This is a new one on me - I have the HD E4OD 4X4 trans w/transgo kit.
I installed the shift kit quite awhile ago 5 months or so . I removed my rear cats two weeks ago and I just gutted my forward cats yesterday, now I'm getting a loud clicking noise coming from the solenoid in the trans. I thought(hoping) it was the exhaust , but it's not , it's coming from inside the trans right where the solenoid is , in that corner.
Anyone experience this one before ? How does gutting my cats effect the trans in any way ? I rebooted the comp and now I have a PO401 code , I'm not worried about that , I know what thats all about, what I don't understand is this loud clicking all the sudden..
Ive had leaks that sounded like a metal against metal sound. They can be very small. I would look at the exhaust system at night and look for leaks. Cant think of any other reason you'd get that..
Yeah , the exhaust is leaking in two spots and now the clicking noise sounds like its inside the exhaust - but not at the leaks . I could swear it was the trans before - Its leaking where it clamps to the Y - old pipe , wish I had the bucks to replace all - need a welder too darnit - these clamps aren't gettin it , they frickin break to easily , new ones and there 3/8 clamps!!
I thought the front cats where clogged up - that's why I gutted them - now I have more problems .
I'll see if I can get them clamps tighter , I replaced the DPFE , that got rid of my check engine light .
The trucks way to loud - even with a 24" Maggy in the back
Ill order two Magnaflow cats tonight - hopfully that will smooth her out a bit.
Thanx for pointing out the exhaust , I had thought everthing fit together well - not good enough as it turns out..
What a nightmare now - cleaned the threads on the flange bolts , best I could put a little heat to em and they still freakin busted off - now what - you ever try drilling one of those out - It just aint happenning , this stinks.
Well , I'll try making a new hole next to em. I'm not even going to attempt to remove the manifolds..
I needed the damn truck this morning too , what a biaattccchhh!!!
