Hi All
Was doing a coolant change on my 2004 Panda 1.2 Dynamic yesterday, and while running the engine to make sure it was circulating, I noticed what sounds like a fast clicking / tapping noise coming from the area where the air cleaner assembly is attached to the engine, which I'm presuming is the throttle body. It doesn't happen when the car is idling, but only when the revs are increased, and to me it sounds like the butterfly valve in the throttle body is opening and closing very fast.
Is this normal?
Took the car for a run after the coolant change, and it drives without fault, average mpg is saying 50+ miles, so I'm presuming everything is ok, it's just one of those noises that you can't really tell without some confirmation.
I'd be very grateful for any views / thoughts on this.
