engine rattle sound
Hi guys, I will do my best to descibe the situation. Engine is a 5.2 and as 274000Km on it and I only own the truck since december so I don't know the history of the truck. I get that ratteling sound when I drive at low RPM and I should be in a lower gear. If I try to accelerate in that situation I hear the ratteling coming from the engine. I was thinking if that could be the rockers adjustment or is it just a bad driving habit?

If it sounds like a can of marbles it might be the intake plenum gasket. You can diagnosis this easier by following this link: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...um-thread.html

It makes a whole lot of sense now. Truck pretty much have all the symptoms describe in the post. I will check the Cat first but I am pretty sure it's the plenum now. I am not worried about fixing it and being time consuming since I am on leave until november lol.
Thanks buddy.

PCV looks fine, seems to move freely enough, I have P0138 as a code and that puzzle me a bit. I am going to have another look inside the plenum since I got myself a nice little mirror but it didn't look like the pictures in or the videos I have seen so far. Mostly silver with some spekle have oil, should it but perfectly clean?
