And my 2 cents... this is the same ole issue that everyone experiences sooner or later. On my 06' (100k miles, 4x4, Lance 825 Camper on back, my own custom air bags on rear, RS 9000 shocks, Hellwig rear sway bar, and spring snubers, steering brace) I have replaced the steering with the newer...

Cerberusiam To save me some time to crawl under and investigate. . can you remove the inspection cover and tighten up the flex plate bolts or do you have to pull the trans? Thanks

You replied in the balljoint section after my reply to the balljoint saga... I am from Nor Cal also... did you ever decide on ball joints yet? BTW, where do you live?

another person sitting on the fence post I am also sitting on the fence post, actually the barb part of the wire waiting to satify myself on info provided here... for what it's worth, I am also waiting to purchase upper and lower ball joints from someone. This thread is very benifical to me in...

intake heater delete, now code sets I installed a intake heater delete on my 06' and I was wondering why the intake heater circuit code now is set after my 33 ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor install. The Resistor install was to fool the PCM that a load exists in the intake heater circuit since I removed...

Yes, Please send me info, hints pictures, I want to build my own filter system, that would be a great idea and project to help clean up my black oil... Thanks, Pete

CKelley1... I have a similiar problem (06' 92,000 miles), rattle getting louder under slight load. Also changed the FAC and pressure sensor, and also took it to the dealer to drive (engine still under factory warranty)... no changes, when changed the FAC and sensor. Dealer said sounded normal...

What a JOKE the smog test is. Here is my . 02 cents, took my 06' Dodge Diesel to the local Smog Test and it was the first Diesel test for the smog tech... I was standing over his shoulder the whole time and all they do is answer the questions asked via the state PC and check the check engine...

Good point... I was going to adjust the valves, but then decided to call the dealer where I bought the truck from. They said they would do a flow test on the injectors and if there are some injectors bad they will replace them under the 100k engine warranty.

update Well today Todd from T & C Diesel Performance was kind enough to spend some time with me over the phone and discuss the clatter problem. He sent me a loaner Fuel Control Activator and a Pressure sensor to make sure either one of those were the culprite and to my dismay after replacing...

Hello Ckelly1, You have always given me good advice on my 06' CTD and I need it again. I am on the road in Florida from CA and I noticed throughout the full rpm range that that I am experiencing clatter or rattle. I do not experience it at WOT. I have run Power Service additive in the tank...

CKelly1... I wanted to through this concern to you since you are familiar with the 06' CTD trucks! I have posted this on TDR but wanted your opionon if you have a moment. I am on a trip from CA to Florida and experiencing more "clatter" from the engine over the full RPM range. At WOT I don't...

FYI, I have the smarty Jr. and it is set at level 2 for towing and while driving - I adjusted the Power on Demand from 99 to 40 and it did not make any difference...

Jim, I did not know that about the screen in front of radiator, I will remove it and see what happens, thanks... another note - the clatter is throughout the full rpm range...

more info Thanks for the comments... Some more info - I started noticeing this in the early part of my trip, thats why I am thinking fuel issue (carbon build up). I have run about 10 tanks through now and no change even after running Power Service fuel additive. I am slightly loaded with a 2500...
