Hello folks,
Stopped my ute for about 10 minutes. Had been driving sensibly in a mix of highway/town driving for about 15 minutes prior. Started it again and there was a horrible rattling grinding noise. Shut it down and had a look under the bonnet, couldn't see anything so started it again and moved it from the spot where it was. It didn't make the noise that time.
On the ground there were a couple of small pieces of alloy about 5-7mm across and about 3-5mm thick. These bits of metal dropped under where the rear of the engine would have been and were very clean, not traces of oil/grease or clutch dust.
Anyone care to offer an opinion on what the deceased part may be?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Glen.
