I noticed that my Ford Fiesta's engine has been making a knocking noise lately. I'm worried that it might be a sign of a bigger issue. Should I be concerned?
ReplyHi Haley, the knocking noise could potentially be caused by a few different things. It's always best to get it checked by a mechanic just in case, but it could be something as simple as a loose bolt or a faulty spark plug. If the noise is accompanied by any other symptoms (such as decreased performance), then I would definitely recommend getting it checked as soon as possible.
Hey there Haley, depends on the type of knocking noise. If it's a high-pitched rhythmic tapping, it could be an issue with your valves and might need to be adjusted. If it's a deeper, more dull knocking, it could be something more serious like a bearing issue. Either way, it's always better to get it checked out sooner rather than later.
Hi Haley, it's hard to say for sure without hearing the noise myself, but it's possible that it could just be the normal sound of your engine. Ford Fiestas are known for having a bit of a louder engine compared to other cars. If you're really concerned, you could always record the noise and bring it to a mechanic for their opinion.
