Of course Ford will call this normal, what other choice do they have. If it is normal, they should send an explanation to all owners and extend drivetrain warranty to ease their minds. The cost of cars today is out of sight, and spending that kind of money is a huge undertaking. I love our Mach and all the other Ford's we have owned, but people today are not brand loyal like yesteryear. I changed to 5W30 in the Mach after a year from new, and it helped the tick a lot. Recently I added Moly Lube from Germany and it is completely gone.
