Hi

Noticed today I have a bit of a squeek in my accelerator pedal (on a BA). I managed to spray some CRC up into what I think is the joint which is squeeky however the squeek still exists. Anyone else had this problem? If so solution to where the squeek is?

I had this issues under warranty and ford kept trying to do what you are trying.

Silly thing was, I had tried it too and told them it wasn't a simple solution of lubrication of what's visibly within reach...

They ended up replacing the whole pedal box and sent it to Ford who told them it has internal stress fractures and have since been replacing most under warranty unless there is something to void warranty etc.

If you don't have warranty then I dare say I have no suggestions to fix this issue. A new pedal box is hell expensive just to fix a squeak and my new one has slowly started getting it back, to a much lesser degree for now.

I have noticed in pretty much all BAs and BFs that are not new that I've been in to different degrees.

I also think most people don't notice it due to tyer and or road noise paired with wind noise and even the stereo being on..

For somebody like me who has worked to get all the silly random noises sorted out; it has highlighted the accelerator pedal noise at times.

I wish you luck and let us know how you go with your progress :beerchug:

normaly if I a mash the accelerator pedal I hear much louder noises - like tyres protesting for grip, exhaust note and the sound of a 747 taking off. My clutch has abit of a squeek everynow and then normally turning the stereo up a few notches fixes the problem.

:roflmbo:

I shot some CRC at it and seems to for now be quiet. However I think it will come back very soon. It only squeeked as I pushed on the accelerator for the first say quarter/half of the pedals travel. I do have a mechanical warranty on it and if it does come Ill get it replaced. Im very fussy I hate noises espeically the one coming from the seat belt adjuster...
