I installed my rebuilt driveshaft/guibo/centre bearing and did the timing belt and water pump/thermostat plus belts on Saturday after work. Timing belt tensioner was shot but fortunately I had a new one. I've never seen that kind of slack on a belt, let alone a cambelt. It also seems my home alternator rebuild did the job - its whisper quiet! Do ya think this pump was on its way out too? Never showed a sign of overheating but I don't think it would have taken long. I'll need to flush the system a couple times after seeing the amount of crud in there.

Not my video but does anyone have a clue what might be causing this noise? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFB7AYctRVI Only happens once the car has warmed up, around 2k rpm this raspy noise begins. I've adjusted the valves and tried a few different oils, although not a fully synthetic one...can't see how that would do it but I'm willing to try anything at this point. The car runs/drives great cold or hot, just makes an awful racket when its hot.

Lightbulb Out posted:Do you still have the mechanical fan installed? Yes, but I have pulled it off briefly thinking it was that but the problem persisted. I can live with the rattle - it's just when I'm cruising at 80km/h () or above with a constant rpm the rattle turns into a very loud ticking noise. Slightly different sound to the rocker tick, I can tell the two apart now.
