I have an 05' F150 and its been making a clicking noise for some time now...but only when the engine warms up. It sounds like a diesel..ive been told it sounds like a cam phaser issue...if anyone knows or has any ideas i would appreciate the help..thanks!

 

look up cam phasers

 

it could also be bearings worn out on the roller rockers or lifter issues. i have seen it before a couple of times once the cam was even worn

 

Is there a certain mileage that the cam phaser issue comes into play or is it random? My 06 has ~55K miles.

 

Cracked exhaust manifold on passenger side????

 

i have the same problem i have an 06 5.4 and its and exhaust leak or cracked manifold 100 percent i just fix it last week and sounds new again
