have to fight with the other warranty company I bought just in case GM decided to not cover stuff which they didn't and see if they want to cover a new transfer case now that whatever is going on is even worse than just a leak that was happening before an no noises

Tater86 - Were you able to get the leak resolved the third go around and if so, what was the solution?  I just bought a 2024 and at 600 miles I noticed a fluid leak.  Took it in and they replaced the "transmission extension seal".  After an additional 200 miles I'm once again noticing drips coming from the weep holes between the transmission and transfer case.

Not yet, I took it to a new dealer to have them determine the issue and during the first appointment they show it is still the same thing, input shaft seal on the transfer case. They had to wait for the seal to come in and I'm taking it in this coming Monday. While they have it apart they are going to fully inspect the shaft and transfer case. This dealer said there is no way after 3 replacements it should be still leaking so they think something else is going on that the other dealer missed. So I'll keep you posted after it gets repaired this time.

Finally got my transfer case seal issue corrected! The issue with the first dealer was they only replaced the seal and didn't use the correct tool to install it.

2024 Silverado 2500 HD Duramax diesel noticed two leak spots in my driveway this morning went underneath. It looks like the front transfer case and the rear case are both leaking. I’ve had this truck only a month first issue was it pulled and vibrated like crazy they had to replace the tires. Talking brand new tires from the factory were bad at least one of was. I know it’s off-topic but my 2023 Corvette leaks oil and the transmission slipping not particularly fond of Chevrolet right now.

Did you have Michelin tires? I had to have two of mine replaced under warranty to coming from the factory bad.

They've been having problems with the seals between the transmission and t-case since the 2020s came out.  Its a stupid design seal setup they went to.  Seems to only be affecting the 10 speed trucks.  

 

Here's the PI on the leak situation - MC-10239150-9999.pdf (nhtsa.gov)

 

Here's the PI they have on the seal on the T-case side and how as of 2022 they are engineering a special tool for installing the seal to the proper depth.  MC-10201286-9999.pdf (nhtsa.gov)

 

Both seals on either end have to be installed at a certain depth point on both components.  I wouldn't be shocked if its a misalignment issue going on during component assembly so transmission or T-case, or they are having an alignment issue during powertrain assembly so when the t-case is being mated to the transmission as they want to make sure the bolt sequence is followed when installing the t-case.

Hi guys i have the same issue with the front output shaft leaking.  Not the transfer to transmission seals no leak there.  3000miles started to weap. Had the front output seal replace,  1000miles later leaking again.  Mech said its the spline seal. Wants to replace the whole transfer case but this will probably cause more issues because doesn't the mechanic need to set these seals in perfectly?? Has anyone got the schematics for the internals of the transfer case?? Maybe numbered with gm parts numbers. Just so i can see this spline seal??

 

Can this spline seal be replaced without the transfer being removed?? 

 

Thanking you in advance 

 

Have a great day

No need for the dealer to replace the case.  The service department should follow the TSB and make sure they get the part in correctly.  Its a 2 piece seal (and inner and outer half) that just mate together.  Some have gotten only one half of the seal in the bag which is incorrect, it needs to be 2 pieces.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
