bottom end wont tap itll knock.

If its an x14xe i have come across a few trhat have had little ends gone that have sounded very tappety.

However it could well be wtaer pump/cambelt tensioner area.

we are never going to guess by a vauge description like that and to be honest it could be as simple as anything from knackered bearings to something as serious as a knackered crank or conrod. get the sump off and have a look is your best bet:thumbs:

its the type of thing you need to hear / see the engine to diagnose.
