    Started hearing a new noise, getting a bit worried!

    check your exhaust flange bolts. ford left one loose after re-installing my x-pipe and it bugged the hell outta me till i got home and fixed it. description sounds the same, mine didnt rattle through certian RPM's either.

    over heating radio...???

    no the sun was not ont it. i was on the freeway when i noticed it, and like i said, the heat went away when i switched to CD. i dont plan on takin it to a dealer. i used to work at a dealer and they rape you hard when ever you go in for anything non-warrenty.
