2003 MR2 Roadster
I have had my 53 plate 172 for a couple of months now and don't drive it hard. I am paranoid about engine noise at the best of times but noticed yesterday that all of a sudden the top end of the engine sounds slightly rattly/tappety. It only has 29500 miles on the clock (with full service history) so should this be happening?..The last service was in Jan so I was wondering if I should get it serviced now rather than wait til next Jan. The car pulls fine with smooth delivery so I am not overly worried, however I went to overtake someone today and found myself holding back as it sounded rattly at 4k on the tacho.
Am I just been paranoid?
Would a full oil flush/change to fully syth help?
