same with mine, i can only hear them if im not flooring it, but they aren't that loud on mine, can only really hear them as the engine is going down the revs. as opposed to accelerating. | |

about £7/8 each from autovaux. Its unlikely they will all go together. Whats the mileage? They can be removed and cleaned quite sucessfully. It could be down to something else like low oil pressure. If you remove the oil filler cap with the engine running does oil spray everywhere? Has it happened suddenly? | |
