Asked by Ben Mar 31, 2021 at 10:05 PM about the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LS Crew Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 09 5.3l chevy silverado. I have a noise that
sounds like a ting ting ting. From under my motor.
Sounds like its coming from the exhaust. I
disconnected the exhaust and could still hear the
ting. When i put the truck in reverse or forward the
ting ting ting gets faster the faster i go then if i hit
my breaks its tings faster till i stop. Now i was
thinking flex plate or torque converter. Maybe
starter
Drive shafts are tight. U joints are good. Looked at
flex plate teeth they all look really good. The thing
that gets me is that when i hit the exhaust that
crosses over my transmission the noise goes away
for a few sec then comes back. Im stumped can
anyone help me out.

I checked them all. They are all good. Tight. No broken bolts. Not smashed in anywhere. Its odd. Ive had 2 mechanics look at it. One said exhaust and the other said flex plate. Just trying to see if it could be anything else before i spend all day ripping out the transmission.
