A little bit Oooh Errrr
Hi I have a noise that is concerning me
UK VAN T1N OM611
At idle I get a rattle type noise
it sounds as though it coming from the engine
it disappears when revved even slightly above idle
there is some extra vibration through the van (occasionally when accelerating from idle it will wobble)
pushing clutch in at idle does not change (other than thrust bearing noise is reduced)
noise seems to be coming from middle of engine at back
cannot be heard from outside but is loud and noticable from inside
noisiest with head right under dash in centre
is this likely to be dual mass flywheel issue?
I have had some chirping noises at heavy throttle
and fuel consumption is still terrible (it always has been since i got it)
sometimes it seems to be less when engine is hot
may be louder with front of van facing downhill??
It isnt always there but most of the time
Tried to include as much info as can think of
any ideas appreciated
any input on ruling out or in flywheel too
what is on back of engine?
engine mount in that area?
exhaust mounts?
thanks
