Unfortunately, my previous thoughts that this ticking was normal were false. I spent a good deal of time with a mechanics stethoscope to isolate the ticking and thought I found it several times. For the life of me I could not isolate where it was coming from and I checked damn near everywhere. It almost sounds like a tiny nut laying in the oil pan getting thrown about. This tick is somewhat random and only occurs a bit at idle and speeds up at around 2200~ rpm. I checked out another 2018 gt at the dealer to replicate the sound but it wasn't there. My motor was an October build, and its made the noise to an extent since it was brand new with 3 miles. It now has 7300 and been through 3 oil changes with motorcraft 5-20 and im absolutely thrilled to have to take this to the dealer and go through the brutal process of potentially getting a new long block. :frusty: From what I've seen I am definitely not the first this has happened to IF worst comes to worst. I just hope its a smooth process and Ford doesn't try to fight me along the way if things take a turn for the worst:shrug:
