Medicus Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Recently bought a 2015 ford fusion. It's a 4 cylinder 2.5L. I'm not a mechanic by any means and not very car savvy. Anyways is it normal to have a slight knocking noise with the Fusion's? My car has low miles and never has been in an accident. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirtanon Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) Knock? no.. Rattle? Yes, definitely. The 2.5 engines in the Fusions are pretty noisy. I have heard them likened to an old sewing machine, etc.. It should sound, roughly, like the engine in this video does, at 2:15. (Please note, he's comparing it to another 2.5 engine with a known cylinder 2/3 issue, which you will hear about 10 seconds later where he says "and you can hear it best now... "): Edited July 24, 2018 by sirtanon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medicus Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 If you made the video start right at 2:15 that is what my engine sounds like. Not really after the 10 second mark. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirtanon Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hmm.. looks like it wants to start at 2:19.. but no matter, that's still the 'good' sounding engine. It's normal for them to sound like that. Mine sounds the same. If yours sounds (at least more or less) like it does at the 2:19 mark, then you should be fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
