running 192K miles on my 08 5.3. I have been noticing a ton more feedback through the body when the engine is cruising. when transitioning from 8-4 its pretty smooth, but when its running on the 4cyl mode it is very obvious and vibrates the truck and can feel it in my steering wheel. As I add throttle and it goes back to 8 its very noticable.. call it a "shiver". Trying to get to the summer before I have to tear into it or hopefully trade up to something new.. but still would like to sell with a good performing engine.
I had posted a while back about the truck hanging onto 4 cylinder mode at lower speeds when coming to a stop. this is still happening, I am sure it's all related.
Recently was up for its regular oil change and that had not changed anything, the cold start has maybe a very faint lifter tick but if it happens it goes away just as fast as I hear something.
Am I a candidate for a new VLOM plate? maybe time to change out the driver side engine mount? hopefully nothing internal (lifters, cam etc). There are no codes popping up, oil pressure looks real nice at all RPMS.
Thanks
