Soad Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 FOCUS 1.6TDCI TITANIUM X 2014 Not had the car that long and have noticed that the engine rattles (sounds like a petrol pinking), that sort of rattle mainly in low gears, I am using BP Ultimate diesel, should I try maybe Esso or Shell premium diesel? Could it be fuel related? Thanks 26500 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Andy_M Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 BP Ultimate is actually the best you can put in. Shell causes frequent DPF regens I've found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONATHAN_11_80 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 We have a 2014 Cmax 1.6 tdci this also rattles on acceleration its a characteristic of the engine and is a noise I have heard on other focus's 308's C4's which share the same engine. You may also hear a light ticking noise on overun this is the injectors self checking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
