2012 Chevy Silverado Z71
on the way to work I rolled my back window down to get some air..truck started vibrating to the point I was about to pull over and check
only noticeable if the either back window is down (tried it with both)
windows up = seems to ride normally
been 2 years since tires - Michelin XT's
thanks for any insight

if I roll down a back window only mine makes a horrible noise. has something to do with the aerodynamics.

I've had times when the wind buffeted the truck when I rolled down 1 back window. If you open the opposite front window it should stop. Try opening the 2 opposite windows about 1/4 of the way down and see if that resolves the issue.

Yeah, mine too. It is kind of an air thumping noise. I have to open up sliding beer can window on the rear of the cab to make the noise lessen.

Buffetting with a single window down does weird things.
How many miles does it have?
How long since suspension components were replaced?
Does it do it with both back windows down?

Might try turning the bass down on your thumper.

Wind buffeting. It’s in the owners manual.

Every vehicle I`ve ever owned makes a vibrating noise when the back windows only are rolled down. Nothing new here.

put some of the window top covers on, I can run 75 with front passenger about 2" down and back slider open with almost no noise and mine has never done anything like what you describe. https://www.autozone.com/vent-visor...e-side-window-deflector-92438/336720_0_0

Does it do it with both back windows down? 140k miles will check today if it's with both I just could not believe how hard it shook..I could see the truck shaking..then window up no shaking thanks all for the comments!

Weird, the back window on my Chevy Silverado slides.
May you be treated the way you treat other people, today and everyday!
