Good morning all,

Question here for the group - as the title says, I have a 2014 2500 Cummins paired with the 68RFE trans and the 3.42 rear end gears. I started noticing this summer that with the windows down I can hear an unusual noise when decelerating over 25-30mph or so; even more audible when driving alongside concrete barriers. Without sounding too much like a CarTalk caller, the noise is a tinny rattle/chatter starting immediately after releasing the accelerator, lasts about a second or two, goes quiet, then starts again. This repeats about 2 or 3 times before the noise stops. Could this be a torque convertor noise trying to unlock after being loaded and locked?

Thanks for any input, with a truck this expensive I try and stay on top of anything that seems out of the ordinary at the first opportunity (and while the truck is still under warranty)

Torque converter was my first thought too. Any performance mods to the truck?

Hey McBroom, I will try and figure out how to move the thread over, unless deleting this one and recreating is the best way to do it.

I only said that because there’s more traffic there.
No disrespect intended.
I wasn’t meaning to sound rude either.
