We study the average shifted convolution sum B(H,N):= (1)/(H) ∑h ∼ H ∑n ∼ N Aπ1(n) Aπ2(n+h), where Aπi(n) denotes the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke--Maass cusp form πi for SL(di,ℤ) with di≥ 4, i=1,2. We establish a nontrivial power-saving bound of B(H,N) for the range of the shift H≥ N1-(4)/(d1+d2)+ε for any ε>0. For the cases d1 = d2 + 1 and d1 = d2, our result extends a result that can be derived from a theorem of Friedlander and Iwaniec. In particular, when d1 = d2, we reach the critical threshold H≥ N1-2/d+ε such that any further improvement in this range yields a subconvexity bound for the corresponding standard L-function in the t-aspect.
