Hey there guys!
I drive a 2006 Ford Mondeo with the 2.2 tdci engine and it has fault I don't seem to understand what's causing it and how to fix it, so maybe someone of you have experience and can tell me what that could be.
The engine works normally from 1st to 4th gear under any amounts of acceleration, but when it's in 5th or 6th gear and holding a steady gas going at about 80-100 km/h (about 50-60 mp/h) the engine noise gets really loud and drones. This happens only when the outside temperature on the dash reaches 20°C (68°F), if it's lower than that, it doesn't happen.
For the record, I will name a couple of things regarding the car if that makes difference:
- EGR valve has been blanked off
- 250000 km on the clock (155k miles approx.)
- No fault codes regarding this particular case (only a yaw rate sensor failure code that i am already aware of)
- Oil, filters and other service is taken care of as soon as required
