Pronounced diesel clatter!?

Have you ever heard a playback from anything in an engine bay??? It's like an orgy of f00kn skeletons in a biscuit tin....lol
I get people over the phone saying listen to this Ray and I say to them what I've just said to you. I've even used the spider mic but it still doesn't give me a proper clue.

a long screwdriver. handle to ear takes a bit of beating. Favourite phone call my car not running right whats wrong with it how much to fix lol

Done the screwdriver thing, even done the stethoscope thing too, nothing at tickover, it's driving from 1500 -2000 rpms, it's almost like a cammy VX Astra but not all the time, which is confusing ,if it was mechanical it would do it all the time but it just doesn't do on demand unless you're driving it and know when to bring it on

from what ive read on here (organist57 crd tapping noise) sound like pipes on bulkhead behind engine. but hey ave been wrong before. lol

Dan says he sorted that out but I'll have a look tomorrow and clad everything I can see but just to help me sort it quicker any pics of said pipe?.

[royliz]

there is cant find at moment seems to be aircon and other pipes near turbo. in earlier post Dan said he cured noise may foam worn through!

[UK CHRYSLER 300C]

Yeah could be, won't know till tomorrow, not sure if he said fixed or checked now but it's given me food for thought, cheers

I regularly check my insulated pipes to make sure they have shifted back to rub on the cover, and all is still ok. Ray, looking at the engine (cover fitted) from the front of the car you will see a pipe covered in insulation drivers side bulk head a few cm away from the corner of the engine cover, you will also see previous wear marks on that cover.

Dan said cured it on organist57 post anyway enjoy your noise hunting.lol
