checking the dephaser ?



  Astra H vxr
hi people - what it is ive had my car 3weeks now and it seemed to run perfect ticked over very smoothly ect... but since the last few days i get a funny ticking / slight knocking noise ? but the thing is its coming and going ? one minute its not there and the next it is? also seems to run abit dodgy on idle at times ? and the engine sounds abit louder ? but this only happens on and off :S when i rev the car the noise seems to go with the revs like a tik tik tik tik tik tik goes faster when reving it abit? ive tried putting my head under the car and in the engine bay to find the noise but its not really noticeable outside ? only can hear it mainly inside louder but coming from engine? :/ but can hear a slight noise when engines open on accasions :( ive searched about ticking noises ect and people say the dephaser could be on the way out or gone, but if that was the case would it be a constant tick or not ? also how could i go about checking the dephaser ? (not to keen with the 182 engine so try not to confuse me too much lol) cheers peoples :)

ps the knock noise might not evan be a knock just me being picky on that i think,
