Hey how it going. So heres the problem i have a slight tick/knock which i think is coming from the drivers side top end. Odd thing is that it doesnt make the noise at idle. i cant hear it from the top or bottom end. You can only hear it after about 1.5Krpm. Heres some vids: Like i...

Heres the sound from under the car:

So just an update i went under the car and this is what i found. 2 EXTREMELY loose transmission bolts that connect the bell housing to the motor and 1 bolt that was completely gone! I haven't been able to check the two top bolt because i cant reach them! Like wtf its only been 4000 miles since...

It hasn't gotten any louder or gave me any problems yet. No loss of power or anything. It's hard to hear anything at high rpm because of my exhuast. But I was thinking about just taking it to ford and having the hook up all the special tools they have to try and find it out. But as long as it...
