Need help!!!

I don't know what is wrong with my truck but I've been hearing this weird noise. It sounds like it is coming from the exhaust. It sound like a deep sounded whoosh or something like that. It's just kind of weird. Does anybody know what is happening with it. I only have a filter on my truck. Any help appreciated

it sounds like your boost bypass needs adjustment, or you have a loose vacuum line that allows the egr to open prematurely....just a guess.

If the sound comes from the rear area, possibly a loose muffler clamp or a cracked exhaust/ muffler.. another guess

Actually if what you are referring to is sort of a "farting" noise, most L's will do that stock. It's because the shifting pattern of the transmission some cylinders are just pumping air. Mine did it once or twice shifting at full throttle. It sounds funny but it's normal.
