Knocking tapping idk!
I have a current knocking sound coming from my 2016 F150 XLT sc 5.0. Sound started around 20,000 truck has 30,000 on it now. I have taken the truck to the dealer 3-4 times now with zero success. I have heard anything from bad gas to we can’t hear it. HELP!! The sound is narrowed down to drivers side from driver seat to grill in that general location. I also have a video of the sound clip of it not the best video but I’ll send it to anyone if they can help!

Try narrowing down the problem. Does it occur all the time? Only certain times? When the engine is cold? Hot? Does the sound change? What makes it change? Is it variable with road speed, engine speed, both? Only in a certain gear? Any performance issues resulting?
Post the video to Youtube and link it here so we can all hear it.
Sound exist once normal operating temperature is reached. Normally happens around 2200 rpm right before shift with normal accelestion applied. Has about 3-4 knocks before going away. I want to say the sound is coming from the bottom end. It’s only happens during movement can’t regenerate at a stand still.
Hmm. Post the video for sure.
If you put the trans in manual and hold the motor at 2200, right before the shift would occur, is it constant? I'm wondering if it's a heat shield or something, and just vibrating enough at some resonance point.
