Dodgy Engine Noise * Youtube Video Included*

[Josh@Renparts]

Noticed this today on my ph1. Now its been water Damaged but its been fine. Slight hissing noise from belt since its been repaired (think thats the tensioner on the aux belt) then it suddenly started making this noise. In real life its more like a flapping belt, it sounds like its coming from the cambelt area. (can't really hear it at idle)

Any Ideas Folks?

Does sound like a flapping belt. Take the mount off and see if you can see anything. Otherwise it could be big ends(my mates 5 sounded that bad lol)

 

[Josh@Renparts]

not took the top mount off yet, but it actually sounds more like its coming from the engine top end.

get the mount off mate, its only 3 bolts and 1 nut!

Sounds similar to the dephaser but the noise usually goes away with revs. I'd deffo check the belts first.

This had dephaser problems and has a video to compare your noise with which led to disaster, so probably best get it sorted asap

had the cover/mount off and its the same, sounds like its coming from the centre of the Engine on the top end. Im guessing its a lifter or something.

its really hard to tell from the video, but i can hear a belt slap and a bottom end knock in the vid

Could be quite a few things really, I think investigative surgery will be required.

theres no bottom end knock, i know what im listening for. And no belt slap as i had the cover off and was watching it. Its top end related. Like an extremely loud lifter or something. Either way top end needs to be taken off.
