pmiranda,
I would recommend taking your vehicles in to the dealer to have them diagnosed. Please keep me updated on your progress.

#21 of 28 ac belt noise by sfranc

Took my 2005 Envoy to 3 different mechanics and still not fixed. Make loud whining noise and gurgling noise, it pulls the truck hard when on.. New belt and they still can't figure it out.. One of the tech said when looks at the belt in motion it hits the compressor and they say the pulleys are good.. Any suggestions?

ceichele79,
 
While I can't help with troubleshooting, we can look into your vehicle's information to check for any open recalls, or provide any details about your existing warranty coverage. Please send an email containing the last 8 digits of your VIN as well as your Edmunds username and we'll be happy to do so.
 
All the best,

Just got the truck back from the shop here is the diagnosis...It appears that the GMC Envoy has a bad rap for starters...Apparently my starter blew out in the on Position....Since the starter is connected straight to the battery the relay switch on the starter itself had shorted causing it to run 24/7 unless the battery itself was DC'd
Price of new starter...OMG $190.00
Hope someone else may find use from this post

#27 of 28 Envoy Denali-ticking noise by marifran

Jul 19, 2012 (11:56 pm)

I bought my 2006 Envoy Denali in Nov. 2005. It has everything, heated seats, leather, air compressor in the back for camping, bike tires etc., 4 wheel drive, V8 engine that will go to 4 cylinders on the hwy, everything you can think of and I paid ALOT for this car. I started to hear a ticking noise. Took it to the dealer. I was told that the right lifters were out. This is on a Friday. On Monday at 3:00 I am told that the Cam shaft is out too. This car is 6 years old and only 41,038 miles on it when I took it in. This should not happen. Luckily I paid for the extended warranty and it was covered. The warranty is up in 4 months. I had the truck less than a year and it died twice in an intersection. Had to have the starter replaced twice, the driver electric seat went out, I got a recall in the mail for the fuel sensor. This truck gets the tires rotated every 5 thousand miles and the oil changed every 3 thousand miles. It is well taken care of, this should not be happening. I think this model of a car is a complete lemon and I am sad to say that I am currently looking for another car due to all the problems this car has and is only going to get worse.

Any ticking noise on the GMC is not good, I just found out. I would take it in to make sure it's not anything with the engine like the right lifters.
