Hey all,
Car: 2005 LS Ford Focus Zetec Auto/Triptronic I was wondering if anyone else has had any similar problems to me with my car. I have a "vibration" noise coming from the engine block, when i accelerate on a hill or i accelerate too hard off. At first i thought it was an exhaust problem as it was quite intermittent, but now i have to accelerate like a grand mother, there is no loss of power when i accelerate normally, just an loud grumble. A mate of mine said it sounds like a gear box problems - I suspect it might be (but hoping its not), If anyone has any idea of what it is and what i should do. - it happens at about 1900 to about 2700 rpm - it happens when on a hill or under load - vibration can be felt in pedals Thanks in advance Spaldog |

Could be engine mounts too by the sound of it. Get your local mechanic to have a look. How long since the tranny was serviced? How many kms has the car done?
