I know this is a long shot but.....
I have a slight ticking noise coming from roughly where the alternator is, (I'll post a video later this week so you can here it) it only happens for 2-3mins at the start when cold but goes away, my first thought was the valves but its not tapping! And the noise is definetaley from the side, if the alternator is goosed does it click? Oil levels are fine too, I thought maybe check the oil pump and see if that's goosed but don't really know where to start, thought I'd check with the experts first....
Any replys would be great!
Thanks in advance!
