I have a 2023 Silverado 1500 with the 2.7L turbo engine.  I'm at about 15,000 miles.  When I remote start my vehicle and let it heat up I notice an exhaust smell when I get into the cab.  When I start driving the smell does seem to go away unless I sit a stop light when I can smell it faintly again (not all the time but most of the time).  I also smell the exhaust when I put the truck in reverse.  

 

I also have a dash rattle on the drivers side.  This happens when I'm driving a cruising speeds and try to speed up.  

 

I have had the truck to the dealer, and of course they found nothing wrong and can't replicate the smell in the cab (which is hard to believe because I smell it every time).  This is very frustrating because the truck is so new that I don't feel like I should smell exhaust in the cab and have to deal with rattles on the dash.  Any options that I can do on my own?

my 2020 with the 2.7 started doing it this winter, only smell it when i remote start the truck. i pressure tested the exhaust and sprayed it with soapy water and found no leaks. i now leave it recirculation mode and that helps. i am at 95k miles

That a bummer to hear.. I definitely notice this the most when remote starting in the winter.  I will try the recirculation mode and see if that helps.  

 

Do you have any issues in the summer?

    • I was the GM of a Lincoln Mercury dealership back in the 80's. The service lot was always full with "broken" ones. Plenty of transmissions, power windows and a/c repairs. The only one I'd consider owning would be the Marauder at this point and it certainly wouldn't be a daily driver.  My 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate is my "Lincoln Town Car" in my retirement. I want all the "stuff". Big infotainment screens, one touch power windows, Supercruise (I won't buy another vehicle without it), hands free pretty much everything. I'm going to swap my current truck for a 2027 Yukon Denali Ultimate so I can have the air suspension and surround vision recording along with all the other "stuff". 
    • Yep mine is on backorder also.
    • The Denali Ultimate's grille is tinted, but the "regular' Denali has a bright chrome grille like the current models.
    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
