Its really hard to tell, its definitely coming from the engine though.is it coming from the head or the bottom end? to check the timing you gotta light up the crank pulley with the marks on the side cover and then make sure that the cams are ligned up properly too
Yeah, you have to remove the valve cover to check the timing on the cams and on the crank pulley theres a few lines on the pulley that you have to lign up with the raised arrow mark on the timing belt coverIts really hard to tell, its definitely coming from the engine though.
To check the marks to see if its lined up, do I just remove the case thats over the cam gears?
Yes oil is fine, I'm past due on a change though.oil level is good and full?
And where is the noise coming from as stated above...
if you said its pretty loud and from overrevving it might be a rod knock, does the car sound like a diesel?Yes oil is fine, I'm past due on a change though.
The sound is from the engine, I assume from the head because when you open the hood, its pretty loud.
@Jabes, I'll have to check that out. Thanks,
/e
Any other possibilities?
Nope, its not that deep of a tone.if you said its pretty loud and from overrevving it might be a rod knock, does the car sound like a diesel?
hmmm is it a stock header cause if it is then it might be the heatshields, if not id check the valve clearence to make sure thats not causing the rattling and when you change the oil check for any metal shavings in itNope, its not that deep of a tone.
