I’m also having to replace the transfer case as it makes all kind of terrible noise as well. Apparently it’s gears grinding.

My buddies 2019 was just diagnosed with cam phaser problems. Galpin scheduled him for 2 month out. They have 35 ahead of him. Keeping fingers crossed for my 19 to stay sound.

My build date was 22Feb17 and I am currently trying to get mine replaced. 9,000 miles out of warranty so we’ll see what happens. No mods at all.
Engine warranty is 60k miles, you are over that? Best of luck with the repair.

I have been having problems over a year and had the truck in 3 times. On this visit they found the cam phasers and transfer case. It was well within warranty when it all started. They are working with me at least to get this resolved.

Looks like I didn't have the newest revision of the part ending in CD.

you and me both! mine was done same time & looks like i'll have to go back in.

Has anyone with "CD" had the rattle come back yet?

So I've been off this board for a bit as I no longer own my truck. I've read through some of these posts and there is some misinformation being put out. The sound doesn’t always “appear” overnight with a loud start up, or at least it didn’t for me. My first time I had it I actually heard the warm cam phaser knock first as I usually started my truck from inside and let it warm up for a few minutes. Once I heard the knock and looked around online I listened for the start-up rattle and heard it. Honestly, it was nowhere near as loud as others have posted but it was definitely present. I took it to Dealer #1 who did nothing about it and told me it was “normal”. I listened to that sound get progressively worse/louder with time and after multiple visits with video evidence I took it to dealer #2 who diagnosed it immediately on the first visit. About 1k miles post repair I swore I heard it one morning after leaving it parked for over a day. I started to listen for it and sure enough it was faintly there and started getting louder and louder. I took it back to dealer #2 who again agreed with me that it was back again before my first oil change. I know others who have had the repair state that it started as a faint sound and got worse with time. So, this is a possibility and shouldn’t be overlooked. That 2-3 second stutter/rattle at start up stands out even at a low volume.

I had the "C" marked parts that failed quickly.
