#1 of 14 1999 v6 mustang TICKING!!!! by jophez Feb 13, 2007 (1:42 pm)
I HAVE A 99 FORD MUSTANG WITH OVER 100,000 MILES AND IT HAS THIS LOUD TICKING. i CHANGE MY OIL AND MAINTAIN IT ON SCHEDULE. ANY IDEAS ON THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM OR HOW TO MAKE THE NOISE STOP?

Replying to: jophez (Feb 13, 2007 1:42 pm) Not without you giving some more details on the problem. When does it occur? How long does it last? What are the conditions when it happens? Have you had the scheduled maintenance done? Scheduled maintenance is more than just oil changes.   Just an off-the-cuff guess, you probably need a valve adjustment.
#3 of 14 96 3.8 ticking noise by mustangamt Mar 02, 2007 (5:08 am)
My 96 mustang is making ticking noises too. It only does this when I am accelerating if I am not stepping on the gas it is fine. Could anyone tell me what this could be. Replies to this message: akirby (Mar 02, 2007 5:26 am)

Replying to: mustangamt (Mar 02, 2007 5:08 am) Ticking? Or knocking? Big difference!

Replying to: mustangamt (Mar 02, 2007 7:20 am) A leak in an exhaust gasket or a crack in an exhaust manifold can sound like a mechanical tick and is louder under a load.

Replying to: jophez (Feb 13, 2007 1:42 pm) i can almost guarantee that it is the exhaust manifold, probably the one on the driver's side, this happens a lot with mustangs in 2000 and i guess 1999 too. for one exhaust manifold its about 120 and labor might be 400 or 500

Replying to: jophez (Feb 13, 2007 1:42 pm) also depending on how big the leak is you could weld it back together for a lot cheaper
#9 of 14 Additional Noise by kibanez Oct 03, 2007 (3:13 pm)
I saw this posting and thought I would add a noise to it. Has anyone ever heard a whining noise when the car accelerates? I looked at some wheel bearing information but it doesn’t seem like that is the root of the problem. I can only, intermittently, hear the noise when the wheels start to spin at very low speeds. Once the car is at 5-10mph the noise stops. Only noticeable when I accelerate doesn’t seem to happen when I stop. I take pride in owning a Mustang and want to get it back in shape however if its something I can take care of myself all the better!   Any help?

Replying to: kibanez (Oct 03, 2007 3:13 pm) I have 06 mustang and it started out with noise as you are describing. It is in the shop now and the bill is $3000. It has 46000 miles and I have babied it. The entire rear diff is shot and the axles too...thanks Ford. If I was keeping it my new personalized plate would be FORDLMN. Get yours checked..its a safety issue and ford couldnt care less. Replies to this message: mibus (Nov 26, 2007 4:06 pm)
