SakGlanzaV Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) hi guys basically my 4efte glanza engine(totally stock) turns over fine and starts up ok. No engine fault lights are shown on the speedo. In neutral the car sounds spot on how it should. however it starts to make a knocking noise after 2000rpm. Any ideas of what it could be? Has anyone else experienced this? Edited July 25, 2013 by sakabr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rinseep82 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 You sure it's not a gear box knock?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SakGlanzaV Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 100% sure it's not from the gearbox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rinseep82 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Is it after 2000 rpm when moving along And in gear or does it do it at 2000rpm stationary ?? Any vids or anything mate it's hard to diagnose without hearing it really Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SakGlanzaV Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 it's at 2000 rpm stationary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Engine/gearbox mount possibly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) Does it do it in neutral over 2k Edited July 25, 2013 by MARC MOSS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Lol sorry I just read the other threads lol I just saw the question and replied without looking Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SakGlanzaV Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 my local mechanic says its the bottom end(big end bearings) he's unsure so I thought i'd get a few suggestions from you guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 post a video up if you can. might make it a little easier to figure out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Does it do it cold? The first engine did this and it was a weird light kinda rattle, ended up being a small end Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 does the noise speed up as the revs increase? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SakGlanzaV Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 does the noise speed up as the revs increase? yes mate the noise speeds up as the revs increase Quote Link to post Share on other sites
