Vibration

[sparky82]

Afternoon all, so noticed this last couple of weeks a minor vibration through the steering wheel when you first start the car, as soon as you drive away it seemed to disappear so ignored it.
Today which is a hotter day the vibration was worse and through the break pedal too, it almost felt like driving a old diesel van.

Is this normal or should I be getting it to the dealers

When you first start up, if the AC is running it will go to high speed. Open windows and listen, and see if when it then slows down (as you sit there), the vibration goes away.

My first thought was the AC as well. Sounds and feels like a jet engine when you first start it up on a warm day.

Most definitely not normal, but I struggle to think of what else it could be besides A/C that you wouldn't feel more persistently.

Well it's definitely the A/C I turned it off and then back on and the vibration came back

As soon as it ramps down, if it's gone, then it's nothing.

Thanks, I just found it alarming as its stronger vibration than a dual shock controller, but up until recently we haven't had to use the Aircon

Afternoon all, i just wanted to put an update on about this issue, I got a direct message from Ford USA which was great they had taken an interest. They advised to contact Ford UK and after a call the car is now booked in to be health check to see whats causing the vibration.

Thanks for the reply's and thanks to Ford USA will keep you updated
