    Grinding noise while idle

    Thanks for all the help, it was a heat shield making the noise. It was a large metal side attached to either the oil pan or transfer case, not really sure. It was located on the passenger side just past the front wheel. A 3/4 inch bolt tightening later and all good! Look for the shield just past...

    I took a better video that you can hear the noise. Listen when I accelerate. It happens about 1000rpm. It will happen while in park also if I hit the accelerator to 1000rpm. I might just need to take it in to get looked at....

    Its hard to hear in the video but it happens right after I start accelerating. Around 1000rpm.

    Grinding noise while idle

    So one thing I noticed was that the grinding noise only happens right around 1000rpm. I tested in drive, neutral, and park and can duplicate in all drive states. I recorded the serpentine pully and didn't notice it moving. Very frustrating to pin-point. No engine error code btw.

    Grinding noise while idle

    I recently started to hear a metal grinding noise from what I thought was one of the front wheels on my 2008 z71 Tahoe. I first heard the noise while turning at slow speeds so I thought it might be something with the front wheel, but every once in a while I will hear the same noise while idling...
