I have some weird rattling noises coming from it seems under cam covers. This can be heard when the engine is reved up and let off and coming close to idle rpm. I had a look at the heat shield, but it seems fine. Any ideas? Oh, and I don't have any power loss or any other issues with it. ________________________________________ VW Bora TDi 130Ex Bianca White Gti6 Ex Team China Blue 6 Ex 406 Coupe 3.0 V6 |

Well it's sadly not what I expected. The car has lost one of the tensioners while I was driving and fell off. Cambelt was only done about 2000miles ago. So hoping the garage will sort it out for me.  ________________________________________ VW Bora TDi 130Ex Bianca White Gti6 Ex Team China Blue 6 Ex 406 Coupe 3.0 V6 |

Yes, if you have those symptoms, don't drive. Have it checked. ________________________________________ VW Bora TDi 130Ex Bianca White Gti6 Ex Team China Blue 6 Ex 406 Coupe 3.0 V6 |
