#1: Weird engine noises Author: DiddlesDee, Location: ScarboroughPosted: Thu Oct 13, 2011 6:47 am ---- Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone could diagnose what's making the strange clunking noise coming from my engine. I've put a soundcloud link to a clip i recorded on my phone.
The knocking speeds up and slows down in line with revs too, I've had some people say an oil change would maybe sort it? I'm a total noob at anything like this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

#3: Re: Weird engine noises Author: DiddlesDee, Location: ScarboroughPosted: Sun Oct 16, 2011 9:52 am ---- It's a 1.1 petrol

#5: Re: Weird engine noises Author: Antknee, Location: ManchesterPosted: Sun Oct 16, 2011 10:04 am ---- Sounds a bit similar to when my crank pulley/tensioner went... does it quiet down when you rev it?
#6: Re: Weird engine noises Author: DiddlesDee, Location: ScarboroughPosted: Sun Oct 16, 2011 10:08 am ---- It's around the 65000 miles mark I think off the top of my head. There is a belt squeaking somewhere too as well as the clunking fluttery noise

#9: Re: Weird engine noises Author: DiddlesDee, Location: ScarboroughPosted: Thu May 03, 2012 11:40 am ---- I've just been nosing around under the bonnet again and this noise is still bugging me.. I recently had the belt and tensioner changed and I'm still getting this noise.. I'll post a pic of where it sounds like it's coming from
