How many of you DO NOT experience buffetting and vibration problem?

I have no issues with mine. 2015 LS 4wd. Early, early Feb 2014 Build. Just turned 21,000 miles. I had no issues with stock 18" Fuel Max tires and swapped to Bridgestone Revo 2 tires about 15K miles ago and no issues with those tires. I am very very very picky with any noises and can detect the faintest of driveline noise. I am curious what the noise is like. Is this issue present on any LS or SLE models?

I don't seem to have it either but have just had it now for about 800 miles. Bought it used with 19k and it is a March '14 build. Have the AFM turned off, corsa exhaust and 35" tires which may help from what I have read.

Cheers,

I have a 2015 Yukon XL Denali, May 2015 build with OEM 22" wheels. I had absolutely no vibration problems until I changed my stock tires in Jan '16 to 22" Blizzaks. I have my own tire changer & wheel balancer. I didn't have the wheel balancer set to the most precise balancing when I made the change for the winter. The first drive after the tire change, the vibration was mostly unbearable around 73MPH. Anything below and it was fine. About 2 weeks later, I more carefully balanced the tires with the most precise setting for my machine. After the re-balance, the vibration would only occur above 76MPH and it was nowhere near as severe. Over the last couple months, the salt/road grime made the vibration severe again at around 72MPH. I just thoroughly cleaned the whole vehicle on Saturday and it went back to only a minor vibration above 75/76. I just took it to the dealer for the scheduled maintenance and had them balance the tires yesterday, and now there is absolutely no vibration at any speed. I have close to 24,000 miles on the Denali.

I find it interesting so many people say they have no issues. Does that mean no BOOMING over low speed bumps/road imperctions? Vibration and buffetting are major and I agree, not all have it. Mine has a highway speed slight vibration due to the crappy Continental tires. However, every one I drove had the BOOMING at low speeds. Just wondering if others notice that.

The only reason I have vibration at low speeds is because of the Nitto Trail Grappler MT's on mine. At higher speeds, smooth with the Mag Ride Susp.....

I haven't noticed booming in any of them that I've driven or driven in...the other stuff, absolutely. But not the booming. Not sure why...
