I noticed that when I start my car after cooling overnight it seems to have a tapping noise until the motor is warm and then it pretty much goes away. Sounds a bit like a solid lifter cam.
I'm thinking piston slap, but my Lightning, which also has forged pistons is quiet on cold start (one would think they'd be similar).
Discussed with the shop foreman at the dealer, and he seemed puzzled as they haven't see this on any other 03 Cobra's.
I'll get them to check it out when I go in for my new drive shaft (yes I have the 80 to 85 MPH vibration too. Ford told shop foreman to install a new driveshaft after they did the EVT diagnostics).
Has anyone else experienced this with their car, or have any information on this condition?
