I have a 2012 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3 gas engine with 100,000 miles on it . A year after buying it new it started a clicking noise that came from underneath the passenger side of the truck when it is cold. I took it back to the dealer while still under warranty to get it diagnosed and fixed. They kept it overnight so they could start it cold and hear it. I went back and the technician and shop manager told me it was an emission valve clicking that sends gas fumes to the charcoal canister. I said replace it. But they told me the new one would do the same thing. Now I’m very tired of hearing it and I want to fix it. What is the best route for this?

Well, why not replace that part and see if it actually does fix it?

 

How can we diag the problem through a keyboard? The dealership may or may not have told you the truth when they tried to figure out the problem. If the new part makes the exact same noise, then they were right and you will have to live it.
