Ok guys I'm about 3 weeks into my 2015i Escalade Premium Short and love everything about it EXCEPT drone/hum that I hear at 70+ MPH! I don't have the vibration that other posts are referring to my is just a feeling of pressure in the cabin and the drone/humming sound from what I imagine are the drive-train components? Is anyone else having this? After reading the posts over at GM Trucks forum it sounds like its the hum from the gears both front and back. Can anyone confirm this? It isn't in the sound system, its isn't the tires or "road noise". It doesn't matter what type of road I'm riding on but as I approach 70 miles per hour it gradually starts getting louder and between 70-80mph its really bad. Once you reach 80+ the "pitch" gets high enough that it isn't as bad but is still there.
I do hear it also when taking off from a standing start until the gearbox reaches 3rd gear if I'm kinda "getting on it". To me it does sound like the "whine" the gears make but my 2009 didn't do this so what gives on the 2015? Any feedback from others hearing this and has anything fixed it yet?
I left my Ranger Rover for this and I'd really like it to work out since everything else about the truck is stellar but since I'm using this as a family hauler for vacations I'll be driving highway speeds most of the time with this and its driving me crazy!
