went work this morning down an A road and started to hear a knocking sound !!sounds like its coming from the bottom of the engine not the top its bin pretty smoky for a while and there's some thick mayo going on on the oil filler cap , came to it after work , started it and cant realy hear it knocking in tick over drove it 6 miles home got me home but the knocking sound came back ....

iv had one or two issues with it and know want it sorted once and for all !

so new engine

or sell it and move on ..... no thats not an option !

any of you go an 1.6 aee for sale ? need it back on the road.........

cheers ric

what i would do is buy a whole felicia 1.6 off ebay, you can get them for under £300 if you look about, then just whip the engine out and swap it over

knock knock , who's there ! yes my funs back ........... i didnt go for the new engine in the end someone sorted it for a very good price which im happy with . BUT when it cold it doesn't sound the best , a little like a roller coaster going up hill if you get me !! iv only had it back for a few days and told theres nothing worry about is this right ?

cheers ric

without hearing it, it's anybody's guess. but it shouldn't sound like a tractor tbh
