Rear slider replaced

Well I took my truck in for the dreaded leaking brakelight and also mentioned a rattle the I have in the back of my truck. It has always been there and I believed that it could be the power sliding window. The dealer checked it out and is replacing the window for me today. Hopefully that takes care of the annoying rattle. If not, they'll get it back.

Has anyone else had to have the rear power slider replaced for this?

I also had them check my injectors while they were at it. I have 32k and warranty runs out at 36k. Does anyone have any suggestions for anything else that I should have them check?

mine was an incessant squeak on every move, bump your truck takes- if you opened or closed the window (if it was open) in the slightest bit it would stop for 15-20 mins, and you would have to adjust again

Mine squeaked all of the time, any little bump. After two trips to the dealer, they pulled my rear window the reinstalled it. I guess the body flex against the window was making the squeak. It was horrible but now it is completely quiet and I love it. Makes the driving experience feel alot more solid.

Does anyone know where I can print the TSB for the lost and confused at the dealership? I know Alldata but I don't have a subscription and I don't want one.

BigBlack, you might wanna tell them to go ahead a flush your injectors while its there if you tell them to check them they'll prolly just look at em and put em back in. My truck ran perfect till I hit 35K then my injectors started messing up and sticking open, good thing I bought extended warranty!

oh wow so that is that is what is wrong with my truck. I thought the sliding window was leaking but it is the brake light as i'm reading here is that correct? Second I also have that horrible squeak when the window is open i was checking the leaf springs and so on so it is the window itself.
