Hello.
I am happy owner of Land Rover 4 2015, 3.0 V6 petrol, 56 000 miles. I purchased the car sometime ago ( small accident). I fixed it and I do have some noise in the engine, which is on the rightsize ( from driver view). This noise is not regular. Much stronger when the car is cold and on the higher engine speed, when car is warm, noice is more regular. It is like slight metallic buzzing. This noise still exists, if front belts are take out, so car works without compressor - so it it not compressor I assume.
It seems, but not 100%, that noise comes from the right side of the engine, I try to focus my first video on this area. Everyone is suggesting to replace whole timing chain kit ( upper chains and lower) without guaranty that noise will disappear. 🙂 As it is expensive I would be happy to hear fro the forum experts.
Additional suggestion I got - noise is coming from right side of the engine ( driver view) so it could be Camshaft Sprokets. Another suggestion was clearance on cylinders and pistons.
I am just wondering, what do you think after watching this videos?
-
- here engine is very cold , you will hear the not regular metallic buzzes
-
- her engine is lowering ( few minutes after starts) - and recorder a little bit from distance, what makes this noises more natural
Thank you Marcin
