oh no....TSB-0171-16 Driveline vibration

How bad is everyone vibrations ?

 

Mine isn't terrible, but i have certainly felt it. If the road is a little rough, it sort of goes away because of the bumps.

 

Yes,yes,yes. That's exactly how mine feels

 

I think mine vibrates a little too
When exactly does yours vibrates (speed, how long etc ?)

 

Mine is pretty much just like the tsb. On deceleration, between 20 and 10mph.

 

The rumble strip vibes while stopping feels exactly like it does if you hit those rumble strips they put on highways to warn you of an upcoming redlight/stop sign. I guess its less harsh--but it can certainly be pretty bad.

I've gotten used to it--im sorry to say. I also have very minor vibrations in the 2100-2300rpm range. Others seem to have that much worse. Is this TSB supposed to address that vibration as well? I dont want to make either of my issues worse TBH.

My biggest problems/irritations are the diff howl and some brake buzzing. If I go in for this and they make it worse I dont even know what I would do. Drive it off a bridge?

 

Hey I'm up here in Vegas too, NW side. Centennial sucks as well but I have a good service manager.

 

Have them lube the slip joint. They have done that for me each time I take it in and that seems to help quite a bit. When I first bought the truck it slammed so hard I was sure I got rear-ended a few times.

 

Yea, so when I read through it I was bummed, but the more I read it sounds like it could apply to OR models...

Anyone with an OR get this done successfully?

 

The dealer is looking at a few things for me now and I just called to have them address this. I'll see what they say.

 

That's a little far, about 2 hours from me

 

I had my 5k service done today, and had them check for the vibration. They did feel it and have ordered the steering damper part, but all angles were in spec, so no leaf springs. They also did the trans tsb. I didn't really notice any change on the way home. I will see what tomorrow brings.
Found a new scratch in the door, they said they will address it when I go back for the parts install.

 

I'm having the tsb performed today on my 16 dc sport. Hope it resolves the issue, it drives me crazy.

 

They had to do - both leaf packs, steering wheel dampener & both
brake drums for my shudder/vibes to stop.

 

They're only doing the leafs and dampener...

 

Same thing they did for me initially. When I picked it up and pulled out
I though WTF, it's still there! Called them up, asked did your tech even bother
to test drive it? He said yeah, I said, get a new tech he's useless and I'm on
my way back now. Took the master tech out for a drive, took 2 minutes and
he said, we can go back now, that's really bad, can't believe they gave it to you
like that. Next day new drums were put on and smooth as silk now when braking.

 

Arrived at the dealership and found out the parts have not arrived and they didn't bother to call and let me know. SMH.

 

I've got a '16 DCSB 6MT and I had the vibration but it has gone away after much driving. Bought in April and now have just shy of 15xxx miles on mine.

 

lol, sounds about right! I called my dealer @ 2pm when they said it would be ready and got,
oh! I was just about to call you, when the tech checked the box, some of the parts were missing and
of course my reply was, how in the hell are you just finding this out when the 4 hr. job should have
been completed by now? Why the hell did you ask for it @ 7am?!?! Bottom line - dealers suck

 

Oh the service industry. No took my 09 in to the body shop, owned and run by my local yota dealership, and what was a 2 hour job, lost my truck and took 2 whole days to complete. It was a bumper and one taillight replacement.
