  4. No everything with the car is perfect apart from this worrying noise 😔
  5. Thanks for the advice Dave, I have been told the car has actually got timing chain which is expected to last the life of the car. I’m guessing it have become a bit slack might just need to be retentioned. It’s odd though because the noise did get worse over a period of time it seemed to appear over a very short period of time. or of course it could be something completely unrelated to the timing chain which. The noise is coming from the left hand side of engine bay close to what looks like auxiliary drive belts. If anyone out there has experienced this before please advise. 😬
