GEN 2 Direct Injection Noise?

[MJslasherADMIN]

You folks are experiencing the normal ecoboost engine noises. They will do nothing about it. The 2011-present crowd has gone through this already and Ford doesn't fix... it is "normal " operation for the ecoboost

But other Raptors dont have my engine nosies. However Im sure Ford wont do anything about it.

Ford called me a few minutes ago. Out of my three reported noises/issues, they only looked at one of them so far. They took the top cover off and listened to high pitched rattle sound. The Ford techs said it sounded like the Phasers. They called the Ford hotline and reported it and are waiting on feedback.

Meanwhile I will be driving home in dealership Ford Focus. The dealership didnt have an available loaner. So I had to pay to rent a car from Enterprise at Ford. They said they would reimburse me if any issue was found. Loaner will be available Wednesday.

See, the cam phaser issue was never solved.

When Ford replaces Cam phasers does the noise go away, sometimes?

Have you watched my original video of the horrible sound with throttle blips? Curious if you have any idea on that one. Do you think that noise is also the cam phaser?

One of your noises is definitely cam phasers. You do have others that are associated with the wastegates, and the HPFP.
The cam phasers go bad (rattle) due to lack of oil flow to them. This has been a 3.5 ecoboost problem as Ford does not have a repeatable way to ensure clean, clear oul paths for the cam phasers. Ford just installs new cam phasers and never addresses that this an issue in the engine block.

Thanks for the feedback.

Update - I called the dealership to check the status on my truck. Ford Performance called the dealership earlier today to ask the tech additional questions about my truck. After the tech answered the questions FP said they will call him back again later today or tomorrow morning.
The tech said he thinks Ford is going to recommend replacement of the Cam phasers.
If that is the case I can count on my truck being down for several says and I will miss the Texas Raptor Run this weekend. That really ******* sucks. ******* EcoBoost.

However, I would rather Ford take the time and fix my issue vs telling me its normal.
