foxySS Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 I got my SS about two weeks ago and I'm not quite sure if the rest of you have a similar problem or not? When I go over bumps I feel a clunking through the steering wheel column and even through the pedals on occasion. Sometimes you can hear it too. Does anyone else ever have this occur?

misterp Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 search the past postings for discussions on defective Silverado intermediate steering shaft. Short summary - warranty repair, take to any dealer and it will be replaced. And welcome to the forum Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PewterC3 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 usually the first time they just lube it...second time they replace it with the new design shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R96IMP Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 NO its not NORMAL....its an unfortonate lack of fixing a design error in production,even though since mid 01 it has been a frequent concern of C/K truck/SUV owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadstar Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 usually the first time they just lube it...second time they replace it with the new design shaft I was told today by the owner of my local dealership that even if they replace the intermediate steering shaft it will just develop the same noise again within 15,000 miles. He states that regular greasing is required, and he thinks GM should just put a grease fitting on the shaft since it has to be done all the time. Anyone have any feedback on this?? Sound like to me.
