RichardR21 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hi guys i bought a Ford Fiesta Eco boost 1.0 100 on finance in the end of September 2019. The car was brand new (69plate) and is on finance. two weeks into me having it, a buzzing noise appeared when ever my car is on or around 2000 revs. The buzzing noise Predominantly comes from around the glovebox area at the passenger side and kind of where the dashboard is (left hand side mainly). The noise appears in all gears when at around 2000 revs i took it to the dealership for them to have it looked at but they said it’s nothing to worry about and is “a characteristic To ecoboost models”. I call bull****. It can’t be?! I wasn’t told of this, nor can I find it anywhere online and to me, a new car shouldn’t be buzzing at me. ive seen similar problems on the internet with other people and they’ve fixed it themselves. I’m notmechanically minded so I cannot do it myself. It just seems strange to me and I can’t see it been a characteristic. I think they’re trying to fob me off!

Guy Heaton Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 We have 1.0 100. It doesn't buzz. I'd be looking at things in the engine bay like the exhaust shield, could just need bending away a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Bloodaxe Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Long thread on this somewhere. Members have effected a cure by clipping hoses together with a cable tie, iirc. Edit: found it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliterox Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Yea, I can confirm that the cable tie method works. Just do that and it will be gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardR21 Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 Which hoses are they referring to? I’m not mechanically minded. I’ll have to take this into to the garage and they do it for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
