My 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 seems like the transmission or something is binding, then releasing at slow speeds, especially when turning left or right. Wheelbearings are new. Any ideas?

Asked by mattsdadallen Dec 10, 2011 at 10:25 PM about the 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LS Extended Cab RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Changed the wheel bearings and hub assy but it is still doing it. It is 4WD and front transfer case has fluid. It is not nearly as noticeable at higher speeds.

Maintenance & Repair
Evening: I currently have a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 5.3 engine with 113,000 on the clock. Truck has never been abused and runs fine. Question At full operating temp it developed what sounds like a miss or maybe a exhaust leak last year. Local dealer said it was the belt slapping and the belt was changed but this was not the problem now that temps are getting warmer its a bit louder than last year. Its only noticible under load and easier to hear in the cab than under the hood. Seems to me its on the passenger side. All manifold bolt heads are there and I see no sign of leaks in the exhaust system. Any ideas or does anyone know of something I am over looking? Thanks 1 Answer

Why does my 2001 Cheve Silverado 5.3 L make a knocking sound when started cold and then go away after it runs a minute or if it is driven a minute. The sound seems to come from the bottom of the motor or the tranny area and has been there since i bought the vehicle. It doesn't seem to be getting worse and someone suggested piston slap as the problem. Any ideas ? 4 Answers

The fluids are good and the tranny is rebuilt too.
