I have the 1.5crdi Cerato, describe your weird noise, I have a noise on mine that has been there from day one but is only there when pressing hard on the accelerator.

its like a small rattling noise when turbo's working .and goes away when you take foot off pedal .

Yes thats it, it is part of the normal engine noises, its there in mine also and mine is a year old.

Yeah I am pleased with mine too, it gets better the more miles you put up on it and I agree they are great engines also, Paul.
