Hey guys, hope all is well....

I have this noise that seems to come on from time to time and its starting to get annoying. Im not to sure what it is but to describe it for it sounds like a very light sort of poping/crackling sound, almost like the sound of boiling hot water. It sometimes sounds like a exhaust rattle but the other day I listened to it closley and as I went up on a steep drive way, the sound shifted as if it was liquid moving??? Its as if you were to rub togetehr a plastic lollie rapper together. My dealer told me he tightened the heat shield screws which did jack (standard) and the sound still lives...

The car is an FG XRT

All help will be apprieciated

Cheers! :slap:

I have the same problem and its only when its in gear and sometimes.

I have to get mine checked out but I think it was from me hitting the exhaust

when I was reversing. only happened when I did that.

dont think it would be fluid going through the torque convertor....

when does it happen exactly??

have you been thrashing it before you went up the driveway???

it could be the sound the exhaust makes when it is cooling down...
