Noise after engine build
« on: July 10, 2016, 05:28:01 pm »
I just got my car back on Friday
Golf Gti with an axx engine code
It went in for a bad habit smoking problem
So I bought all genuine parts from Tps
Head set with bolt
Piston rings
Bearings
Valve stems ,
And gaskets
Sent the turbo to get reckoned and found it has a crack
Across the waste gate ,so it was scrap.
I bought a new one not a recon
I sent the head to the machine shop for a clean,
Guides and stems
The machine shop built the head up for me
The chain and tensioner was new in April this year ,
Anyway got my car back Friday and it's noisey
Sounds like the chain is rattling sound like a 2 stroke chain saw
The cars drives perfect no fault codes or lights on the dash
On the bonus side no more smoke and got 37mpg
Which I have never seen on this car before
Has anybody had this before ,
Can I claim of Vw for faulty parts

That's good to know, hopefully you'll get it sorted out but sad to hear the chain or tensioner may have failed  :surprised:
