Well I've just bought a bianca 6 with an unidentified engine rattle. It's had new valves and lifters fitted by the dealer which didn't solve the initial tapping noise it had and has gone on to develop a loud rattle that increases with rpm before it was parked up. It hasn't snapped a belt or jumped the timing so no idea why you would change valves.any thoughts on the likely culprit? edit: this probably belongs in engines |

I had a loose plug that sounded aweful but I fear you've bent valves if pug were looking to cure a tap I bet it's either thrown a belt in the past or the heads been off for some reason and a valve was bent upon refitting and the pug dealer didn't change all the bent valves and corresponding guides.________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |

I wouldn't put anything past a dealer, but the receipt does say 16 valves, guides and lifters cam belt etc. It's obviously done a belt at some point as noone in their right mind is going to change valves for the sake of it. The noise isn't a tap anymore, it's a full blown rattle that starts the moment it's fired up and seems to come from down low bigbadbowen wrote: Damaged guide or bent valve You'd hope not given the above work. mocinim wrote: Puggered wrote: mocinim wrote: Check all your fittings bolts etc probablt something simple not refitted correctly Best put a vid up if you can bud it's 400 miles away Thats some f**king noise if you can hear it 400 miles away I have acute earing  |

Yep, needs head removing and further work - that's a top end tapper all day long.Can also tell by the speed of the tap which end of the engine it's coming from. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Yep. As I said earlier, that got a bent valves and/or fooked guides. So it definitely needs it's head off. ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |
