#1: "Diesely" engine sound :( Author: omricn, Location: israelPosted: Tue Oct 21, 2014 7:14 am ---- Guys, for the past month or so my 206 has been producing a "diesely" engine sound, unlike the regular "purring" the xsi usually gave, now it sounds diesely,I can really hear the ticking of the engine building up while driving, especially when there is a wall next to the car and the engine noise bounces back to me, almost as if the pistons are not submerged in oil, but the oil levels are fine and the oil is clean.. also, while on idle the engine sounds just fine, also when revving in idle, which makes me think the issue is not actually related to oil.. any thoughts?

Leaking breather hose?
Valve clearances?
Timing belt starting to fray and catching on cover?
Broken piston ring?

I doubt it's a broken piston ring, as I've had that once in a vw polo, the noise it gave didn't stop when on idle..
I'll update tomorrow if we'll find anything, but don't let that stop you from trying to help me figure it out..
p.s @kandlbarrett - Thanks

I'll just live with it I guess..
