oakvr 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Hi guys - quite new on here but been lurking for some time!I have a 95 corrado vr6 and just recently I have noticed a rattly noise but only between 2-3000 revs. You cannot hear the noise when idling or when booting it but if I cruise up to 3000revs its definitely there.The noise is coming from the drivers side of the engine as I have literally had my head in the footwell whilst driving trying to find the cause.Any help would be great - oh and the car has just passed 90K.Cheers :$ Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 The chains are gearbox side matey, but the sound could echo.Take it to kilokiller in Stoke if your from midlands, hes done a fair few timing chains for guys on here...give him a call - 07957204365// Edit Chairs??? i mean chains!

jezmoz 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 i would take a wild guess... that its the serpentine belt pulley, or manifold heatshield??. Chains are on the other side Link to post Share on other sites
oakvr 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Thanks for the quick responses guys - much appreciated.Its a relief to know that its not from the chains. Im pretty sure its coming from the o/s - was absolutely cacking it thinking about forking out for that job!I think youre onto something with the heatshield jezmoz - thinking about it now and it is that kind of noise.I will check it out.What a helpful place this is - I may be here for a while.thanks again Link to post Share on other sites
