Got a new motor
Anyone who's got an 04 F150 and hears a knock, don't let them tell you it's normal engine noise. I got my truck 4 months ago not knowing of the problem and when the knock came back after they fixed the cam phasers and then it also had a fast tick at 800-1000 rpm , i brought it back in , that was a month ago , although it's been forever i am getting a new motor and should be back on the road next week . SUPER STOKED !!!!You have to be a thorn in there side or they won't do f#*k all , i bet if it wasn't under an extended warranty they would have had it done in jig time.

Same here. Replaced Cam Phasers in my 04 5.4. Then still excessive noise, sounded like piston slap. They replaced the short block rebuilt the heads and at the tune of $7500 paid by Mecury Insurance I now have a quite motor. Now if I could figure out this tranny problem.
