David V,
I started a thread in the "I Force V8" forum called "Diesel Knock Tracking", keep us posted there with your developments if it is indeed the dreaded "knocking" noise. There's a small percentage of us with it. Best of luck.

Well, if it's not an exhaust/header leak, and if it's not severe pinging(unlikely) it could be 'piston slap' or 'wrist pin' noise.
Do a search in this forum and the iForce forum on 'piston slap' for more information.
Some people say piston slap is not a big deal, but I can't imagine that the piston banging around the cylinder can be good.

Ok, i have a question for you, My dad has a tundra 2wd v-8 acces cab, When it cold and only cold, it makes a loud pinging sound, when accelrating. He taken it to a couple dealers and they have replaced the drivshaft, the exaust system headers. they cant figure it out and we really dont trust the dealer. has any one else had this issue or a problem similar? also the brakes. it has 25k and it one it forth set? sorry fpor all the questions,
