Thadcroft Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Hi everyone, Me again… 😂 Just asking for a bit of advice - I’m hearing a high-pitched rattle when my 2018 1.5l Diesel is idling. I was thinking it may perhaps be the heat shield but I’m not too sure. The car is being taken to a Ford garage next month, as it is due a service. Any thoughts on what it could be? I’m really hoping it’s not a belt issue. I have taken a video of the noise however I can’t add it to the forum. Cheers in advance 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 You can upload the video to Youtube (or any video site) and link it across to here. It does sound like a bearing from your description though - potentially a belt tensioner or alternator bearing etc. Have you got any history of the cambelt being replaced? I seem to remember the mileage is over 100k on this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
