Anyone ever had a rattle just after cambelt.waterpump change. Car felt great then after say 15 miles turned off . Got back in car started with a really noisy diesel like noise / rattle . Turned off immediately then back on and was fine . Any ideas or anyone experience anything similar .

I used to get some sort of clanging/tapping noise. Used to go at the slightest touch of the accelerator though, same with yours?
