not to scare u or nowt but mine sounded the same apart from the exhaust sound when my chain had slipped. like i say not to scare u but i would say the timing chain. what mileage u done mate.
Hey. It's done 85k. Alot of rattle from exhaust
i would say that the chain is knackered mate at that mileage if not been changed yet. like i say not entirely sure about ur exhaust though.
Have you checked your connections/joints on the exhaust system i.e. cat/downpipe and downpipe/centre section as if they are a bit loose it can sound a bit like what you're describing, especially with the exhaust rattle. Check those out first before you start going down the route of timing chain investigations as I doubt if it would be that with the symptoms you're describing.
hi mate mine sounded like a tracotor the other day where the turbo bolts to the manifold 2 bolts i fallen out i still have a ittle exhasust ratle now but when driving engine is so qite again
and at that age and mileage i would have a poke around the exhaust heat shields ...possibley fractured on its mounts ....one of 4 under the vehicle
by the time mine went at the beginning of the month i had removed all 4
0-Large smile ......every time it's driven
told u not to let me worry u.lol
