Just had mine replaced about a month ago. They have redesigned the intermediate shaft and are no longer doing the "lube" fix. They'll do it free. I haven't had any problems since. Give your dealer a call....
Thanks for the info guys..Ill give me dealer a call see what they say..Like i said they have replaced 3 shafts so far....
Its a poor design. I had mine worked on but it came back..... its one of the very few complaints I have about the truck.
Had our 2005 Suburban done about 3 months ago. Hasn't came back yet!
Like others have said. GM redesigned the intermediate shaft. The new one has like a teflon sleeve around it. I had mine replaced. If they replace it and the clunk is still there then they need to repalce the lower column bearing as well and that will fix it for good.

My buddy has had the same problem with his 2500. He has replaced the shaft 3 times. He took it in yesterday and one of the service guys mentioned the problem has to do with the Lower Steering Column Bearing Part # 88963617 and not the shaft. He got it back last night and it is fixed. Less than 2 hours to have it fixed.

is this an under warranty or recall type item?
