I have a ford puma which has about 11,000 km. A few days ago, all of a sudden, I realized that when I turn, when I apply the brakes, when it has an uneven road, the sound of the fuel tank, the diesel that is inside my car, is heard. This happens either when it is full or when it has little fuel. I never hear this sound from the past for 11,000 km. It is very annoying because it sounds like a big bottle of water that is constantly shaking and creates sounds like a bang in the cabine or in the back of the car. I asked the ford company in my country and they told me it was their first time they have this problem. They also heard the noise. They checked my car and there was no hit. They suggested to change the fuel tank but they do not know if this will fix the problem.
