Asked by GuruVPXG4 Sep 06, 2018 at 06:16 AM about the 2001 Ford F-150

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After car runs for a short period of time, i am hearing like a chafing (maybe
metal to metal sound). Thought it was breaks but two different mechanics say
no, but can't tell me the reason. Can you help?

Need more info, does the noise happen moving or sitting? Does the noise change with speed, describe the noise like tic click squawk (I always love this part in person) bump, you get the idea, where is the noise coming from.

Check the flexplate (flywheel for automatic transmission) to see if it is broken or rubbing against the cover.
