Your ABS motor has gone out. It went out on my '99 at about the same mileage as yours. Luckily I have the extended warranty, the repair is about $800.
#25 of 1497 Valve Rattle by chevydog Nov 13, 2002 (2:36 pm)
I have a 2001 1500HD 6.0 4x4 that has a valve rattle on every cold start. Is this normal and is there a remedy?

You haven't been paying attention, go here http://gmpistonslap.tripod.com/ the noise you here most likely is piston slap. Or the fuel going thru the fuel rails as Iv'e heard said before (most likely not). A bunch of us GM owners are experiencing this "knock" on cold start up, myself included. Also try scrolling down to the GM Engine Knock discussion board for more on this issue that GM will do nothing but give you lip service about. Ray T.

#27 of 1497 Thumping from left, front wheel or steering column. PLEASE HELP by slayer38 Nov 16, 2002 (10:23 pm)
Hello,   I have a question i hope someone can help me with. I bought a used 2002 chevy silverado today and while driving it through my town, i could hear a thumping sound from the left front wheel when i hit small bumps. This deep thumping seem to travel through the steering column. Is it a loose shock?? My 2001 does not do this.   two more questions: Does the 2002 have the "guards" at the top and bottom of the ignition key (like my 2001) or is it just a key hole. (I'm wondering if the ignition was replaced)   Last, isn't "keyless entry" standard on this model?? the deal said it was not But he may be full of it.   Please help. Thank you in advance.

It's hard to tell if the remote entry is standard or not since you don't mention the trim level that you bought. Base level doesn't have remote entry, LS and LT does.   There are no guards on the 2002 models.   Take the truck back to the dealer to have your intermediate steering shaft lubed. Is the truck under warranty?
#29 of 1497 Groan (possible problem?) by canayjun64 Nov 18, 2002 (8:18 am)
Hi all... I made a quick search to make sure that my post isn't another replication of a previous entry.   Here it is:   When driving on a standard city street, around 65 kilometres/hour or 40.3 miles/hour, I get (this is hard to explain) a groaning type of noise. Somewhat like a vibration or shudder. I suspect that the shifting sequence of my automatic trans is done to fast from the second gear to the third (same as a manual trans when it is shifted to fast) perhaps it's from the third to the fourth ... I’m not sure. Could this be related to a faulty modulator valve? Is this common? In order to eliminate/quiet this, I need to accelerate a bit more to activated the passing gear until I reach a higher speed then it’ s gone.   P.S. Unfortunately, I don't know the transmission model/make for my 2000 Silverado 4.8 V8.... sorry.   Thanks in advance…Canayjun64

SOunds to me like your torque converter is locking up. Mine did the same right around 39-41 mph. I had the trans reprogrammed by gm about 2 yrs ago. However I have heard the fix is no longer available.   My only suggestion when driving around town put it into 3rd. (select 3 after the D) Replies to this message: bob400 (Jan 04, 2006 2:25 pm)
