here’s a video of the noise. The noise happens at 2 seconds and 26 seconds. In this video I was riding in the passenger side 3rd row seat and it sounded like I’d was coming from under me. It also made the noise once today while driving when it was warmed up, which was a 1st.

Exact same sound.  Interesting that yours only happens when cold.  I only notice it on mine when everything reaches operating temp.  It's pretty much going to rain all week here.  Hopefully this weekend I can get under there and do some more investigating.  I'm tempted to just remove the whole exhaust from the clamp at the y-pipe back to try and rule out the valve and the clamps.  It'll probably be stupid loud but oh well. 

 

Any tips from anyone on the best way to snake it out on jack stands without cutting anything?

I have a 18” Magnaflow ordered and will have it installed this weekend. Going to have everything from in front of the muffler back cut out and replaced, so I’ll know for sure if it’s something around there lol.

Solid - I can't wait to hear what that sounds like!

Quick update. Had the exhaust put on and it does sound extremely good, but it didn’t fix the issue. Turns out, the torque converter is shot and needs replaced. Good thing is, the transmission was just rebuilt 5,000 miles ago, so it should be under warranty. It was making the noise every time the tcc would lock and unlock.

Well that wasn't the answer I was looking for but awesome for you it's still under warranty!  I guess if that's the case, with 124k on it now should I replace just the converter or rebuild the whole transmission?  It seems to shift smoothly, but I don't know if the converter could send any metallic parts through the transmission if the clutch fails like this.

Update on my end.  Shop ran a full inspection and their best guess is I have a failure inside the 3-5-R clutch assembly as well as possible torque converter issues as well.  Tearing everything down on Monday to let me know the full extent of damage.

Ended up being a failure in the 4-5-6 drum/clutch assembly.  New converter, solenoids, techm, valve body, hd clutches and steels, pump, and a few other odds and ends were replaced.  Now the only noise she makes is the stupid chirp switching back to v8 mode, other than that super quiet.

And here she is clutches assembled, awaiting final assembly and then assembled and painted.

Damn! I’ve been searching all over trying to figure out what this noise I’m hearing is. Glad to finally find out but not looking forward to the fix! Thanks for posting about it and giving updates.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
