Hello there,
I'm having a bit of an odd issue - on startup I can hear a tapping noise from the engine, this goes away after a while (maybe a minute?)
Oddly if I turn the ignition off, and start the car again - the car doesn't make the noise at all?
It's a 53 plate 8v active with 50k on the clock.
EDIT: Also, when I got the car it would idle at 900rpm, now on startup it hovers around 1100rpm, and drops down to 900rpm after warming up - is this just a cold issue?
