Is This What a 2.7 L Should Sound Like in Bronco?

[Frank N]

Two weeks old today, has sounded like this since Day 1 while idling at cold start and while idling after any length of drive, but it will quiet down after a few minutes of idling. 1,700 miles already so I’m passed the break-in period and curious if this is normal because of the turbos or perhaps something’s not right, like a belt or pulley or bearing that needs attention. Took it by the nearest dealer this morning (not where I bought it), and they said they couldn’t hear anything. Idk maybe this is what a 2.7 L Bronco is supposed to sound like?

Sounds horrible, I'll take it off you hands for 35k

Thanks, I have not, maybe that’s just it. Is 226 degrees oil temp normal for a short drive around town, not towing or driving hard?

Seems high but I don’t know much.

Whoops just saw this massive oil problem, I can get you 32k....

enjoy the ride, your warranty has you covered and everything is normal including the oil temp.
