Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I'd actually say it really sounds more like a rod knock, except that it goes away as soon as I rev the motor and a rod knock just get louder as engine speed increases. I changed the oil today and saw no metal or glitter. so there's that.
This noise is coming from the bottom of the motor, and is sort of random. I can also feel it in the shift knob when Im sitting at a stop in neutral. The DI tick is consistent with RPM, whereas the noise Im hearing is not, and goes away as soon as I rev the motor past about 1k
Fantastic. Now that you are here, please do explain why my brand new MACH 1 has the same BBQ/Coyote tick that has been plaguing GEN3 motors since 2018.
