T2 2016 2.0 engine noise
I know this has been raised before, but i opened up the bonnet at the weekend, and it is significantly noisy around the right side of the engine. I followed the noise and it seems to eminate from the part below. Anyone know what this is? i cannot find it on any of the parts list for the car:
the noise is surpressed by the foam engine cover and the heavy amoun of noise insulation from the bonnet. I would like to know what this is, and if it can be replaced with a quieter one. Engine runs fine, its just very noisy for a petrol. I did comment on another thread regarding the noise of these engines, as i compared ours with a new one at the volvo dealer and it was the same.

I believe the part that you have circled is the brake system vacuum pump. However, the part just to the left of your red circle with the steel pipe running up to the fuel rail is the high pressure fuel pump, which is mounted onto the vacuum pump casing.
These engines are direct injection engines which feed petrol directly to the cylinders through individual injectors in a similar way to diesel injection systems. The system operates at high pressures and what you can hear may be the fuel pump resonating through the vacuum pump housing. Mine has an obvious tapping sound very similar to diesel clatter, although less intrusive, for less than a minute when started from cold, but apart from that I can't say that I find it at all noisy. Are you talking about a tapping or clattering sound, or is it something else? Some engines have been know to develop a whistle or whine that changes tone with the engine revs and is attributed to the balance shaft bearings. A modified balance shaft module has been introduced to overcome this. |

I will check the car on friday after it has heated up, see if that changes the sound.
