Right My 1.9TDi lump is on 170k going fine but is in need of some TLC, It's sounding very tappy from 1 or 2 tappets.
Got a number of options don't know what to do really
Basicially, can these tappets be shimmed? If so is it worth it or rull recon of head.
2nd the Cam? thats not included in recon, so will have to see how worn it is, any ideas how much for a new/recon one?
If i get the head off i'll check the condition of the barrel/piston.
New oil helps with the Tapping and only when fresh quiten's it right down, but don't really want to go doing oil changes every month!
Any help much appreciated, just my diesel sounds like a wreck with some belt squeaking and the tapping!
