Hey all
The wife's car has a noise coming from the engine, I have tried to pin point it with a screw driver to my ear and move it around the engine but I cannot locate it.
I was hoping that someone could listen to the video I put on youtube and tell me what it could be. A couple of suggestions to date have been broken valve spring, sticky lifter, worn or damage timing belt. I was going to try removing the spark plugs one at a time tonight and see what happens and then do a compression test on the weekend.

It doesn't sound very loud in the video but it actually makes the car sound like a diesel.
Thanks in advance
