Exhaust rattle on cold start?

[Rezttu]

Mine has gotten worse over time and it’s pretty awful to the point that’s all I hear. Under throttle it’s just a loud rattle. It’s embarrassing.

I have 33k miles on my gen3. I imagine it’ll get worse for you guys as you put more miles

crazy thats its gotten worse. mine is only present when I remote start or put in normal mode, sport is less and Baja is even less noticeable. When I manually start it starts in quiet mode and I don't hear it then. well at least its very very faint. after its warmed up I don't hear it at all. I am at 15k. hope it doesn't get worse before the actual fix is a for sure thing

Ford truly does not care about anything besides selling the vehicles as fast as they can. Unlike Toyota, their reputation doesn't rely on quality, and therefore they don't care

My 2022 Tundra was a rolling factory fault. Tons of problems, not unique to Ford unfortunately. Quality of all new vehicles has declined.

Hilarious. Article from a year ago that was sorted within 2 weeks. Meanwhile on my raptor the headlight flickers, exhaust rattles, stereo cracks and pops... and Ford has done nothing about it. Maybe you're the brainwashed one? Ford was supposed to come out with a fix for the embarrassing exhaust rattle 3 months ago.

I'm so confused. If you hate your Raptor's QC so much and think Toyota's is better, why do you have a Raptor? You can sell it for top dollar, get your Toyota, and join the circle jerk on the Tundra forum. It's a win for you and a win for us.

Add mine to the list.

I should add, it's annoying yeah, but I'll deal with it for now. I love this truck.

You should try actually owning a new Tundra, I did. Truck had more problems in one week than I've had with 5 years of Ford's (Not a Ford fanboy, they work), so I actually speak from real world experience. And my Raptor isn't perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better than my $76K 2022 Tundra was.

Ok so I don’t want to give any false hope here, so take what I’m about to share for what it’s worth….

I dropped my Raptor off at the service dept yesterday for the 10k service along with some issues that need to be addressed. One of the items was the exhaust rattle on cold start. I printed out the service bulletin, showed the advisor, and let him know that I understand there is no fix available yet but want it to be on-record so that when the fix becomes available I can get it done.

A few hours later he called me to give an update and told me that he has the part on order to fix the exhaust rattle. I was surprised and figured he just ordered a new muffler (which we know is only a temp fix at best) but he said no, that he ordered an updated valve.

I don’t have the truck back yet, most likely will tomorrow. And again, no idea if this is the actual fix for the dreaded rattle or just an attempted bandaid. I will update you all once Im able to talk with the advisor more and have the truck back to see for myself.
