Week 13 update
To stop the rattle on start up:
-VCT solenoids replaced (never heard the cam phaser noise, but they said this was the issue behind the rattle)
-Catalytic replaced (due to them stating that this was the source of the rattle)
-Driver side Turbo replaced (turbo was last item and...
Mine did the same. They replaced the VCT solenoids & catalytics and the noise was still there. They finally gave in and replaced the turbo a few days ago. they even stated the noise was "normal". I questioned them on if its normal then why the VCT and cat's? they have had the vehicle 11 weeks now.
week 8 update.
catalytic was found to have a rattle on the left bank, however the vehicle still had a the cold start rattle. That being said it did not seem to make as much noise upon start up, but the rattle/flutter was still there. It seemed there was two noises that where occurring, the cat...
Update 6 weeks 1 day
Dealer called today after I reached out to cancel my service plan and extended warranty. They stated the catalytic is causing the cold start rattle. Part ordered, we will see.
I informed the GM that I have owned the vehicle 10 months, of those 10 months they have had it 2.5...
Update. Week 6 at the dealer
dealer and Ford are stating that the rattle on start up are a normal noise now. after they replaced the VCT solenoids to "fix" the start up rattle. I have what I believe is a turbo waste gate rattle on start up and acceleration. Its been there for 6 weeks now and...

went to pick up today after 4 weeks at the dealer. they could not replicate the grinding noise that occurs every so often on acceleration and the rattle was still there after a cold start. they stated they fixed the rattle by replacing the the vct solenoids but it appears that wasn't the issue...
dealer has had the vehicle for 3 weeks. New brackets where ordered for the sun roof. I sent the TSB's to dealer for the tailgate, mirrors and the intermittent grinding when accelerating, cause they said they could not reproduce any issue except for the sunroof. So I asked them to at least look...
2018 Ford Expedition 4wd 33k
I looked around but can't find any definitive answers. My truck is at the dealer and they state the turbo rattle is normal and will not be replaced. It rattles when started from a cold start and when the throttle is applied moving or in park. Does Ford warranty this...
Could you point me to this TSB? Mine rattles and the dealer says it’s normal. I do know when they gave me a loaner it ran way better then mine and didn’t rattle
not really wanting to go to the dealer with the current climate of COVID. Looking for some insight on my sunroof. It will not slide back, it drops down like it’s going to but stops there. If I hit the switch over and over and pull the glass panel back I can get it to slide back sometimes. I...
Dealer said it was waste gate and was normal. it sounds like a rattle as if something is loose.Kinda like a very audible on the turbo when using a stethoscope when someone tapes the throttle. It took them 3 weeks to determine that. I am not pleased with the service or sound
New to me Ford Expedition AWD XLT. Vehicle has 30K. When I apply the throttle from a stop or while parked I can hear what sounds like a loose heat shield for lack of better term or a rattle from the driver wheel well/firewall area. I used a stretoscope and it sounds like its coming from the...
