Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Pressure Release Sound From Under Driver Side

I have a new 04 F350 with only 2300 miles on it. Every once in awhile, I will get a sound coming from under the driver side of the vehicle engine compartment that sounds like back pressure being released. It happens when I am up around 2000 or more rpms and let off of the accelerator. I am gonna take the truck into the shop the first of next week just to get it checked but thought I would ask here first. It only happens when i am above 2000 rpms though.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Air Leak Sound Coming From Driver Side

I have an air leak sound coming from I believe the driver side. Sounds like an air line from a compressor leaking. Could see anything obvious last night or hear well over engine. When driving it's pushing more air. Nothing looked/felt loose. Didn't find any air blowing were I could stick my hand in a hot engine. Doesn't seem to have performance issue, maybe a little more turbo delay.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Hissing Sound - Air Leak On Driver Side?

My truck is running fine but it sounds like there is an air leak on the drivers side of the truck. When it first happened I was passing a car and it sounded like a vacuum hose come loose. It made a loud hissing sound. Now I have come to the conclusion it must be associated with the turbo. I don't hear the hiss unless I get into the truck and the turbo starts making boost. The more boost is made the louder the hissing sound is.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Small Coolant Leak Coming From The Passenger Side Near The Back Of Engine

I have a small coolant leak coming from the passenger side near the back of the engine that forms a spot about the size of a dinner plate if it sits for a few days.

One thing I noticed is if I turn off the AC selector switch when I park I will get the drip but if I leave the switch on MAX AC when I shut the truck off I do not get any leaking.

It is definitely coolant and not just the condensation from use of the AC. If I haven't used the truck for a few days or if I have run it with the AC off I will get the drips.

If I run with the AC on and leave the switch in the on position when I shut the truck off it won't leak. I have tried to locate it from looking above and below but can't determine where it is coming from.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Leak Coming From Top / Driver Side / Rear Of Engine

I have developed a leak coming from the top, driver side, rear of my engine and I could not figure out where it was coming from. I took it to a reputable shop for diagnosis and they tell me that the rear leak is coming from the transmission lines.

The weird thing is I never thought the leak looked like ATF. They also told me that it looks like the stock radiator/cooler has been bypassed so I have no cooler.

Should I assume that the stock internal cooler failed and that is why the PO bypassed it? Also is there a decent write up on deleting these lines and running soft transmission lines to a aftermarket cooler?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Exhaust Manifold Leak - Sounds Like Air Rushing Out From Driver Side Of Engine

So I started my truck this morning and it sounds like air rushing out from the driver side of the engine. I currently have my ICP unplugged due to a bad sensor, will be replacing it on Sat. Also I have been having an issue with my turbo but I don't think that it's related as I here the air rushing sound when at idle as well at when driving. It seems to be a bit louder when the engine is cold but I could also be crazy about that.

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Knocking Sound / Heavy White Smoke

So I am owning my first diesel so I am still getting use to it. Shortly after I bought it, I had to make my 900 mile drive to work and it ran great. After being here for a week or so I noticed heavy white smoke bit thought it had to do with the -5- -10. And haven't seen the white smoke since the weather warmed up. Since then I have noticed a "knocking" sound that to me sounded like a rod that I didn't notice before. After reading through these forums, it sounds like I probably have a cracked injector. I have had no engine light or anything. So my question is, can an injector fail or be cracked without an engine light and can a code reader detect which one it is with no light on?

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Steering Shake Noticeable At 75 Mph

I posted many months ago about a problem I had while towing. This weekend I towed about 5,000 lbs, bumper pull with no load distribution, for about 600 miles. The truck did well except for the steering shake I noticed at 75 mph. The road was smooth, all interstate, but it did go away when traveling about 70 mph. I've had the tires road force balanced, two alignments and it's stock with 20 inch BFG's AT (2012 Laria 4 door, 4x4, diesel). I'm running 65 psi with a dual steering stabilizer from pro comp and all four shocks pro comp as well. Could it be the casters or anything similar?
