I'm not a violent man but I would have had some words for my dealer if I was told what you were told. I have no options with my bargain, off the rack, 2017 1LT A8 and I have the heavy hum/slight vibration at 1500 rpm that goes away above 2000 rpm. It stared around 400 miles on the odd and has only gotten more pronounced since then.
Can you tell us the build date of your car ? |

That sounds like the deluxe package of crap to me. You need to have that service guy awarded the most original excuse for (1) I don't know what it is and (2) I don't want to try to figure it out award. More seriously, if yours sounds like the descriptions and the video cited elsewhere in this thread, its the warble and your diff is bad and needs to be replaced. And they are replacing them. Have the service manager call the Technical Assistance Center. If he won't do it, talk to the general manager. They are not out anything but a phone call. Let us know what happens.
Sometimes if an issue is not a hard failure they make us work for it. Sigh. |
2017 Corvette Warble
I purchased a 2017 in January with a build date of 11/16. Starting hearing the noise at 1500 RPM, around 150 miles. I have read through the post and was just wondering what would be the recommended path or starting point for getting the issue resolved.

If we didn't have the Warble noise or the Torque Converter failures to talk about, we would have very little to talk about on the forum. Too bad GM will not stop us from discussing these subjects. :ack:

Warble Sound
Thanks for the advice, I will start the process
|
After listening to Strakes You Tube video and Darrin Edwards' videos I have to say the the sound I'm hearing is more like one of the Darrin Edwards' videos.
Does that qualify for this new ATF fluid TSB ? |

They are both the same sound. Try listening again. Remember the rpm is around 1500 usually in high geAr. But I can get mine to warble in 3rd gear on M using the paddles and rpm at 3000.

Well took mine in and was told that that's just a characteristic noise of the option package I have . Has anyone ever heard that excuse for the warble . I've been following this thread for a long time and at this point I don't know what direction to head on getting it fixed. I haft to call back tomorrow and talk to someone else that's supposed to have more info on the characteristic noise for the option package . lol
via certfied mail ..ask for responce within 14 buisness days...then call an attorney .. Sorry for your headache ..but .. it is a GM ...the only good thing about the answer ..is ...they did not just start ripping the car apart without knowing how to correct .. |
I have been dealing with this noise for over 6 months now. I heard it really bad on the first drive home that night I purchased it from the dealer and just kept it under the rug.
Well as I am driving the car more I am beyond annoyed at it. I will begin to pursue the matter with GM and my local dealer. I have an appointment on Tuesday evening to have the shop foreman to ride along with me to replicate the sound. I will be getting a better video tomorrow with hopefully less ambient noise in the area. Who are those that have had this problem "FIXED" May you speak up so I can notify my dealer exactly what needs to be done. Thank you |

he will probably tell you to put your seatbelt on or whatever it is to stop the dinging.
I had turned the speed warning monitor on the car before I left. I have been driving the car more learning all the things it has. I guess because I have navigation and Onstar it knows the speed limits of the roads I am on and it alerts you that you are driving over the speed limit. |

You've definitely got the warble. I was one of the first ones to get a new diff. That was over 600 miles ago and the fix is still good. I have a contact in GM who, when I talked to him last, said there were two ways to go. One was to have your service person call the Technical Service Center and/or two, there was a post awhile back from Customer Service to go through them. If it would be worthwhile, have your service guy call me and I'll talk to him and explain the whole mess to him. Mine was one of the first cars tested for the diff fix. If he wants, I'll ask my contact to call him if the Tech Assist Center or CS doesn't work out.
Highplains, Thank you a lot for the information. Can you PM your number? I do not know how competent my dealer is honestly. I had a great experience purchasing the car through them, but their service side I do not know as I haven't even had my first oil change yet. I had a software update done which was a simple fix and had no issues with them. They are a decent size Chevrolet dealership that usually stocks around 30 corvettes. So hopefully that have a tech who is familiar with these cars. |
