Sherwood89 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Hi I am new to this forum as I only got my ford yesterday. Upon startin my 70mile journey back home, the first 4times I put my foot right down, it puffed out black smoke. It hasnt done it since, but when I got home and stuck my head under the bonnet, I can hear something that sounds like air blowing/leaking. Its a x-reg 1.8tdci estate. Any help would be very helpful. Ive added pics of the area i can hear hissing to see if any1 can see anything obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood89 Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 Cheers. Pic 1 is the left side of the engine, n pic 2 is the right side. Then the 3rd pic is right behind the bit on pic 1. I couldnt see any obv split, bit can see underneath. Im not sure how its ment to look, but doesnt looked fixed right up to the egde. The airvents inside the car make a funny noise when you turn them on, could this be connected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
