Year of Manufacture *: 04 reg Engine Size and Code *: 1.6 x16xe
Noisy rattle from engine
Diagnosed by another garage as tappet/follower, checked all tappets OK
Noise seemed to be coming from inlet manifold area, the manifold is alloy and splits in two, when separated the metal baffles or swirl plates as they might be known had come loose, re tightened
