Need Some Help With 2004 Sierra 1500 (squeaking Noise)

The squeaking started a couple of days ago. It seems like the first time I move my truck for the day I get a metal on metal squeak. It squeaks in reverse and drive. My road is probably 200 yards long by the time I get to the end of the road its gone. I am not sure if it is the breaks, but I don't think it is. My front and rear brakes are new. Just looking to see if anyone knows what else it could be. I did a search and found that it could be a bearing, slip yoke, or a universal Joint. Let me know what you guys think.

Is it speed related?

It does go away if I speed up, But it only does it if the truck sits for a long period of time or in the morning when I leave for work.

So if you were to speed up, have it go away, then slow down again, the squeaking would reappear?

 

And just so you know, I have no clue what this could be. Just trying to collect information.

Possible leaf spring squeak?

 

That's kinda what I thought at first since I have the same noise, but he said it goes away if he speeds up. Wouldn't a leaf spring squeak get worst if you sped up and all other factors, i.e. road conditions, remained the same?

Yeah my brakes do that

they like set/hang up when they set for like a week or 2 and they make a squeeking and a metal on metal noise and it goes away by the time i hit the brakes twice once getting out of my yard and once in the street before i leave and then it doesnt make the noise anymore. I also have new brakes all around.

I also have new brakes all around. I put some wagner ceramic pads on. Today it only did it when I left this morning.

Yeah I though about that too... But he also said that its gone when he gets to the end of his road... I didn't know exactly what he meant by "his road". A lot of people have dirt roads and stuff like that. I dunno, I figured I'd take a stab at it as I have the same problem :thumbs: .

I have the same wagner ceramic pads. I dont know what rotors the local shop ordered them for me and just handed them to me. They are a real nice black hub and lok nice to the eye.

I think that is just a problem with ceramic pads. IIRC they make noise when they are cold, but after they warm up they are fine. I could be wrong, but I do know that there is some kind of brake where that happens. :thumbs:

I think I have narrowed it down to the front right side. If I have tomorrow I will take the wheel off and check out what's going on.

      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.
