f250 2011 making a ticking or knocking noise
So I have had my truck four about 2 months and every once in awhile my truck will make this ticking knocking noise. It seems to happen when I am in low RPMS and sometimes going up a small hill. Has anyone heard of this.
Thanks in advanced.

Are we talking about more than the normal diesel sound? I was actually was surprised how little noise the diesel makes. Occasionally it will remind me that she is a diesel and make a clanking sound that I have heard on older diesels.

My truck was also making some strange noises; after I tightened this fitting, viola! no more noises from the exhaust.

Hard to describe.
I would at least crawl under the truck and take a look. If the fitting is loose, you will see some soot on the pipe and nut.
On my truck, the fitting was completely loose; I was noticing some diesel like clatter at low speed and light throttle, but muted and certainly not loud.

I just changed my oil and now I have this ticking sound. It is sure annoying and frustrating. From what I see on here, there is nothing that can be done. I don't want to waste my time with the warranty dept. unless there is a fix. It seems that they say everything is normal and that if my truck would blow up it would be normal.
I took it in for the turbo stalling when I drive at slower speeds and they say that is normal. They would not do this flash update deal.
Any help would be appreciated on the ticking. I don't think I will last 30K miles on a trucking that has a ticking sound to the engine, it is a diesel, but it sounds sick with this tick. To note, it can only be heard idling for me.

I have 17,500 and the ticking doesn't last near as long and isn't as loud anymore.
Sure it still happens because I hear sounds like that very clearly but shows signs of eventually being a non-issue.
Once you guys get higher up in the milage, maybe it will be less or clear up.
I've tried to record it awhile back after the first change but my video camera mic can't detect that sound.
If your engine blew up and there was no CEL, that's still normal.
....just had to throw that in there!

My truck started doing this after the first oil change. After 28,000 miles I can say that I rarely hear it anymore, but when I do it is at idle or very low RPM. I did not get it checked out, as it has been a non-issue for me so far.
