SNAP!



Vid taken from inside the car as I was convinced it was a loose bolt. Mine has done this as well since purchased in August. Cambelt is due, just over 4 yoa on 28k.

Try and do a sound clip outside on idle as that's difficult to make out its the same problem. Yours might be a blown pcv.

Yeah, at first it was only audible when the engine was cold, but eventually it got to a point when it was pretty pervasive.

Video outside, excluding the squeakyness. The rusty bolt at the centre of the video, above the belt, is making all the noise, it seems to me. WHat is it?  :confused:
