Engine Ticking, tapping, knocking

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Had this noise for months now, my first guess was camshaft, but just wanted some opinions on it, when oil is low obviously sounds a lot worse but sound never goes away no matter the level of oil.

 

Will it get worse, or is it worth taking a look at, I got a few quotes 2-3k just to take engine apart and have a look.  
 

Has anyone else had similar issue and what was the damage.

 

 

 

Thankyou 

That is pretty much how mine sounds and I have never given it a second thought.

Dude, a little tappet noise is normal on older engines, you're suffering from mild twincharger hysteria, you'll definitely know when it goes wrong!
