Re: Woe is me! Death rattle?

Glad you got it sorted but I am surprised at your comments regarding the T25 what you have is an old vehicle and the bay is even older . The part you needed is not normally a part that breaks so its going to be hard to find but you got one in the end . If you want trouble free motoring buy a T4 or T...

Re: Woe is me! Death rattle?

they open and close the valves and are hydraulic i.e. are adjusted by oil pressure . When they are fitted you fill them with oil. When they get very hot or are left for a while they lose the pressure and the valve clearance gets to large and you get the horrendous rattle I think you are describing ....

Re: Woe is me! Death rattle?

Re: Woe is me! Death rattle?

Hard to tell coz im not there and cant hear it but ive had bottom ends go on these engines and they are more of a rumble than a clunk. You can get recon engines they are about £1300 .00 for a...

Re: Woe is me! Death rattle?

I wouldnt worry to much think you will find its the tappets . If its a hard mechanical rattle and the van hasnt run for a few days . My van does it and its very worrying. But a run sorts it out and hey presto no knocking noise. I gave my van a oil change and a flush . It does it a lot less now. The ...
