cliffcoggin Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Sorry Thodoris, but even at maximum volume the sound is quiet and I hear nothing unusual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cliffcoggin Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Yes I can hear it now and it sounds horrible, though I can not positively identify the noise. Possibilities to examine are: loose timing chain (if you have one), broken exhaust mounting, worn bearing in alternator or water pump or power steering pump, worn turbo (if you have one). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
