Hey there guy, got a new bf xr6t 3 weeks ago, done about 2000k on it already, I m just qurious sometimes when I go into the corner or aroundbout I can hear something like scrubing or letting some sort of a air out. Is this the commen thing with these cars? I m gonna let the ford guys know about it when I go for 3000 check up service.

Ok thanks, I just checked inner guard plastics to see if its hitting that but no sign :(, just another thing to let the ford know, I m also gonna complain about the drivers door not shutting properly and also the fuel door thing is opening sometimes :). I know last 2 are minor issues but its a new car :laughing:

btw fpv tanny were u at the broad water car park last saturday seen a blue one just like yours with plates tyf*** something like that?

ok went for a drive to my gfs place, I noticed same noise when I take off in first gear just after letting the clutch go. Its there just for second or 2. Sort of like lil grind noise, maybe belt tensioner :(. Its annoying when I know its there.

iu sure its not the gearbox making the grinding noise? mine does that, at low engine speeds the gearbox grinds and you can hear it outside the car to. ford say its normal as the box doesnt have much insulation on it. so I have every intention of thrashing the arse out of the box and if I break it in 3 years they fix it.

yeh I think its the gear box noise, sounds like grind or rattle as u said when its in low engine speed and sometimes when I take off in first if I take off slowly but if I do I bit faster with bigger revs it doesnt do it .

yeh that's the gearbox, I just did a little reading on that and its ment to be normal according to a few sources so its nothing to worry bout, just means you need to rev your car a little more

Haha that's a good solution :spoton: I stared to drive gently coz I heard the noise lol. Thanks heaps man your the champ :spoton:
