bodhi03 New Member 15 Member For: 2y 11m 8d Posted 02/12/21 05:55 PM Share Posted 02/12/21 05:55 PM hey guys, I own a 06 turbo bf mk1 sedan, and have recently noticed some strange noises. when the car is warming up, a rattling can be heard and its audible when sitting inside the car, however a tick happens in the engine bay and said noise pretty much disappears. I also discovered now a rattling noise when chucking my transmission into reverse. any suggestions what these could be? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your cold ticking noise -> Exhaust manifold bolts loose Your engine bay rattle -> Lower turbo heat shield will be split at the rear mounting bolt on the back of the dump pipe Also while you're there check the hot side flange bolts on the turbo. They'll probably be loose as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
