After the truck is warm. After the engine has been running for a minimum of 20-30 minutes and at idle not while driving.   Ryan
#33 of 1492 Ryan, the tapping by mrrogerz Jan 04, 2001 (8:12 pm)
pining clicking noise in my Silver ado is exhaust related and I've only come to this realization recently after thinking it was ping or detonation for months. Good luck. Roger

No mine isnt a ping or exhaust related   Ryan
#36 of 1492 2000 Sierra Pulls to the right by zrt7 Jan 08, 2001 (8:56 am)
I have a 2000 Sierra 1500 ext cab 4wd Z71 with now 9000mi with this problem. My buddy has the same truck that he bought a couple months before had the same problem. He brought it to the dealer, they realinged it and it still pulled to the right. The dealer had to set up the alignment so lopsided that now sometimes it pulls to the left. this problem seems to happen around 8000 miles. Has anybody else had this same problem.

My mom had that problem on her 2000 blazer back last sept (99). Had it aligned 3 times. The second time it pulled both ways. they said it was due to road curvature (crown) and wind. BS   Well after the third time about 500 miles later it didnt pull anymore. It has almost 11K on it and its fine.   It would wear you out driving that blazer it wasnt fun on long trips   Ryan

That is what they told my buddy that it is the crown in the road.. It does get tiring after long trips, but right turns are a breeze.

We took a long test drive with the service manager and he explained the crown in road theory and yes that plays a part in a pull. I dont disagree with that. He even said our pull wasnt normal. I think the last alignment was done slightly out of gm spec not sure though. Ill ask my dad when i get home tonight.   Ryan
#40 of 1492 2000 4 Door Sierra 1500 SLE by mnllehti Jan 09, 2001 (7:16 pm)
Up here in Canada, across the river from Detroit, MI, we are having some cold weather this winter. When the temperature is around freezing or below, the rear doors do not fully click shut. If either door if opened, they will not fully close until interior is heated up. Very friggin annoying, because if the rear door doesn't fully shut, I cannot fully shut the front door(s) either, being that they lock on the rear doors. Seems like it would be a safety concern if the doors aren't fully latched, plus the wind noise can drive you nuts because they are partially open. How is the dealer going to fix this kind of problem? My theory is that the cab/door metal contracts in the cold, and the cab/door latches do not line up. I can beat the hell out of the rear doors trying to shut them, but will not until the truck is warm, then they shut beautifully. Ok if I lived in California eh'
