The past week or so Ive noticed an odd sound coming from what seems to be under the hood on the passenger side.

It happens under light acceleration.

It almost sounds like an exhaust leak.

Im getting ready to cut my y-pipe and go to true duals, so I need to figure this out soon.

Ford will have a poo fit if I modify the exhaust, then go in for an exhaust issue under warrenty.

Anyone have a similar problem?

Kind of, but in rapid sucession.

crawl underneath and try to feel for a pulsing near the connections. do it quick, cause if the pipes get hot, you know your hand will touch it!!! it you feel it, tighten up that connection, or just tighten them all!!

Hey Geo,

If it was an exhaust leak, I would think you would hear it more towards you Azse mid-engine, below the firewall.

Where are you hearing it and under what conditions? I have to ask. hahahaha
