BogMonster Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Are you sure it isn't just cr&p in the fan belt? It can make squeaks, ticks, chirrups, scratchy noises and God knows what else that sounds much more serious than it is. My new 110 is doing just that at the moment - a loud noise that really sounds quite mechanical and serious in nature but I know it is just the fan belt!

lynall Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Fuel return is from number one injector down to pump On side of pump is two screws one is max revs other is idle screw, maybe throttle cable to tight. Ticking noise could be the vac pump mounted behind the injector pump. Lynall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatback90 Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 no 1 injector is nearest the rad? so its normal for the bulkhead one to be blocked? the cable is not tight its set the same as my other 300tdi. i never thought of the vac pump ticking hmmmm that would explain the slightly under par brakes!
