MRS Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Hello everybody! MODEL: Ford Focus 2 1.6 TDCI 2007 80 KW 109 power The sound appears all the time and constant, metal on metal sound. I have a sound record: https://vocaroo.com/i/s0jl4ci0xndm Why is this sound appearing? How to fix it? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0CUE Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Sounds like most diesels I've heard but could be a pulley bearing cos sounds rotational. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRS Posted August 17, 2019 Author Share Posted August 17, 2019 Where do I find this pulley? Its from engine inside? or its an accesory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WireyWhenWet Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Hmm Lifter/tappet type sound similar to my petrol 1.6, just a bit heavier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilto Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Just sound like a normal noisy diesel engine to me, but I've always had petrol engines so I'm no expert sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRS Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 Thank you all! Does anyone know why is causing this sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WireyWhenWet Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Fwiw, this is my 1.6 petrol. Sounds worse on camera but it's just tappets/lifters. Mines not in the best of health really but it's okay. For the diesels I've seen first hand some of the oil additives can be good to quieter them off a bit, such as the sea foam that the Americans use, we have a similar one from Wynns (I forget the actual product) and Halfords have it for about £5. Worth a go for so little if it botheres you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 If you mean the constant metal tapping noise that's just diesel knock. It's completely normal, not a problem at all. It's just caused by the way diesel burns compared to petrol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
