Title: Engine noise. Not exhaust. Help!
Post by: Tommmm on 18 March 2012, 10:47:57

I'm geting a noise (a sort of whirring, clanking) from it seems under the car at the front when I decelerate/take my foot off the accelerator.  I thought it might be a worn exhaust, but took it in yesterday and the exhaust system is fine.  Engine oil is up to required level.  It's a 2.2 TD diesel engine.  2002.  Never had any problems before, and it's been regularly serviced.  Can anybody help?  Many thanks.
