unknown noise

i own a 2005 f150 supercrew fx4. today as i was attempting to go out of town i was accelerating up hill and heard a noise, sounded like air coming through a window seal or scratching, which is not the problem. the noise only came on when i increased the acceleration, there is no power loss, the truck still accelerated properly and had good power, just that the noise came on. so i returned home only to hear the problem on flat land also, when pressing the gas to accelerate. the truck seems to idle fine and have no problem with low acceleration.

It could be the sound of the cooling fan if its hot out.

I would check the air filter and intake tubes for proper fitment.you may be hearing air getting pulled into the motor through a leak in the intake setup. That wouldn't cause any codes, damage, or running issues but it would sound similar to what you have described
