I'm sure you have but check the inner rear arches in the boot and the rear panel and rear seat belt mounts. Those areas sealed the fate of my seicento 😭. Yours does look really clean though🙂

Here's one of mine 17 owners to date.

Could be the aux tensioner, also worth checking the bottom pulley they are rubber mounted iirc and over time break up leaving the pulley to wobble around.

Stumbled across this and thought it would be of interest to alot of people on here. Basically it's 100 years and 10,000 images of ford brochures and images. https://fordheritagevault.com/

Wow I guess there is quite a bit of difference between the different variations of the 1.8t. The ibiza had wasn't that involved.😯

I've had two 1.8t seat ibizas , one from twelve months old and the second was around ten years old when I had it and both sounded tappy. Thermostat is easy to swap takes about 5minutes and cost less than £10. Iirc they are under the inlet manifold to the left if looking from the front of the car.

Sounds like either the boost solenoid or swirl valve / air doser. Yours is the 2.2 isn't it. https://frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26777&sid=cb75bf636084640da373177e8d4f1166&start=45
