meyer1120 · 03-28-2008, 02:11 PM

Ok so i know diesels rattle, i was a diesel mechanic in the army for eight years but i have a question and maybe someone can help me. at around 1600 and low speed maybe 2nd or 3rd gear i get a terrible rattle. To the point were it shakes my cup holder violently. I also get at cruising speeds of about 55 to 60. Like i said i understand diesels rattle, anyone have any ideas what this my be? I've ran injector cleaner and conditioner and still no change.

Sounds like your tires aren't balanced

I have an 05 and have no problems like that. Have you had your tires balance and rotated? Mybe a belt is bad on a tire? Check that out.

my brother had this with his 06 it seems like the engine is lugging and shaking real bad. It would vibrate his keys really bad. It was the rear U joint was bad. You might want to pull your drive shaft and check the rear U joint. That is if you haven't already got it fixed
