Possible TOB Issues
https://www.reddit.com/r/ft86/commen...tm_name=iossmf
This sound goes away when pressing the clutch. I can hear it a little less while driving and on the gas pedal, comes back when coasting. Car has 29K Miles, 2018.

I am in no way convinced it is the TOB unless you have a failure far different that the rest I have heard.

I checked them, I can hear them if I get really close to them, and then sound like always do. But is not as loud as it should be, to be listening to it from inside the car. The only part that leads me to believe is the TOB is because the sound goes away when pressing the clutch. I don't have issues shifting, and the clutch feels fine. So I really don't know where to start. Maybe just needs grease?

Well that puts me a little at ease. I know these cars are not quiet at all. Is just one of those new sounds that got me wondering. Though it has been reported that certain TOBs go out around the same mileage as mine.

There is no mistaking the sound of a bad TOB

It seems I have the honor, at least on the forums, of the first reported case of a fuel pump replacement, and also, the first one that had a problem post-repairs. I don't like these honors.

Well the fuel pumps was a recall so it doesn't count.

Mine makes the same noise even after installing a new bearing, clutch fork, fork pivot and clutch. It's definitely not the sound of a bad TOB. I'm starting to think its the clutch fork rattling on its pivot.

So I just turned the car on after coming home from work. No noise anymore. Fixed! It only comes back I’m assuming after the vehicle has been driven and then re-started. Kind of odd. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is definitely something something with the transmission. The car absolutely quiet in the morning when I first start it. The sound comes on by the time I get to work, and it goes away every time I press the clutch. I have no idea what would cause it.

This is again the total opposite of the "normal" TOB issue. It usually is worst when the car is cold and improves when it warms up.
