I see numerous posts on noise issues when accelerating and the engine is warm, but they usually end up veering into a different direction where there’s a vibratory rattle from a heat shield or something that’s at fault. My issue seems to definitely be ping and/or very minor piston slap, it does not sound like a vibratory rattle from two components contacting each other.
What’s confounding though is that it’s always been present from day 1 and it does not throw any error codes. Oil looks good. Sounds like a subtle but classic timing related ping.
With no ability to modify the timing on these trucks, has anyone found faulty knock sensors or something like that on their trucks?
