hodges75 10 Posted September 5, 2015 has anyone got a spare engine for sale, just fired her up yesterday and sounded like a black cab, bottom end knock( absolutely gutted) :scratch::mad2: has been running rough as for 2 weeks with it hunting on idle, changed everything, air flow meter, lambda sensor, plugs, leads, ISV, fuel pipes, breather hose, then the little f.....r goes and repays me with another problem, the joys of owning a VR, does sound absolutely mean though when running right ( if only ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 5, 2015 They do tend to knock when cold especially when not run for a while. Have you tried heavier oil as a temporary measure? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hodges75 10 Posted September 5, 2015 not tried different oil, but was running okish until the dreaded knock yesterday, definitely think its serious,cheers anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
