I have an 04' Ford Explorer 4dr XLT 4WD with 150K miles. Recently, there is a loud ticking noise coming from around the engine when I start the vehicle. It only lasts for about a minute or two, and then goes away and doesn't come back until after it has been started up again after being off for several hours. It doesn't seem to affect the performance or any driving functionality (yet!) but I am concerned it could a part that could be dying. The ticking gets louder and faster as the engine is revved more. I took two videos that have the sound, one from the inside of the car and one from the hood.
From the interior:
From under the hood:
Anyone have any ideas what this sound could be?
Thanks!
