[Solved] Mustang Coyote V8 Gen 3 engine noise

Hey Scotty,

I have a 2018 Mustang GT with the Coyote V8 Gen 3. It has a lot of weird tendencies. A BBQ tick sound on warm starts, a loud rattle sound around 2k RPMs on light acceleration only.

Ford has multiple TSBs for all of these issues saying it’s a normal “operating tendency” of the Coyote V8 with no explanation as to what causes it and no repairs are needed.

Have you heard about this at all and what to do you think? Only 13k miles on this car, normal oil changes every 5k miles or twice a year.

Also I have a 6-Speed Manual MT-82 which is a whole other story, you’ve already covered that!

 

Thank you!

Yeah they've had had some engine noises George quality isn't what it used to be I would actually not buy one today considering the lack of quality and their manufacturing of those engines and in many of their transmissions they use
