Sense the thread from over a year ago is back to life... Ill update
I no longer live at home so Im not here as much. The white smoke is still happening occasionally, mainly in the summer when its warm out.. Dealer has not done a damn thing about it.
The valve train tick went away for a while, but is now back worse than ever. It sounds like a sowing machine. It is going back to the dealer again.
Truck now has 18 thousand miles on it.
All maintenance is done at the dealer and there have been a few other things the truck has been in the shop for.
Im still not sure I am a fan... Oh and the transmission seems to shift differently each time I drive it. Some times hard and some times soft and at a rpm and speed that does not make sense.
I have the same combo w/19,600 mi, haven't noticed any of the things you described. However, I have a 2 chamber Flowmaster with a dual side exit in front of the back tire and have a 5Star X3 with some nice tunes so all is well Hope they fix your Pops truck though, keep us posted!
