yossi Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 So, about 1 week into owning a 14 reg focus, a weird rattling noise around the driver's side dashboard was driving me crazy. I carefully checked every piece of plastic I could think of, before "determining" it was coming from inside the right hand side vent. I even bought silicone spray and carefully applied it following some advice online. Well, the rattle got worse. And then.. magically I found the origin. A f**** water bottle I had in the door bin. A BOTTLE OF WATER. And it drove me insane for almost a week. I have no cure.. :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanW Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Not long after I got the Focus, I was driving down the (then) girlfriends when the car started with a really loud metallic rattle. Pulled over, revved the engine, killed the engine, restarted it - no noise. Started driving off and after a few minutes, it started again! I grabbed my metal travel mug and took a slurp of coffee. I realised that the noise stopped...you can see where this is going...put the mug back - rattle...take it out - no rattle!! I felt equally relieved and stupid. Pulled over again and wrapped some zinc oxide tape around the mug where it sat in the cup holder. It's still there now almost 3 and half years later (To be fair, I haven't used that mug for a long while - I now have a Contigo mug - awesome bit of kit!!)
