Does anyone else have this? It seems to come and go and i can hear it at stop lights with the window down. It only does it when warm and at idle.
I found the following TSB:
I will get a video of the sound later today and post it in this thread. Has anyone else had this issue or had it repaired?
I found the following TSB:
It seems to describe exactly what i'm hearing. My build date is 6/18/18 - so it definitely falls into that range. It does not have any negative effects outside of the annoyance of the sound, and I am not excited to have someone tear my engine apart just to fix this issue, but it all comes down to the technician doing the job.FORD TSB ARTICLE # 19-2140
Issue
Some 2018-2019 F-150 and Mustang vehicles equipped with a 5.0L engine built on or before 30-Apr-2019 may exhibit a chirping type noise from the upper engine front cover area at warm or hot idle. This noise may sound similar to a front engine accessory drive (FEAD) chirp noise. This may be due to the primary timing chain tensioner oil pressure relief valve. To correct the condition, follow the Service Procedure steps to replace the primary timing chain tensioners.
I will get a video of the sound later today and post it in this thread. Has anyone else had this issue or had it repaired?
