2001 Chevy Silverado 1500

Unread post by danny123 » Sat Mar 02, 2013 10:35 am

Just got it up and running not to long ago, and I turned the heat on because it is cold outside and it just makes this loud viberating noise? I dont know much about cars, but I work on my own all the time and learn new things. So if anyone could help me out I would appreciate it. Thanks.

If the noise is happening when you turn on the blower, it's probably a bad blower motor.

Hi my name is Matt, I have a 2000 Chevy silverado 1500 I got this truck about 4 months ago, my problem is when I take off everything is good up until 20 mph (note: even at low speeds my rpm's are really high) now the main problem is when I try to accelerate over 35-45 mph instead of accelerating, my rpm's just go up and the truck revs up, usually I'm hitting 3,000 rpm's at 45-50 mph and 3,000 - 4,500 rpm's at 50-65 rpm's, also sometimes when the trucks revs up instead of accelerating well after that happens I usually have to let the rpm's go down to one and floor it just to make it catch and accelerate and then I let off and roll until I have to do it again, also I have had it hooked up and a code for the evap system showed up, and some electrical code but never a transmission code. PLEASE HELP it's hard to explain cause I know very little about trucks.

There are different things that you might be feeling. Could be a bad plug or spark, wire or coil missing. Could be a loss of signal from the crank sensor.

If you could scan it to see if there are any codes stored or freeze frame information you could look at to give you a clue. What would really be helpful is if you could drive your truck with a scanner on it and see what happens when it acts up. Saving the movie graph of what happens when it acts up you would be able to go back and see what changed when the vehicle acted up.
