- 2004 Explorer XLT
At idle, or when under about 700 rpm, my explorer makes a weird ticking/chattering noise. It sounds like it's coming from the front of the engine so I replaced the idler pulley and tensioner which made no difference. So I was trying to figure out what the noise was and it sounds like it maybe loudest by the intake manifold. This noise goes away once a little gas is given and it doesn't change with the temp of the engine. The engine runs extremely well and had never had any check engine lights also.
