I am assuming your Transit is an older model. To get rid humming noises out of Car radios in the old days from generators and alternators there was a device they used to put on the alternator. I think it was like a capacitor. I am pretty sure you can still buy these at places like Jaycar and Dick Smith. They also used to put a device in the spark plug leads to stop interference from the motor/alternator. I don't know if this will help or not but is worth a try. Of course it could be a squealing fan belt and will do it until the belt warms up. That being the case a bit of soap or crayon on the belt will/should stop it. Hope I have helped.
