What the heck is this? On cold startup I hear a non-rhythmic, not RPM related
clop clop noise from down low on the engine. I thought it was water cavitating
in the jackets? but water level is full. Not a bearing clatter I have heard
before, as it does not change with RPM. Thought about the timing chain
trensionner being off, but this is not a light noise I would expectf from the
tensioner. Once engine is warming up = a minute or so, no more noise, nor is
there such noise on warm start up. I sure hope this is nothing serious, but
need wisdom of the list to confirm -
Thanks for any thoughts you ahve. PS the car runs great - no problems with
performance or reliability.
Thanks
