Rattle sound during acceleration

Featured Replies

I normally drive with music or radio on but couple of days ago i had the sound off and noticed the car is making some kind of a rattling noise while accelerating.

I recorded the sound on my phone. Anyone know what this could be? https://soundcloud.com/user-320465778/f ... XxS90fhqRu (the sound is really obvious at 2:20 mark)

It sounds like its coming from under the driver seat (gas/break pedal area) not specifically the engine bay it self. I have also brought it in to the ford dealer. The mechanic drove with me and confirmed he could hear the sound. But i was told that its "normal" for the car to make this kind of noise until the first 5000km (mine has driven 1100km). I know with new cars you can except some extra noise until 1000km mark but i have never heard of 5000km before...what do you guys think?

The car is a 2.0 ecoboost edge 2019 238hp, diesel and had driven around 1000km when the recording was made.



Interested to know people's thoughts on this - our Edge sounds like a London taxi in my opinion - admittedly this is the first Diesel I have owned and surprised how noisy the engine is from outside the car, but thought I was being over sensitive!  It is okay from inside I guess.

I can’t think for the life of me what that can be. It’s like the tappet noise I used to get in my old 1986 Cavalier. Strange for this kind of noise in a new diesel. It’s kind of like noisy injectors. Sorry I can’t help more but I’d be interested to find out. 

The injectors can be reprogrammed with IDS to reduce their noise.
