Alright so I have a noise that sounds like metal windings or two metal leaf rakes rubbing or kind of like a bad AC clutch. Very noticeable when next to a wall other car or high curb. Sound is noticeable at 30 mph++ it does not make the sound idling or going slow. Doesn’t matter if it’s in 4 wheel drive or not, hitting brakes, AC on or off, shifted to neutral. I had Ford dealer look at it telling them I suspected a bad IWE. They looked at it said IWE was good and functioning properly. I also suspected it could be the brakes so I changed rotors and pads. Then I thought idler pulley and tensioner pulley so I changed them out also replacing the belt. Also had tire shop check inside tire to see if something was tumbling inside. Jacked up the wheel tried to spin fast enough to make the sound couldn’t reproduce it.
My last thoughts are alternator or possibly hub bearings but prob wouldn’t be alternator cause when I’m sitting still and reving it up no noise.
Any how I’m going a little nuts tracking this down and was wondering if anybody has gone through this. It’s a 2017 with 50k miles.
Thanks
