Help identify engine rattle, w115
Hey Folks,
I'm looking at a w115 from out of state, i'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on what this engine rattle might be? It's been too long for me to tell if this is a normal OM616 diesel noise or something else? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ofs2xbyiMg Thanks! |
Cool car. Is that a timing chain slapping around possibly? Since it isn't consistent.
|
Did the sound change once the engine was warmed up?
|
Just sounds like injectors nailing to me.
|
if you blip the throttle and hear a slap, its the chain, otherwise sounds like nailing. I wouldn't run that engine long without first rebuilding the injectors.
|
Turns out the mechanical cooling fan was the culprit.
|
Nice! That's one of the best things it could've been. Enjoy the car
