ghsaunders40 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hi all. We've just collected a 100 ps ecoboost manual last week. It's 1 year old and from a ford dealer with 12k on it. How quiet are the gearboxes on these cars? I've noticed to day ours has a whine when accelerating in 1st and 2nd. Nothing major, and you can't hear it when showing down. Is this normal? Not had a chance to call the garage yet. Thanks. Gh. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Mines about 18 months with 14000 and it whines a bit too so it sounds normal to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghsaunders40 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 Thanks for the reply. I thought so too, it does not sound sinister ( if that makes any sense). I've come from Fiat that broke down every time I looked at it, so probably over sensitive to any noise.

Sheriff Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I've a 1.6 ZS and get a slight whine in 2nd gear. Nothing sinister mate it's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jwsturner Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Hi. I bought my 1.6tdci with 17k on it. After I had it about 6 months the gearbox sounded a little noisier than when I first got it. I had the gearbox oil level checked and it was low. Got it topped up and the noise went. I suggest you get it checked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
