The Cummins knock... It is the front gear train, up under the cover in front of the motor. It gets noisy when the compressor is doing its thing.

Yes ,so it not just me I thought it was just me that was hearing a knock ..
They want to come in..
Mines a noisey one when the compressor is building air. But pretty knock free compared to the older engines when its done compresserating.
Ok so it not just me then ..knocking good then when the air blow off she nice in quiet..
My air compressor started knocking pretty loud after 650k miles, so I replaced it. I just did not want to fool with it lol.
