I'll do it my way(not)
Ok little update.
Bought a car. 940 hpt auto Got it for a song. Bit I think it's screwed. There is a really weird noise coming from engine. It goes a little bit like this.... Remember when children could actually go out and play without constant supervision? Well when I was growing up we used to put cards in our wheels and a peg on the fork leg and the sound made us think we were on motorbikes( ok I did grow up a stones throw from Brands Hatch). My new Volvo sounds just like that.Yeah funny. Not for me. What is it peeps? It's not the Turbo, that pulls like a train. Exhaust is blowing, I know that much any ideas? Hoping it won't cost an arm and a leg, as I'm legless at the moment. Any help,would be good. Cheers. |

It might be the exhaust manifold leaking on just one cylinder or a crack round the back of it where you can't see. A loose or missing spark plug would make a similar but louder noise but the car wouldn't be running properly.
Have a listen to where the noise id coming from (roughly) with the bonnet up and give us a few more clues. I was more then a bit confused as you have stuck this in the wanted section, I've got some funny (or not) noises you can have if you want them ! |

Manifold to exhaust pipe gasket leak can make these odd ticking noises. Have a check with your hand after a cold start. Don't try this with a hot engine.....

Tappets out of spec on one cylinder?
Not a big job but quite technical. My last engine ticked massively but I never fixed it, quite liked it really. It died of a broken water hose underneath.
