I have an 04 Colorado automatic, Vortec engine, etc., with an annoying vibration problem. At exactly 2100 RPM, I get this noise which sounds a lot like a buzzing sound from the engine compartment. At first I thought it might be some of the plastic components vibrating. Then I thought it might be something like the transmission cooler tubes vibrating against each other. It does it in neutral, as well as on the road. I have been all over the vehicle yanking this, and banging on that', and I just can't find it. Besides being a pretty poor showing for a truck with only 2000 miles on it, has anyone else had this problem, and if so what was the cause?

Replying to: petem143 (Jan 24, 2005 5:52 pm) The new Dakota is not that much upgrade from the old. Interior is at best on par with GM's. The new sheet metal is, well less to my liking then the old. It does have the V8 option if you want a screamer pu. The Tacoma is better than the old Tacoma. Roomier and the interior is the best. Based on a crew cab w/V6 - loaded up it is going to be the most expensive. For the hwy cowboy it will probably be the choice unless it drives bad. BTW - the funniest "Pickup" is the new Honda Ridgeline. A midsize crew cab, but the bed is fiberglass. Yes, fiberglass with a "trunk" - back half of the bed lifts up exposing a decent size well. It won't do it well to haul much gravel or yard debris in the back.

Replying to: ocmike3 (Jan 29, 2005 4:49 pm) quote- Pro-Tec was 50 lbs. (23 kg) lighter than a steel bed. It didn't corrode, scratch or dent. It wasn't slippery and didn't trap water like bedliners do. But it also is a technology unfamiliar to consumers, who either are happy with considerably less-expensive bedliners or who don't care about the appearance of their nicked-up steel cargo boxes.-end The "funny" Ridgeline has- 1. A tailgate that is load rated for minimum of 300 lbs. And it opens to the side or the standard fold down. 2. Power sliding rear window that will not buffet wind when open due to special design of the roof. Nice. 3. The trunk is waterproof, has a drainplug (I'm thinking taigating and beer!) and is big enough for 3 golf bags. 4. There is additional storage available under the rear seat when folded down or it may be folded up. 5. Large center console armrest/storage that slides forward or backward. Just a few of the funny features that I would like to see on the Colorado. Funny thing is, the Ridgeline is about the same size as an Avalance in most dimensions.

I was talking to a co-worker this afternoon, and he and I both agreed the "perfect" vehicle for us would be a Colorado-based Avalanche-type vehicle; something you could use to haul the family and/or bigger stuff from Home Depot, but that was smaller/easier to maneuver (Avalanche won't fit in my garage), and got better gas mileage than the full-size Avalanche. Anyone else agree (or know if there's anything like this in the pipeline at GM)? |

Replying to: moparbad (Jan 30, 2005 9:03 pm) I'm curious about the Sierra bed. My Sierra only had side panels that were composite, but the "bed" was steel. When did Chev/GMC make the entire bed composite?
