For the last yeah my brilliant ST has had one problem. A persistent noise that originates somewhere around the back left corner of the interior. It is a high pitched rattle that only happens on a rough tarmac or dirt road. It could almost be described as a ticking type rattle. It is possibly the speaker, trim or seat catches. For a long time I thought it might be a screw bouncing around inside the speaker but I've had it in with service twice and they believe its trim rubbing. Each time the say its fixed but it stats rattling within minutes of leaving the dealer.

Now I know I purchased a firm hot hatch and eventually it will probably shake itself to death, but I am pretty sure this is not normal.

Anyone had this or similar issue?
Yup mine did it.. back left. I thought it was the speaker, took it to Ford and it was the trim that was loose. They insulated the mounting points with foam and the noise is much better. It still vibrates when you have music with a lot of bass playing up load. Happy with the results and their service..
