AUM tappy noise coming from injectors?
« on: 22 May 2011, 17:57 »
Thought it was the belts at first but if I get my ear close can hear a kind of tapping noise coming from the 2nd injector. Is this common? What could it be? Cheers :)

Mine sounds like that and it's a 1.8T I thought it was tappets at first/hydraulic lifters, but I think it's the injectors Workin and with the engine covers on you can badly hear it, I wouldn't worry about it.
