that doesnt sound any better at all danny

Sorry bud but to me that sounds like an engine apart job, why don't you do a compression test to see whether it is top end or bottom end?

 

[Steely]

does the noise appear on a cold engine? or only once warmed up? Little end bearings will rattle like that due to oil starvation, but you wont usually notice it until the oil's up to temp

i cant help but think a rattling injector, they dont fail usually but ive known a few on Rover/powertrain k-series
engines to do exactly the same,

[DaNnY_LaD]

about 5 minutes before i pulled up on to my drive...I was turning on to the drive and when i came to idle it was fine then it just started ticking...

Just out of the blue really...car hasnt moved in 2 weeks

 

[Mark300zx]

I would be extremely reluctant to move it anywhere until I know what is the matter with it!

 

[wayne lcr]

was any of links helpfull what about phoning sum 1 of here like bill at badger and asking them

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

ive sent bill a message just waiting on a reply..

ive Just checked my Oil and the dipstick isnt even marked with oil...I put 4 litres in....Seems i need some more oil..

 

[wayne lcr]

can you rember if it was showing on the dipstick when it started doing it? and your oil light shud be on ?

 

[Steely]

4 litres wont show on the dipstick, 4.5-5 litres including oil filter,

 

[wayne lcr]

so thats why i said the oil warning light shud be on unless it ant been working on dannys car thats why it sounds like that

 

[Dan1720v]

that sound too loud to be lifters.

is it me or does it seem to loose revs very quickly??

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

4 litres wont show on the dipstick, 4.5-5 litres including oil filter,

Thats Proberly why...would it be sucking up oil even thought there 4tls in it with a fully drained oil system and new oil filter..

so thats why i said the oil warning light shud be on unless it ant been working on dannys car thats why it sounds like that

Yeah ive had no oil light on the car since ive owned it plus i check the fluids ever sunday..

that sound too loud to be lifters.

is it me or does it seem to loose revs very quickly??

What could it be then?gonna see if awesome can sort it out...everyone i spoke to said it could be a lifter as they said it sounds just like that a dry lifters..

 

[Dan1720v]

it sounds almost like its trying to sieze up. did you prime the new oil pump? check the pressure before firing it up?

 

[wayne lcr]

you need to get that oil warning light sorted asap danny and get some more bloody oil in or could be a new engine job

 

[Dan1720v]

if im honest it sounds like its too late.

 

[wayne lcr]

but we all can sit here and guess what it is he needs some 1 that nos and to tell him what it is? i feel for him cost theyh ant cheap cars to run without any problems with the engine or what every else that goes wrong with these fing cars
