Noise when pulling away from right front

[Harrymonk]

2017 Fiesta ST Hi there, has anyone had this problem? When pulling away there is a mettalic noise from the right front, only as the clutch is let in, when changing into 2nd when being a little aggresive it can be heard momentarily.
I would appreciate any thoughts.

Check your right side engine mount .

I will and thank you, Such a low mileage car only 11000 miles from new. Is this a common issue?

Depends on how hard its driven. It also could just be a faulty part. Is it still under warranty?

Im a new owner and not sure of its history. It just out of warranty. I will try to identify the issue.
Thanks for your help, I will let you know how I get on.

Hi PunkST,
You were 100% correct, due to Covid it has taken me a while to get the right engine mount, replaced it today and the noise has gone. It’s makes the car much nicer to drive. Thank you

Good to hear. And yes, other FiSTers have reported broken motor mounts, so you're not alone.
