HI
I had the AA out to check my car, and i asked him if he would have a listen to my camper, i told him it sounded a bit on the noisey side. He listened and asked me if i had my cambelt changed recently, i told him that i had, he said that i needed to take it back and have it tweeked at the pump, will this reduce the noise level, as at the moment it sounds rattley.

Sorry, but you are about to receive lots of replies about malfunctioning crystal balls.
Lets assume that the AA man knows that VW didnt bother putting cambelts on petrol vans and you have a diesel.

I doubt anyone will be able to contribute anything sensible without knowing which engine you have, and a better description of the "noise"
Perhaps you could add a little video too.
