Knock on startup/5.9 magnum

Not necessarily. The PCM only cares if the cat is working or not, and is pretty lackadaisical about what it considers 'working'....... It could be totally plugged up, and the PCM would still be perfectly happy with it.

In years past, bad lifters can also cause the "knocking" problem on start up. These are hydraulic lifters designed for maintenance free usage, but...they can and do fail. Also, are you using a good quality oil filter? Cheapo brand filters without check valves to trap oil in the filter for startup can let the oil drain from the filter causing a temporary reprime that'll cause something like this as well.

just at a point of narrowing this issue down so i have an idea. Mostly hearing people say its a rod bearing. The startup is pretty loud then goes away but can hear it alittle bit around 3 grand
