cossie noise
a mate of mine went to view a 4x4 saphire cossie
he said when it started up it was quite as anything
but prob about 1 min in to running theres a funny noise he couldn,t describe it could it be knocking as i thought they only done it when they are cold,could it be tappets?
told him not to buy it until i can can go view
any help would be great

some 4x4's do/did still suffer from the dreaded term of piston slap!
does the noise go after it's been run up to temp/warmed up? what's the mileage? it could be either the above or cam followers? or even the grade of oil IS the wrong type!
