Hey All,

I’ve noticed over the past few months my suspension / drivetrain has progressively gotten noisier. I’ve developed the notorious knock, as well as some other mystery noises.

Back in the fall, I had the service center look at the truck and inform me the sounds were normal / “in spec.” Fast forward a few months and the issues are louder and more frequent, unfortunately.

I’ve attached a short video below, and I am hoping some of you all will be able to help identify these sounds and what the (potential) remedies are.

I’ve been in contact with service, but having a better understanding of what I might be dealing with would be a tremendous help. I’m not an auto expert by any means- thanks!

This is what happened to me yesterday the nut on the steering column come loose. Make the wheel wobble and those are the sounds, noise and steering wheel vibration is what I think are signs of nuts and bolts beginning to come loose.

Thanks @Hdang, thankfully I'm not experiencing any vibration in the steering wheel. It also appears my bolts aren't loose (at least from a quick visual check).

I'm trying to hold off on service until the Cincinnati Service Center opens, but the sounds are getting close to convincing me to make the drive up to Cleveland.
