water pumps can cause this noise too if bearing gone.

First of all what engine is in your 206?
Could be tappets, or a worn belt plus a few other things.

Where will i find it.
How will i know if it is different the crank pulley

They are a common known fault on the 2.0 hdi's
#9: Re: Rattling or tapping noise Author: StuBannerman, Location: AberdeenPosted: Mon Nov 22, 2010 11:30 am ---- so for it and be fitted was £130
The sound does sound louder when ear was nearer the front wheel.
