meddyliol Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Is the New Fiesta supposed to have a !Removed! exhaust sound? Mine has only done 38 miles and it does sound funny compared with my old 2007 Focus. Cheers Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy09 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 My mk7 is a lot deeper sounding than my mk6, but I wouldn't call it a farting sound :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has only done 38 miles and it does sound funny compared with my old 2007 Focus.Cheers Brian I've noticed this too - mine's got the 1.6 Ti-VCT petrol engine - definitely a different (more "rorty") exhaust note than any car which I've owned previously - maybe due to having two exit pipes from the rear silencer, both of which are angled downwards towards the road? Now that I've got used to the sound, I quite like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASHMAN Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 if u want an exhaust note get yourself a mountune exhaust :P :P Or a full milltek exhaust,sounds superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife's 1.4 petrol sounds quite throaty and farty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisZetecS Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 if u want an exhaust note get yourself a mountune exhaust :P :P I'd love to get the Mountune upgrade, but as of 2 weeks time I'll be doing 2 and a half hours worth of motorway driving every day, and I think the noise would annoy me. My previous car [Mini] had an aftermarket LOUD exhaust, and it used to get tiresome on longer journeys. What's the noise level like on the Mountune?

Put it this way - it would irritate you like anything driving on the motorway everday for that length of time, its the only major gripe I have really, its ok round town but on a motorway its annoying as hell.

meddyliol Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 Brian, it's normal mate. They actually sound a bit like they're 'blowing' a bit. My wife's 1.4 petrol sounds quite throaty and farty. Yes, you described the sound better than me. I was wondering about it 'blowing' but if they all do that then fair enough.

Brent M Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I have a Fiesta Zetec 1.25 and I am gutted with exhaust, it sounds like its blowing, and is so noisy. Dealer says its fine lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 i also have a 1.25 but i dont mind that the sound is a little "sporty",hell,i hate those cars that are so quiet you dont even know if they are on or off.... i read somewhere that the people in ford actually wanted a little louder exhaust sound in the new fiesta so the exhaust is a little bit more "open" than on other cars (vw polo,suzuki swift etc.) so it has a nice,deep sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent M Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think Blade is right, its all down to personal taste, you either love the new exhaust sound or hate it. I would prefer a quiet one, I tend to think it sounds like its blowing, but I'm probably getting old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer a quiet one, I tend to think it sounds like its blowing, but I'm probably getting old! You may find that it quietens down a bit as carbon builds up inside the silencers over time - I once had a new (stainless) exhaust on a previous car which sounded almost as bad as the holed exhaust which it had replaced; the garage assured me that it would quieten down over a couple of months, I was extremely sceptical - but it did! Wasn't just me getting used to it either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanS Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Having gone past the 1000 mile mark I've started putting my foot down a bit and it does sound deeper than I'd expect for a 1.4, but I'm not complaining :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
