vindi93 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Ok i have a very annoying click noise everytime i pull away. No noises when i turn left or right. Or when braking. Only when i pull off forward or reverse click click. Changed both gearbox mounts so it isnt that. Once your moving and changing gear i dont hear anything.

(It can be loud or quiet depending how hard/fast you pull away) It sounds like that’s all your hearing (natural and nothing wrong) as you say it’s only when you first move off after starting the car.

Comares2001 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Poss drop link noisy but not worn . I've had this before including on new Mk4 I have now . Try opening up rubber boots on ball joints and spraying in white grease or ptfe lube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to bring up this old thread but I've got a Focus Mk4 1.5L ecoboost (or SA series as it's known here in Oz), and I hear a very soft click almost everytime when I hit the accelerator. Not all the time though. Only done 10350kms. Any idea what the issue might be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
