Just so all know its the 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD 6.6 gas that we have

Since new when I use the remote start feature the truck starts just as if you were starting it from in the cab but there's a strange noise that sound right after it starts . Its really hard to explain almost a loud whrrring noise or maybe as if its traying to start again although the engine is running . Is this normal ? Have you noticed anything similar   ?

I do have to take it in for a check up so maybe I mention it then 

Thanks

My 2020 gas almost always made a ratcheting type noise that lasted for a half second a couple of seconds after start. GM blamed it on the oil pump and said it was normal.

This may be what the OP was hearing that caused his concern. The oil pump cavitation noise on a given start is the same regardless of whether the start is initiated normally or remotely, but it sounds different if you are outside the truck versus inside.

Thanks JR So maybe I have the better half start it from the inside and see if I hear the noise from the outside like I do when I start it remotely

I have taken the truck into the dealership to see what the problem might be . Well it would not make the noise after repeated remote starts . So Its only when the truck has not be driven beforehand .  So the dealership wants me to take a video of it starting from a cold start to see if they might be able to figure it out or leave it overnight and they try it in the morning

Update to this issue as I have now 2 seprate threads on it . JR has graciously offered to help me out by posting a vide of the starting of a 2024 2500 HD  6.6 Gas so I may see and hear what his truck sound like when starting

 

If any of you fellas have the same truck and would care to video a cold remote start so I can tell if it is similar to my it would be appreciated 

Thank You

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
