hey guys my engine has started to make a fairly loud knocking noise, it happened right after a little powerskid (private property ofcourse) and after a lot of searching im still stumped
it happens from 2000-2500 rpm and i can hear it continue well into high 3000rpm and after that i cant hear it over my exhaust when driving, and im not too keen to try it to a higher rpm incase it makes things worse. it happens with the clutch pedal down so im 99% sure its coming from the engine. also, engine is quite reluctant to turn over when hot
extra info i thought id add in;
219 000k's motor. I have 1.98 ratio rockers, but ive had the cover off both sides, checked the torque and looked around all seems ok, noise is no less or no more with the rocker cover off. oil was changed as was filter november or december last year since then has done probably 6-8000 km's on that oil, car has a slight oil leak but the oil looks fine. two diesel mechanics have told me big end and one of them said posssibly injector aswell
thats all i think i can add any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated
