Just a long shot here and apologies for the poor description. Hope you guys can help me with an issue

I seem to get a whispy maybe metallic sound when pulling away at low torque. Cant pinpont the issue but sems to be front bottom end and only when accelerating? Car drives fine otherwise.

Not sure where to start with this one but any ideas appreciated

 There is a 'clunk' noise on my 2008 focus at about 10mph - it's the ABS self testing.It only happens once though on each start and pull away and is normal.  Don't know if it could be the same thing on yours?

Thanks but my noise is more like air escaping maybe a leak in the exhaust?

Bit confused cos it only seems to happen at low revs

I've had two Focus now and both have made a slight metallic tapping at low torque, no idea what it is.
