Slight second gear whine 1000-2500 - anyone have this?

Post by madusmacus »

I think i posted my question in the wrong area before so ill try here :¬)

I just picked up my new 1.6 petrol titanium and seem to have slight 2nd gear whine when under power from 1500 - 2000 rpm (also same revs coming to a stop)

Only happens in second gear so i took it back to the dealer and tried another brand new one (exactly the same as mine) and that seemed to have this second gear whine also :¬(

Anyone have any ideas on this ... Its hard to complain when the dealers stock seems to show this noise.

Hey mate. When i picked up my Zetec S i had the same noise. It went away after a while (it never bothered me though). Was it on the forecourt for a while??
