Wordsmith,
Bear in mind, I'm half deaf. I figure that since I can hear it, it's gotta be LOUD!
The main reason it started bugging me was because it started not too long after the cold air intake hose popped off its connection when we first started climbing a big hill into Virginia. I was so sure we blew something to do with the turbo, that everything that happened at that point made me worry that we'd need a turbo replaced.
Thankfully, it wasn't a big deal, and was fixed with a replacement hose. But the hills leading into Virginia, and the fact that it was early summer made it hot enough to cause the temp to rise under those circumstances.
Thankfully, I have the initial warranty, plus the extended warranty. So no matter what it takes, we'll be good.
But the noise just made me wonder if I was the only one experiencing that.

Steve, I recently heard a Ford service manager say there was a recall in regard to that hose coming off the turbo. Not sure if it was in regard to the 05 or maybe the 04. The hose is located in the top front of the motor. One can put the hose back on and tighten with a scewdriver. It will hold for a while, sorry I can't be more specific.
