Engine Tappet Sounds!! by Gallass(m): 7:50am On Aug 28, 2018 |
I have a 3.0L V6 engine in an INFINITI sedan. The engine tappets are knocking loudly. My kazeem warned that I shouldn't go and bother myself repairing it because I might end up messing things up. He suggested that I should be adding "oil treatment" anytime I change my engine oil. please I'll like to know if I should heed to his advice or if there is something that I can do about it. Thank you. Gazzuzz AutoelectNG radautoworks autojosh |

Gallass: Noise could be from 3 sources: Valve train noise( tappet noise as you call it) Bottom end/ crank shaft noise( usually distinct with a deep knocking noise that is prevalent / most noticeable when engine is raised to about 2500-3000 rpm Piston slap noise( due to ovality of cylinder wall, usually caused by overheating or manufacturing defect) all boils down to a worn engine that needs rebuilding or replacement. |
