Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

For the last several months my truck has been making an intermittent noise when idling that sounds like a turkey gobbling. I could only hear it from inside the cab. The exhaust and engine noises were too loud when I'd get out to investigate. I finally discovered that the noise would go away if I applied a little pressure to my shift lever. I applied a little grease to the three contact points between the linkage, transmission and frame mount, and the noise is gone. Now I need to track down the creaking noise that's coming from rear wall of the cab. I sprayed lubricant in a bunch of the seams, but that didn't do it. I think I'll need to take passenger seat out and have my wife drive me around while I crouch on the floor to locate the source of the noise.
