Consumer Description

I OWN A 2000 5.3 VORTEX V8 IN MY CHEVROLET AND THE ENGINE MAKES HORRIBLE NOISE WHEN ITS COLD, REFERRED TO AS SLAPPING OF THE PISTON SLEEVE. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS IF ANYTHING. SEEMS LIKE AN ON GOING PROBLEM FOR MANY GM OWNERS AND SOMETHING THAT IS ONLY RESOLVED ONCE A BIG STINK IS MADE OF IT BEFORE ANY POSSIBLE ACTION IS DONE. I REALLY LOVE MY TRUCK BUT, THIS IN CONJUNTION WITH THE NOISE I GET IN COLD WEATHER GOING OVER SPEED BUMPS OR UNLEVELED SURFACES IN THE SHOCK OR THE FRAME. I HAD ALL KINDS OF PARTS REPLACED AND IT STILL COMES BACK IN COLD WEATHER, ALONG WITH THE KNOCKING NOISE ON COLD STARTS. ANY ADVISE OUT THERE FOR A RESOLUTION? THANKS NHALL. *AK
