knock noise vr v6!

[XeKToReX]

Hey guys,

I've got a fairly loud knocking noise coming from somewhere under the passenger side rocker cover on my vr v6.. It ticks at idle, speeds up as revs go up, and then at a certain point, goes away until you back off and sounds ticks when you get off the revs, Ive got the rocker cover off and rotated the motor by hand to see if i could see anything weird, and i cant see anything, my mate is gonna take a look tomorrow, but any ideas would be good for me, cheers!

Joel.
