2011 f150 knock 5.0 - YouTube

That's the sound I had also, compression rings shot in #4 & #5 not good also. They replaced with a new short block and all is good.


After the second time to the dealer I sent Ford a nasty email and the dealer called in 2 days and said bring it back in. They did a scope of the motor and that's when they found the problem. They had my truck for 2 weeks, but gave me a new car to drive. N/C.
You got stay on the Ford and the dealer to get the problem fixed.

That's good news, got my truck back about 2 weeks ago with short block, and it sounds great.

I have a 2014 F150, 5.0L engine. I took it on vacation this past spring break and now it is making a ticking noise, I haven't taken it to the dealer yet. I plan on taking it there this week, annoyed because it is a brand new truck and not sure if I should take it to Florida this summer.

Having your dealer diagnose the truck is a great first step, Ken Cherchio. What's the current mileage on it? I'll research all available options.

Default Mine sounds the same as FordTruckTough

Mine sounds just (exactly) like FordTruckTough's. I am a little bummed.
It is running fine.
I guess I'll have to take it in.

November 2011 build date. About 40,000 miles.
