Metallic creaking/raddle at while decelerating

[ledftgen2]

Hello, I have a 18 SCREW that when cruising between 30 and 40 mpg and slowing down (both breaking and letting gravity slow me down) makes a creaking or rattle noise. It does it whether im in 4A or 2H and it doesn’t sound like the IWE issue. It is hardly noticeable with the windows up, so it is hard to get a recording of the sound. I plan on spraying everything that moves with some lithium grease, but does anyone else have any ideas? I have a video that you can faintly hear the noise over all the wind noise.

I have a similar issue, mine does it between 20-25mph. Think I have it narrowed down to needing to tighten screws on front skid plate. Can't hear it with windows up, but does it like crazy when slowing, braking or just coasting down.

Is it like this? The sound right at the beginning

Video was only 2 seconds long on playback on my end. I heard some weird sound at 1 second in, but nothing like what I get on my truck. I'll see if I can record it.

Recorded an 8-second video, but it says it's too large to upload.

Watched it on my phone, but amazingly there is more wind and road noise at 22mph than the actual noise. Can here it just fine by ear with the windows down or even cracked open just a bit.

Sounds like metal plate making a high frequency vibration for a duration of 1-2 seconds at a time. Will check screws on my front skid plate again, don't know what else could be under there that could possibly make that noise.

Seems to be someone else with a similar sounding issue, wondering if it could be cat core piece rattling around.

Ticking Sound from Exhaust

Hey Guys, I searched and couldnt find anything to similar to the issue im having. I have a 2012 Raptor with the 6.2. 183k and the truck runs phenomenal. I just got it about two months ago. However, there is a wierd exhaust tick happening. At first I thought it was something dangling under the...

Turns out I am missing the skid plate that covers the oil plug, but the clips were left on. Took off the clips and now I only have squeaking rear leaf springs.
