Nah I understand. I've been told it could be something to due with the spark plugs? Or something around that area. As for all, dodgy spark plugs would cause it to miss fire on start up? | |

Yeah, but I don't fully understand engines. The Zetec engines are prone to burning oil, which it did by the previous owner as I always checked the oil in hers. From what I gathered, one of the pistons is basically wobbling in the engine, as the piston ring has gone. | |

Oh, so if it's fucked, then why is it fucked? Surely they didn't just say it's fucked? They must of said something was wrong? | |

How do you mean? Her knocking gets faster when you put the throttle down, it has been checked by various garages and is basically knackered. She doesn't drive it. It's sitting on her drive till she can afford to get it fixed. | |

quote: cheers mate... it's nearer to the centre of the engine. When I rev it the knocking gets faster. Just had to nip out for work, and the car didnt start, it tried twice.. Then when I put the bonnet up and turned the key to try again it started :boggle: first time it's done that ? :(:( | |

i work at a peugeot dealer, just had a word with a mechanic and he seems to think that is probably your camshaft followers or camshaft seat. is the noise more to one side? or evenly throught the head? | |
