loud ticking noise
hi guys, having owned my motor for a week i think my problems have started, started off with a sticking starter motor that would leave me stranded just about everywere, fan stopped working,oil leak from turbo return, heaters stopped working, electric windows stopped all of the above have been sorted with either a fuse or replacement part.
as i said ive had my motor for a week done a nice 450miles with no running problems, had a oil leak from the turbo oil return pipe i replaced it and got a steam clean to get rid of the mess that was left behind, parked the car up overnight went to start it the following morning started fine warmed up oil light came on first a couple of flashes then stayed on parked the car up checkd oil level everything was fine, i have now replaced oil pressure switch and it seems ok, but while driving it seems to me like its misfireing but not on idle, also there is more of a ticking noise coming from the top end the engine was reasonably quiet before, could this be a sticking tappet? any help will be great cheers sam.
