    So today I noticed a weird noise now coming from my first gen, While I drive sometimes the truck decided it wants to make a cartoonish bonking noise, usually happens when accelerating. Im scared it’s something like a rod knock and this truck is my only mode of transportation and my daily. Please if anyone might know what it is I can try and upload video of the sound too if that might help.

    As Huckleberry stated, a video would really help a lot with the cartoonish bonking noise.
