Golf MK5 GTI - Tappets

(1/1)

briniuk:
Hello,

The tappets on my Golf gti 48k seems quite loud - whats the process of quietening them down!

I presume it would have to go into a garage for the old oil to get squeezed out??

Garth:
As far as I can tell, they're all like this regardless of age.

The solution is to either add more sound proofing, or turn up the music  :grin:

titchy:
wynns make a product to flush the tappetts out get it it at any motor factors

Gene Hunt:
Think it's down to the ''direct'' injection, they all make a bit of a ticking sound.
