2011 Expt Limited 5.4 Diesling??
I have a 2011 Expy Limited, 5.4L. I have started noticing an I create in the frequency as to when I hear what I can best describe as rocks in a can type of noise, mostly when I reach a cruising speed or sometimes during acceleration. If I let up on the gas the noise will stop for a short time but it comes back. I use 90 octane (premium gas) also at every oil change I use a container of Lucas oil injector cleaner. I have approximately 146k miles. I use full synthetic oil as well. Could it be where we are getting our gas from or something else going on? Thanks for any advise or help.

Rocks in a can sounds like catalytic converter come apart. How does it run? If it won't open up I bet that's it.. I did have an issue with my own truck a while back where after a long pull I had a noise like that which accompanied severe engine miss. I started losing speed and downshifting until it completely went away. No noise and runs fine.. It was the first time id ever run the Lucas fuel system cleaner. I haven't used it since and haven't had an issue since. It's possible it passed a huge chunk of carbon but I don't know. Weird

Our appointment is to.orrow, here is an observation I had- When the switch is turned to 4A or 4h the noise stops and does not return. Once the switch is turned to 2H the noise starts back up. It has something to do with the front hubs. I'll keep you posted once the dealership gives a diagnosis.
