Strange ticking noise on '06 Gti. Only on idle
doylebros:
If this rattle appears once up to running temperature don't rule out the cam chain tensioner.

Guys, it took some time, mostly because my mech is flat out these days, but gt this sorted recently. Changed the belt and tensioner. Alt was fine. Rattle gone now. :D
Did a forte flush and filled with millers. She sounds great again except the standard chain sound. Fk knows when i can get around to this, but 46k so not worried yet.
I need a new lower engine mount as The oem rubber has split. Can i get the stock gti one from tps, or does anyone know of uprated better versions? Is there any other reason the mount could have gone on a 46k other then a good/hard life (must stay positive)

So it was the tensioner after all that :signLOL:
superpro dog bone insert, power flex or a vibra technics mount :smiley:

Thanks r5,
I took your advice on the engine/tranny mounts and ordered a pair aswell. The order is fked up as the tossers didnt even have them in stock and still let me order them. Long story short she turned 10 this weekend and all i could do was try n wash her between snowshowers. But she does look good :D
r5gtt:
I know weather's been crazy like all four seasons on one :signLOL:
Glad you got one part sorted out at the least.
Tell me about it, someone :stupid: people out there just wanting your money and then having you wait and wait and wait ff* what a holes. :slap:
Did you order the vibra technics ones?. :jumping: and so jealous :-(
