Ford Territory has droning noise
Asked by John Rowe
My 2010 Ford Territory has developed a droning noise when traveling at 78 to 82 km/h that has steadily become more audible. My Ford dealer diagnosed the problem as a transmission fault and replaced the auto trans, but the drone persists as before which suggests that the transmission was not at fault. My dealer now says the noise is due to converter lock-up and it is normal, but if it worsens they will investigate further. What do you think?
Answered by CarsGuide
29 Sep 2011It's not normal; something is wrong with the car and needs further investigation to find the cause. The dealer has lost interest in your cars and is trying to fob you off. I suggest the dealer needs to check the driveline and maybe even the diffs.
