So after 2 weeks they finally called me this morning. They are saying that the v belt and tensioner needs to be replaced... does that sound like a possibility of the source of the tapping?
Will do. Its been a week and no response yet. They are also diagnosing my front camera issue. If they tell me they cant duplicate the sound again i guess ill start with a fresh oil change and hope that helps.
Welp, that loud tick/knock is back. Will be going to dealership again in the morning. I just hope it is still present when i get there, otherwise they won't even take off the covers to inspect.
Well, dealership called me this morning and as expected they told me they could not duplicate the issue. Could it possibly have been a sticky lifter since it had been sitting on the lot for some time?
Well dropped off the raptor this morning and the tick was not present at time of drop off. I showed the person the video of the sound and they said, "woah that is very loud" . 1-2 days for them to diagnose. Not sure it matters but i opted to not mention to them anything about the warranty...
Yeah i had a 2 day window and the noise started on day 3. I did however drive the truck today to bring my dog to the park. The noise was there upon start up and by the time i got to the park the noise was no longer there... suggestions? Im scheduled to bring it in in the morning. Im hoping it...
Man what a bummer. I googled some videos of other lifter noises and pretty sure its a bad lifter. Just happy this happened on day 3 and not day 31. Really appreciate the replies.
Yes its star ford in glendale,ca. It came out of nowhere. Thank you for the response. It sounds awful and not the way any engine should sound. I called dealership and have to wait til monday to speak with the used car manager...
Hi all,
Very excited to be joining this community. 3 days ago i purchased a 2014 raptor with 105k miles and 1 previous owner. The truck is in pretty much mint condition. I checked all things recommended prior to purchase and everything looked and sounded perfect. The engine was extremely quiet...
