Took 05 Silverado 1500 to dealer for a noise in steering (clunking sound) when it was still under warranty. Dealer re-packed the steering shaft. A couple of months later and after warranty the clunking sound came back. Wish I had know to settle for a new intermediate steering shaft from the get go after further research .
