petrolhead 0 Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 My Golf has got a tapping noise coming for the top of the engine when it has warmed up. I bought it from a mate who had the head refurb'ed. He said that the company that refurb'ed it had put the tappets back in the wrong order - hence the tapping noise.Are the tappets adjustable and if so, can it be done with the head still on the car??Thanks for any help.
