Engine noise

Postby dazlight » Tue May 06, 2014 7:42 pm

Have my custom since October and did think the engine was noisy while driving as my last transit was a lot quieter.
Last week my mate said it sounds really noisy and doesn't it drive me mad.
Has anyone else noticed this. Thinking of calling back at fords this week.

Whoops wait.
Last week here on the forum a transit custom driver complaining about noise noticed that something was wrong with the rubber around the steering column. The previous owner probably kicked it out of place.

If you can't find it, it's probably gone. ;)
Around the steering column though the floor/firewall?
I'm not in a Transit Custom yet so I don't have a clue.
