What’s this rattling in the engine?

Big lumps of metals and spanners. Including servicing and fluids.

What’s this rattling in the engine?

Post by ScienceBoy »

So this has happened all of a sudden. Fluids look ok. No oil slicks. But this loud rattle from the engine has started.

Anyone able to diagnose from this quick video before I get up to my armpits in it?

Just realised I can’t post videos…
