hope you can locate a dealer that knows the difference between a Volt and a Vette

Suggest you scope out a section of road near the next dealer that is conducive for the car to warble, good smooth road with a slight incline that allows you to feather the accelerator to get best result and when you take the dealership for a ride you know what the outcome will be. Gotta be persistant, don't give up, that is what GM wants. Good luck

Terry, what dealership did you take your car to??

I think I saw a post where a member took his car into a dealer near Orlando who knew about the warble and fixed it.

Maybe someone who had their warble fixed here in Florida could recommend a dealership that knows about this problem...good luck.

Terry, go back and look at page 78 post 1543 by " ryoder ".

He took his car into a dealer in Tampa that diagnosed his problem and fixed the car. Suggest you send him a PM and get the name of the dealer and some info from him.....that maybe something.

A frined in N.C. contacted me yesterday, he had the warble (2016) and GM replaced his car with a 2017. His Text Message said, GUESS WHAT. I knew exactly what the rest of the message was. He had 6,500 miles on his new 17 and the Warble is there. His dealer is ordering him a new dif, hopefully the new improved. Still hard to belive they are still using the old defective dif. Hope U guys are ready for spring as I am.

Had a corvette mech go for a ride with me friday, he heard the wabble noise. Suppose to get a call to send a gm person to come down and see what he can do. Im looking into a lemon law soon let you folks know what happens

Hang in there, if they get your diff corrected you will enjoy the car a lot more. My GS has been flawless so far after GM bought my 16 warbler back. Give the eng. all the info you can from this post and hopefully it will lead him to do the correct thing, new improved diff. Happy Easter to all.

I have the same car as you. Heard that damn noise the night I got the car. Changing out the diff was an instant fix. Haven't heard it since. I sincerely doubt, from my own experience and reading this forum about others, that you will get rid of the warble until they get you a new diff. If they don't, I'd definitely go the legal route. The car has 12000 miles including a 1600 mile road trip last year and it's coming-up on a 3500 mile road trip in a month all without a pause.

Before they bought my 16 back I was in a 17 A8 loaner for a day - Warbled.

Had my car in this week for this issue. Here's my fix based on the repair order.

C/S: "Warble" noise from rear end at staying at 1,500 rpm when going up slight incline.
CAUSE: Torque Tube Pinch Bolt loose. Found noise coming from driveline support assy. Replaced torque tube pinch bolt per Doc 17-NA-311.
3080248 Replace the propeller shaft hub clamp
1 12560341 (bolt)
