Hi,
I've got a 2009 Dynamic with the 105hp Multijet and one of the things that always bugged me was that the motor is relatively loud. Being that this is my first diesel (bought it new), I figured maybe it was normal. However, in the last few days I get the impression that inside the car the noise is not normal - kind of an annoying humming. I'm convinced that something in the engine bay is touching the frame as when I get out of the car, the noise is only the steady clicking of the motor. I've gone over everything (exhaust, motor mounts, hoses) but can't see anything wrong. The noise isn't a metal on metal sound, more like a hum. Anyone have this issue on their Dobbie? Is it normal?
And while I'm ranting about noises, how come that some days the engine clacks like crazy at low rpm's and other days she's as smooth as silk? You'd think the car was moody or something Maybe I'm not catching the turbine somedays?
Thanks,
Tom
