Hello, and question about rattling noise
Hey everybody, today is my first day as an RV owner! Bought a 2002 Coachmen Pathfinder Class C. 75k miles on it. Ford E450 chassis.
Anyway, drove it about 200 miles home today and it drove very well except for one weird thing. A while into the trip (or I didn't notice at the beginning), every time the RV would cross 20-21 MPH, there would be a noticable rattle from the front right part of the engine (passenger side). It didn't sound like grinding, but more of a shaking rattle. It would last for a few seconds at most, and then back to running fine. Seems to be slightly more pronounced upon deceleration but appears when going 20 MPH both when accelerating or decelerating. Any ideas?
Looking forward to getting involved in this forum and fixing up the RV for a good trip this summer.
