Static sound normal?
2019 f150 2.7 evo boost 100k miles
when it’s running I hear like static electric sound like zzzzzz coming from under the hood , it’s coming from the direction of those 2 solenoids. is that normal? I just wanted to make sure that’s normal, and if it’s not, what you think that might be ?
here is the YouTube link of the video

I can't tell you if its "normal" or not, but my 200k mile 2.7 is a pretty noisy motor. I hear a lot of the sound you're hearing in mine. I wouldn't worry unless you're actually having performance issues or codes. Just my 2cents. These engines being VCT and DI have an ungodly amount of solenoids and moving parts which all contribute to the noise levels.
