Sure. It's in this thread already, but here it is again. First is the most recent. Second is from months ago.Can you post a video of the noise? You already have the updated phasers and PCM calibration.

@FordTechOne do you know how many man hours FMC compensates the dealer for replacing the cam phasers? I’m just curious if it is realistic or not?

It does sound like a bad phaser; always possible to get a dud out of millions produced. Are you planning on bringing it into the dealer?
Fully understand . . . Can always have an issue. That's why there is a warranty.
Took it to the dealer before Christmas. Tech there told me as long as it doesn't throw code or last more than 5 seconds, they really shouldn't do it because it will come back. They told me they'd replace it if I wanted them to, but it will come back and I won't be happy. That's around 6,000 miles now with the noise.
Once the COVID-19 virus calms down, I plan on taking it back and having them replace it. I know you have said in this thread it can't get louder, and you know more about these engines than me, but I can say it definitely has got louder with time. I park in a garage every night, and each morning the noise is there, some days are louder than others.
Just curious if you hold the accelerator to the floor and crank it over to build oil pressure will it still make the noise when you start it?

I'll give it a shot. Just press the accelerator and hit the start button and it will crank without starting? Does the the truck when the accelerator is released?
