My 22 ram has this issue when I traded it in for a 25 Sierra. Not too happy to hear this is an issue with these trucks as well. I also have leaf spring popping from the cheap plastic pads between each leaf. I've put a bandaid on that for now by putting rubber tire patches between each leaf.
I retightened the ubolts and put some grease in the front pads and it's still there. My truck has 150 miles. Also the ads on this forum are out of control. Can't believe people participate in it. I've seen scam sites with less ads. I had to get rid of 15 ads just to type this.
If you don't have any exhaust leaks and you're using good fuel it's most likely the cats. Aftermarket cats are a lot cheaper for a reason. I currently have my y-pipe sitting on the floor of my barn, just replaced it for a kooks off-road y-pipe. I'd be willing to part with it for a few hundred plus the cost of shipping.

I've seen a lot of people with the denalis having this issue, not so much with the 5.3s. Not sure how much different the 2 are. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
You didn't mention if the injectors fixed the issue or not. I had the same issue on mine and replaced all the injectors on that bank and the problem hasn't come back. It's not it common for the lifters on 3 and 5 to fail as they are not it afm lifters. If the problem is still there I would start by swapping plugs then coils to see if the problem follows the plug or coil. If so replace said part. If not you'll need someone to dig in deeper and see if it's a mechanical failure. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
As far as I know you have to get the part number off the injector. Have you tried calling the dealer with the VIN? That would be the only other way I could think of. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
I'm not sure you can find a non full synthetic 0w20 oil. At least in my experience. I work at a repair facility and we always use full synthetic for the 0w20 oil changes. I'm guessing it's becuase most of the cars that take 0w20 require a full synthetic oil. Our trucks require dexos approved oil which as far as I know is full synthetic. I'm no lubrication expert this is just my experience. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
Wheels appear to be oem maybe dealer swapped, as in didn't come on the truck, but upgraded from the dealer. The dots look like some sort of aftermarket running lights. The truck is definitely leveled, maybe too much. Main issues with the drive train are slight vibrations and potential lifter failure. I had one go out on my 15 at 67k, thankfully under warranty.

I used Napa fleet pads and their reactive one slotted rotors. They work great, obviously more dust with a metalic pad. The reactive one rotors have slots in them. Used them on my 04 and they made a world of difference. Not as much of an improvement on my 15, because the brakes are better from the factory. The best part is they're locally available and easy to warranty. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
I love the power e85 provides, but it definitely hurts the mpgs. Usually run e85 most of the time then run a tank or 2 of premium every once in a while. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
Recently replaced diff fluids, Trans fluid and pan, tcase fluid all with amsoil. New headlights and taillights. Just ordered my Kooks long tubes w/ off-road y-pipe, afe CAI and 6.2l intake manifold and throttle body. Talking to lew about an updated tune. Also replaced my leaking Trans cooler lines. A while back I replaced pads and rotors front and rear along with rear calipers and I needed a rf lower ball joint. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
So I'm getting ready to order kooks long tubes, off road y-pipe, potentially a cai and the 6.2 intake and t/b. I work at a repair facility and get a deal on dealer parts. Is it worth the extra $200 for the ported t/b? Also 1 7/8 or 3/4 long tubes on a n/a engine. Cost isn't much different, but I don't want to have any adverse effects going too big.

I have a carven cat back and it sounds amazing. Minimal drone and I get compliments on it all the time. It's also in your price range. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk
