    Default vt stalling at running temp

    hey ive been looking everywhere online and cant find anything that helps the car has a knock but only when on running temp. and then when it goes to idle it just stalls i can see a bit of oil loss as well the knock is coming from the inlet manifold or the rockers but the lifters has been check and tested just had a service and waterpump and thermostat replaced.
    PLEASE HELP

    how long does it run before stalling? does it restart easily again after stalling? do the fans come on at all?

    Checked the error codes?
    Could be CAS.

    it does not throw any codes or engine lights out at all would the knocking be caused by a faulty CAS
