just got the 24 z back from my dealer who has been great to work with. The tech did the tsb and comparing videos of the tick before and after, there isnt much, if any, difference. The left side is still noisy vs the sewing machine typical noise on the right side. The pico scope showed noise like the tab identified pre the tab attempted repair. Going to ask the dealer to put pico scope back on and send results to gm and see if there is another action to take or just hold.

dealer did pico scope after performing tsb because left side was ticking. Dealer sent results to GM who said do the TSB again. Hope they can fix second attempt.

At this point I would request your dealer send a field engineer to perform this procedure with the local tech. Argue your case - this is the second time/attempt and you want someone from GM engineering present. The dealership has to make the request.
