Default Tacking sound from hood comes and goes

Hello guys,

Lately I'm hearing some tacking sound coming from under my hood that comes and goes. I can't figure out what is it.

I remember seing some pictures in tech area of the forum regarding vent wings in the hood, but I can't find those. Anybody have same kind of sound coming from the hood?

Thanks.

is it a fast paced ticking sound like from the motor? Our motors make a good bit of noise already. Keep a camera with you and the next time it starts to happen film it. Even if you have to pull off the road.

Watch this video on youtube I just uploaded. First video is the one with noise is there then it is gone.

This one is with constant noise

Any help is appreciated. I want to get your opinion before I walk to dealer.

I have this exact noise and for me it happens when oil temps reach round 190-205. Im told its normal, but it sucks I have to say. Probably my only gripe with the car. Check out this link..

Knocking normal?
