Hi all,

got a new Ranger, less than 1k miles and I’ve noticed this squeak noise at startup and for the first 5 minutes or so. It seems like it’s coming from the wastegate. It seems that the squeak is getting louder. Anyone else experience this? And if so, what has Ford said?
Thanks!

Hi Matt,

Sounds like the turbo boost rod rattling.... pretty normal....Take it to the dealer to confirm... Dealers can be problematic though....
