2-3 metal clanks is correct but it’s very random when it happens to me. It only happened maybe 6 or 7 times with the last 2weeks. That sound can make ur stomach turn.

I brought it in to the dealer this weeken...long story short they didn’t even look t the truck as they claim they were too busy. I took the truck back that night and was furious! The service manager contacted me next day apologizing etc. So I will give them one last chance Monday plus I need them fix the ventilated seat.

I did buy the tube with the check valve on it FL3Z-3A788-A. I did not replace it just yet.

Dealer replaced mine on the passenger side. Said the hose/ tube was damaged but not by me. Haven't heard it since.

Giving an update - as expected the dealer was unable to replicate the sound and they are well aware of the sound I'm referring to. It's frustrating but I will be changing the part tonight.
