Hi All I have recently acquired a 2010 Mk4 Mondeo Titan x Estate Auto. with 31k on the clock after having a Honda accord Tourer for only a few months ( too small internally for my needs ). Up to last year I had a 250BHP T5 V70 and never had a problem with it in 13 years. Prior to that I had a full spec.Mk3 Granada Scorpio which was superb ( apart from bodywork problems ) and way in front of its time. The only thing which disturbs me with the Mondeo is transmission whine at low speed in 1st gear ( and possibly 2nd ). This is not particularly noticeable unless you are crawling along with the window down, but seems very similar to the kind of whine often heard when a vehicle is reversed ( if that makes sense ? ). Has anyone noticed this type of noise - is it a normal characteristic of this gearbox, or should I suspect a problem ? Martin

I had the same whine with my auto cmax, and another member said they had
the same, its entirely possible that they are a characteristic?

I had an auto focus saloon and that had a whine but was perfectly ok, if you feel its something you want to get checked out then do it, I only know too well that when you feel something is wrong with your car whatever anyone says it stays at the abck of your mind niggling you
