from experience - dont tune this motor. It's a liability.
I found out the hard way with the accessport. The motor popped untuned at 40k miles and then again when tuned at 49k miles. Its on the edge as it is...
mine smoked like that....new short block at 40k miles.....still smokes with the new short block. Put a tune on it and fixed it after the block swap.
Im pretty over this truck TBH. Ive owned a shit load of cars. New and used. This one has given me the most problems. I can understand small...
50k miles
New short block at 40k
Loads of electronic bugs in infotainment system
going in next week for new front axles and CV's and hubs. They grenaded themselves at 80mph.
Needless to say, its been the most problematic car ive ever owned and ive had about 20 in the last 8 years.

mine also had this similar ticking - but was also smoking when it idles for 20min or longer.
Dealer is replacing the engine as we speak. had 40k miles on It.

I have some beadlocks im about to put on here for sale - tires still have tread, but have been used for 25k miles. I know you are looking to swap, but chances of someone swapping the beadlocks for the non BL is very slim.

Hey Guys,
I have a service appointment scheduled in a week with my local dealership. That is the soonest that could get me in. In the meantime im wondering if anyone else has noticed their truck producing heavy smoke from the tailpipes after the truck is idling or warming up.
