OMG he brought his Dak to a Chevy dealer! It still runs? Still sounds like
pinging to me though I don't know what a growl would be unless that's the
fan kicking in.

I am so upset! I have taken my truck back to the dealer THREE times for the
same problem, and they STILL don't know what is wrong with it! It's still
the same problem, marble in a glass jar noise at 30-35mph. It went from the
brake pad moving in the caliper, to the idler pulley being bad, to the
transfer case. Now it's we don't know what is making that noise. The
dealership isn't a Dodge dealership, it's a Chevrolet dealership. But you'd
think that Mr. Goodwrench could find ANY problem, and fix it. ;-)
Are there any mechanics on this listserv who could lend a fellow Dak owner
a hand? The noise is a metallic rattle, and occurs when the truck is at the
speeds of 30-35mph. It changes to a growling noise at higher speeds. Maybe
it stops at higher speeds and the growling noise is a new noise, but know
one seems to be able to nail it down.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
