Knocking V8

(1/4) > >>

denzil:
Hello again folks
 I ran the Disco up to temp on the drive  yesterday once its hot it starts to knock ,I think from mid/top of engine at tick over [750/800 revs] ,increase the revs to 1000/1200 the knocking appears to stop or perhaps I just cant hear it?. No problems when cold I changed the oil and filter made no difference .Do you think this is this the dreaded V8 liner problem ?.

Cam followers????????????? :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Range Rover Blues:
If it were the liners I'd expect it to be using water.  Like Bogie said I'd be looking at followers.

denzil:
Hi warmed the car and let it tick over for a while yesterday[I am in the middle of changing the brakes],the engine now appears to be playing a tune it was a regular tap, then it stopped for a couple of seconds then started again.

Regards Doug

JIMBOBLY:
if it keeps stopping the knocking noise now and then,i'd put money on it being the followers too.
