Q: Tapping and clicking noise
Within around 5-10 minutes of the truck starting up, I hear tapping and clicking noises coming from underneath the dash. If you listen inside the engine compartment you don't hear them. The noises continue for a while even after the vehicle is no longer running. I attached a video of the noises while parked with the engine off. Also I am attaching one from while it is running. Thanks
