2005 Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4 auto.
Noticed a noise from the front end about 2 months ago AFTER SPENDING 9 WEEKS IN LOCAL DEALER GARAGE TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT AND REAR RING AND PINIONS, SEALS, DRIVE SHAFTS, UPPER/LOWER BALL JOINTS, U-JOINTS AND AXLE SHAFTS AND........... Never mind.....past that now.
The noise seems to come only when the truck is "hot" highway driven only. Stop at light or sign, turn the wheel and slowly accelerate and there is a slight grinding noise as if it were a bearing or???? but only when turning, left or right does not matter, once above 10 mph it goes away. Does not happen when leaving a stop going straight. HATE to take back to dealer if there is a fix I can do.
Anyone experience similar issues?
Thanks!

I am having the same issue with my 04 2500 4x4 quad cab long bed, the dealer could not figure it out, they said they will start just changing parts at my expense! Let me know what you figure out, and ill do the same
Dealer said the transfer case is binding.....the front pinion seal is leaking again so i will be taking it to the dealer today, will let you know what they find out!
My old 01 ram did that occasionally. It was my U-Joint. It more did the pop and snap thing though. It could also be the wheel hub. Jack up the front end and check the wheel play and movement.

Mine did the same thing but the front and rear tires were at slight ly different wear heights. New tires and the problem dissappeared.
