2020 F150 Platinum with 3.5 EB with 20k miles. Build date 12/2019.

Im getting a very faint whine in reverse. It’s faint and very high pitched. So much so that it almost sounds electric, as opposed to distinct gear whine.

I only get it in reverse when I’m slowly backing up after starting my truck. I don’t get any noise in forward gears and the transmission otherwise shifts and drives excellently.

Does anyone know if this is “normal” or what may be causing this? I’ve read about TSB’s related to transmission whine in 2019/2020 models. But I don’t know if this is that or something else.

 

Same here, only with cold engine/transmission.

 

How long have you had your truck? Has it ever caused any problems?

 

Bought it new early 2020. Zero issues. Perfect ride.

 

Parking brake?

 

Thats good to hear. I love mine, zero issues (other than this noise) and it drives and shifts awesome.

Maybe this is just normal? Again, it’s so weird, it’s so high pitched it almost sounds electric. Doesn’t sound like the typical gear whine you hear in a manual transmission or anything.
