I still say for the majority it's a fuel system noise. Sure there have been engine replacements but not "thousands" as someone claimed. Replacing engines is no unique to any car manufacturer. I've got the 2k rattle and it sure acts like fuel system. You can get it in the middle of the...

I've got a manual and notice the noises can be similar when you rest your hand or grab the shifter. I'm not sure it's driveline as mine will make it on cold high idle with the clutch in or out and there's not much in the driveline at a stop with the clutch in. Maybe the flywheel? I'm still...

Spent some time driving the Mustang this past week as it was cold but not snowy and she looked sad sitting in the garage.... I think it's fuel related. I've got the 2k rattle and noticed that it's there when it's cold (high 30's/40's) and the car has been sitting. It's there as soon as you...

I'm thinking there's multiple issues at play as well. I think some are piston issues and others may be fuel system or VCT issues. We've seen some bad engines that are getting replaced so it may be one of those things where you do a PCM reflash first and then look at the engine if that does not...

Mine is the 1800-2200 or so diesel rattle that happens on very light throttle application. If you lightly press the throttle you can hear it come and then go.

I've got the rattle and I notice it happens more/worse when it's cold. Even to the point that sometimes at high idle I'll hear it. I'm thinking it is fuel system related and that at certain throttle positions the HPFP or injectors rattle. Could be easy for them to program around, especially...

Most likely it wasn't Carfax but Ford's OASIS system which tracks all warranty repairs. Last time I looked at a Carfax (2014) it listed service but very general service and not down to what was done. Ford's internal systems definitely do have that information and are available to Ford dealers.

Yeah- I'm pretty sure immediate family is OK. May be a good idea to check when you call.

You can only use a PIN once but I think you can request 2 or 4 PINs per year.

The salesguy told me Ford will only tow to the closest dealer but I'd call and see what they say - it may be different in Canada. I think the 2k rattle @ light throttle is fuel system as it's on all the 5.0's, Mustang and F150. The rattles that are at idle and are throughout the rev range are...

I'd call Roadside assistance and have them tow it. Not sure I'd want to try to drive it and risk an accident.

The title of this thread is "2018 GT ticking intermittently"....

So then which 2018 issue do you have that you are here to help with? Or is it just to post lots of negative stuff and stir the pot? Considering the #'s of 5.0's Ford sells (remember it's also basically the same engine in the F150) there are also very few engine issues.

Show me where I said that? I've said the noises all sound alike and there may be many causes - some catastrophic and some normal. If anything the noises should be documented. But unlike people like you who don't actually own a Mustang and constantly post negative things, I have a vested...

Much to your dismay I believe only 2.

Chrysler/Dodge/Ram/Jeep has never made a reliable vehicle. Part of the reason they went bankrupt TWICE.

How the hell do you guys fit back there? I'm 6'2" and was in the back seat once. Seat all the way forward and my head was hitting off the roof. My wife is shorter than me and she doesn't fit headroom wise either. It's OK for kids but not an adult.

Armchair quarterback here but I think if it changes depending on drive mode it's the fuel system. We know that the drive modes change the throttle mapping and possibly the fuel mapping (drive in snow mode and it's like someone put an egg under the accelerator) so it would make sense that they...

54 years of continuous production will do that to you. People know it's a Mustang the second they see it - no ads needed. People probably still think the Camaro (if they know what it is) is not made any more since it took that hiatus.

On The Ecoboost 3.5 it's Fuel Rail Pressure - it's in Torque and I'm sure Forscan. I'm not sure what it would be on the 5.0 as it has 2 fuel rails. That's what I'm thinking. If your rattle goes away warm and is very throttle sensitive it's probably fuel system. If it's there all the time...
