Just wonderin wether this sounds normal to anyone ?
1.4 8v with 40,000K on Clock
Just been Serviced by Fiat 2 Months Ago
Checked Oil, Levels etc.. Seems to be fine
Heres the VID:

sounds like your tappets ususally hear them in small petrol engines 1.2 are more common for it. if your ever near a mk2 punto 1.2 it will more than likely sound simular I know mine did. Someone correct me if i'm wrong but I dont think its anything to be concerned about. Maybe a little service will do it some good. Oil and oil filter change and maybe some new spark plugs :confused:

Yeah, we'll had oil and filter change about nearly 2 months ago, just replaced spark plugs 2 weeks ago, I try and look after the engine as most I can. Not sure why this is gone tappy :-(
 
yep thats exactly what it sounds like !....just had a word with my mate whos a mechanic and he mentioned tappets ? said he will adjust them for me at weekend if i want ?
 
Sounds normal the noise is the fuel injectors clicking nothing to worry about
