As some of you may know from the org I had a mobile mechanic replace my headgasket last week.
New Belts, new gaskets, Magnatec used for an oil change and pump replaced..
Before the change it was pretty tappety for say the first minute or so of driving the it totally quietened up. I figured since it was 65k K-Series this was normal and after a good service it would be better.
I spoke to the mobile mech and was advised to try some wynns and see if it sorted it out but no avail.
Its been about 350-400 miles since the change now so I guess that any new oil would be "bedded in" and I shouldnt have this noise.
Im a tad miffed as its sounds worse than when the gasket was shot.
What could it be?
Decided to justify keeping the TF as it was "Only £600" to get the work done and if it gave me another year or so I would be happy...
I do know my PreCAT lambda is shot. must of shifted during the HG and was touching he exhaust mani its frayed through and I have another one on order.
Would a messed up Lambda reading cause injectors to go loopy and click like mad? Ive had the cover off and driven about and just cannot pinpoint the noise.
No error codes other than my P0170 lambda code.
Would too much oil cause it to click? Its at MAX on dipstick.
Ideas people?
