Please ensure they have all the parts necessary for the repair BEFORE they begin taking it apart, otherwise your car will be unavailable for a long period of time. The actual repair should take 2-3 days and there should be an additional day for road testing.

Thought I'd dig the thread back up with an update. Got a puma-case registred and the car went in for almost 1 week in the workshop. Engine-out-job indeed. Timing-chain and all related parts, guiding rails, tensioners etc changed.
Sounds right now from the outside .. sounds like a dieselengine should. Bit annoying though that a I have another noise heard from inside the cabin now that was not there before. Long story short; 1. Car went in for standard first service. At this point there was this outside-swish-swish-noise from the engine, but a clean engine-noise from within the cabin. The workshop acknowledged there was something wrong indeed but could not fix it instantly, instead puma-case was registered and car booked for a new appointment. 2. When I picked my car up from service I noticed this new sound from within the cabin. At somewhat higher revs pressing the accelerator gave a new noise I had not heard before. Figured they might have messed about a bit with the chain/tensioners in an attempt to solve the initial problem and I didn't care since car was going in for the major puma-case-work in a couple of weeks. Thought both noises probably go away then. 3. Car went in for the puma-case-job and when I picked up the car the swish-swish noise from the outside was gone but the other sound from within the cabin was still there. Don't know how to describe it but engine sounds awful when revving/accelerating, like a loud ticking-noise from around 2000rpm and up. Haven't bothered them with it. Don't know if I will. Don't have the time and energy right now. |

Would you call it a raspy noise as the revs get to the higher end just before changing up? I had a couple of loaners while my car was in for the chain etc and a 114d with 300 miles on the clock sounded exactly the same so I stopped worrying about this noise. Keep an ear on it but I don't think it's a problem and you will get used to it eventually.

Could aswell be a loose screw or some forgotten tool vibrating, I haven't tried listening with the hood open while revving. Could be anything, I haven't made much effort to localize it yet. |
