bertonedan my 2.2 sounds like a diesel when i first start it, then after 10 mins or so of driving, the noise seems to disappear. Bought the car 2 months ago with 43k on - 2001 coupe. In history of the car, at 40k had new timing tensioner. Any ideas? Dan
vocky get it looked at ASAP if it's the chain and it breaks you will be looking at a bill for £1500 :shock:
bertonedan yeah this is at idle so do you reckon its the chain? if so how much would VX charge to fix it?
vocky they should of replaced the timing chain kit, not just the tensioner it will snap very soon, get it trailered to a garage 🙁
