Hi guys was driving home from town today and overtook a car was only on one of the conserative tunes and not thrashing pulled up at the lights and can now hear a noise.

Sounds very similar to extractor gasket leak or a louder version of injector clicking but it is neither of these.

The car has a aps phase 3 kit 4 speed auto with only 40 on the clock and does not get driven very hard, seems to be running fine and not missing or anything abnormal.

Seems to be coming from the top end somewhere maybe someone can shed some light on the subject.

Exhaust bolts come to mind instantly.

They are well known for coming loose and falling out.

Yeah mate, id be wipping the heatshields off and re-torquing all the exhaust manifold bolts, also check the turbo to manifold bolts also.

Have checked everything and have found the noise coming from the top end somewhere.

Going to lift of the rocker cover on the weekend have been told could possibly be the

lash adjusters.
