legvw 0 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Is the noise def coming from your tappets, not your injectors?? And what oil are you running, as it maybe too thin? Link to post Share on other sites

legvw 0 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Did you torque all the bolts down to there correct torque? Were your cams worn? Was the tapping there before? Link to post Share on other sites
