I have an 04 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi. I started it up Sunday and out of nowhere I have a very loud metal on metal sound. The sound is coming from the passenger side of the motor and is louder from underneath. The sound also follows RPMs and is there even when in Park or Netural.
I have not gotten any codes or check eng light from this. The eng also doesnt seem to run any different. No weird vibrations or bad idle.
I have pulled both valve covers looking for broken springs or bent push rods but I dont see anything out of place. The eng oil level is normal and I have done regular oil changes.
Truck has about 93k miles on it and up to this point has not had anything go wrong other than a busted power steering pump hose at about 60k miles. The truck is stock other than K&N air filter.
