I've been having a problem with my VP for a while now, and while it's improved, its still a long way from being fixed. There is a loud knocking noise coming from the engine when i pull up and idle, (sounds like a drum kit under there!!) Now one guy said it was the gearbox mount- did that, and no difference. Someone else (these are mechanic's by the way) told me it was the engine mounts. Replaced these, and it made it better. It dosent make the niose anymore when idling, but if you take your foot off the brake and the car (auto) moves forward the niose comes back, when you accelerate, it stops. Now someone else is telling me it could be a burnt valve... I dont know what to do because i can't keep throwing money at it and not always getting results..??Had anyone else had a similar problem. The niose is hard to describe in words obviously, but a knocking sound, or beat, every 1/2 second, so it's a fairly fast knocking niose if that helps:bang:
