Hello everyone, the names ped im new to the site, ive owned my fiest since march nearly got it looking the way i want it but having trouble with a mechanical problem, need help/ advice.

Welcome along. I'm not far away from you buddy - down the road in Blackpool. What's the trouble?

Hi and welcome. If you state what the problem is, someone should be able to help.

Hi, when accelereating im getting a knocking slash rattle noise coming from the engine bay drivers side, you can hear it the most at around 2000rpm its really loud and annoying

Welcome on board buddy

hiya mate. Theres a good northwest scene in this site. Few from blackpool so get involved in meets.

Have a look a your heat shield over manifold Could be loose

hi and welcome

welcome, don't forget to join up proper for full access, sounds like a heat shield.

Hi, will look into the meets i hvent been to any yet as the car was standard when i got it so now i have modded the look to how i want it, trying to find a way to upload pics but cant work out how to do it lol,
Would the noise get louder as it gets hotter if it was the heat shield im waiting on delivery for a milltek flexi so when it comes i wil try removing the heat shield when i fit that.

How do i join up proper?

Welcome to the site mate I'm also from Blackpool quite a few of us around here, we all use photo bucket to upload pictures and copy the image URL, you join up in here http://www.fordfiestast.co.uk/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=115653&an=0&page=0#115653 and like suggested before the sound sounds like a heat shield problem if you can't find it best way to get rid of it is to wack the stereo up

Hope this helps pal
