Ford Endeavour: Excess engine & road noise

I bought a 2016 Endy, 3.2 AT 4x4 recently. While I did a test drive, the car seemed very quiet and smooth. After a few days and especially after the 60k km service at a Ford Service Center, I think there is a remarkable increase in engine noise and the vibration also seems high.

Hi Friends

I bought a 2016 Endy, 3.2 AT 4x4 recently. While I did a test drive, the car seemed very quiet and smooth. After a few days and especially after the 60k km service at a Ford Service Center, I think there is a remarkable increase in engine noise and the vibration also seems high. I can feel the vibrations in the accelerator and floor. That smoothness and silence I experienced is definitely missing.

Can you please help me understand what could be the reason. And are all Endys like this?

Here's what BHPian Jaggu had to say on the matter:

Have you informed to the service centre this? What did they have to tell?

First thing you should check is if they have used the right grade of oil for the engine. Next would be to rule out any air lock at injectors, apart from doing a quick check of both air and fuel filters.

Here's what BHPian ruzbehxyz had to say on the matter:

Endeavours are very smooth even at 1 lakh kms., and silent inside because of noise cancellation system. This system only works with music. But even with the music off the cabin is pretty silent. There is no rattle inside the cabin as well.

Take your car to the same ASC and let them check.

Did you check the service history of the vehicle before purchase?

Do you have extended warranty?

Here's what BHPian dhanushs had to say on the matter:

Looks like you need to check this system. OR may be you've been previously experiencing noise cancellation.

Otherwise, I dont see how suddenly a service can change the NVH of the car. IF you insist on a mechanical check up since you feel the vibrations, check the engine and gearbox mounts and the injectors. You can also check the wheel bearings, for humming sounds at speed.

Download Ford pass app, register yourself and check the service history.
