Tapping



  Fiesta ST2 MP215
now I need to ask about a problem, well not a major issue as such.
When my car is warm and after a good run etc, when being left to idle for about 10 seconds there is a constant but faint knocking

when you rev the engine up it goes away for a while then comes back, EVERYTHING bar the engine itself has been changed, pulleys, belts tensioners, pumps all by Rentec on the 09/05 and the noise was there before hand.

I have heard before it needed the oil changing, but i've done with that with Shell Helix 5w40, changed the filter which was a b**ch to get off and still it's there.

Has anyone had this? starting to think it's the manifold now, tried recording it but it's not loud enough, it's more noticeable inside the car that outside with the bonnet up, which leads me to Manifold and or gasket/bolts?

has done this for long ass time now but a mate rinsed me yesterday so I want it fixed.

wouldnt say tappets, it's louder inside the car than outside. and it's not constant once you go over say 2500RPM it goes away then comes back after 10 seconds of idle.
