willsmgb Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Hi all, Quick question - I have a 2012 1.0 Ecoboost. It is very smooth/solid apart from speed bumps. Unless you crawl over them, the suspension makes a strange squeaking noise. It sounds almost like a rusty coil. I know the suspension in the focus is fairly complicated and this might be normal but wanted to check?! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossbclarke123 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Mine does this, I think it has since picked up. If you think it's a concern pop into your local dealer as has manufacturer warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 the ford focus has been plagued with the very complaint right from the mk1 i found if you get spray white grease and grease the rubber suspension parts it stops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willsmgb Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Thanks both for the replies. It seems to only do this when the engine is cold (first mile or so). Once everything is up and running, it seems to settle down. I wondered if there was any link? i.e. - suspension warms up and stops squeaking?

jeebowhite Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 sounds a probable answer to be honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
