Post by: Ucefkh on March 20, 2023, 06:22:45 am

Hello guys,

My mk5 GTI BPY engine 2007 has been rebuilt and almost a year now, i had this rattling noise from the top of the engine around the cams..



Everything is forged besides the cams and rocker arms(they were not changed) so i have been struggling to locate or find cause of this rattling noise!



Please check the videos(one is a cold start and second is a warm one after a drive!

Please help!



Should I change the cams? Rocker arms? Lifters?

New chain! New belt, timing checked with the metal piece you do timing from ecs tuning! All checks out

What would it be?
