Need help
Audi a4 3.0v6 had big problems, firstly when i brought the car there was a loud noise which developed after a few days. whoever fixed it before didnt use mineral fluid for the power steering which ended the life of the power steering pump. then the oil pump packed in, all within 3 weeks of my buying the car. iv had both pumps changed, and the engine checked over. but now im getting a loud tappet noise from the left handside head, it seems to be coming from the top of the blck. iv just added hydralic cleaner fluid to it to see if it helps. i wanted to know if any1 has had the same problems?? im suspecting that one of the tappets has worn out. i dnt wanna be ripped by any more mechanics as it cost me £1800 to sort the pumps. Please any1 got some good solid advice
