ndp980 Posted June 28, 2021 Report Share Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) Hello, Brand new member here so if this has already been answered please reply with the link or direct me to the thread :-). Purchased a 2019 Titanium Ecoboost FWD and noticed that (especially when the engine is cold) there's some type of mechanical grinding/buzzing sound coming from the engine/engine bay. It seems to match the RPM's when accelerating (but I don't observe any throttle response issues). Sound gets considerably milder/quieter as the engine warms up. Plenty of warranty left on the powertrain. Took it to my dealership a few weeks ago and they had it for about 2 weeks but never even attempted to put it on the rack; they said that the sound wasn't loud enough to warrant cracking open the powertrain. Audio recording attached. 1st time owing a turbocharged vehicle so I get that I may hear different sounds from a N/A engine but to me, this just does not sound, for lack of a better term, "mechanically harmonius". Any thoughts/suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated!!
