Funny noise

[crocket81]

Hi all, noticed recently whist my car is running on idle I can hear a buzzing noise (doesn’t do it all the time) coming from down the front of the engine/ under the inlet manifold area, it’s not the cooling fans And I can’t see any other sensors or solenoids in that area,has  anyone else had this problem or shed and light on it?

Sounds like the fuel pump but that’s higher up next to the engine cover

Definitely not the fuel pump mate as I can see and hear that, think I’m gonna get it up on the ramp at work and have a little poke around

Hope it’s nothing too serious, look forward to your update.

I’ll update after work Saturday, fingers crosssed I find something!!

Had the car up on the ramp today just to check over it and check for any nasties, none at all found which was good! Checked for the buzzing noise and think it’s coming from the pcv valve, I could just get my hand on it under the inlet manifold on the block breather plate and could feel it resonating with the noise, it’s not constant but I’m sure it shouldn’t be buzzing at all! Might have to give mr ford a ring about it, least it’s not another head gasket failure for them…….yet!!! Lol

Did you find out what the buzzing noise was in engine bay?

My 2017 rs is making the noise.
