RE: Difficult to diagnose on internet but..........

By martin edridge - 12/18/2000 12:27:16 PM; IP 195.194.51.129

Before I even read down as far as your last sentence I was going to suggest you try changing the oil and filter. Since this problem only arose after you switched to a thinner grade oil, that looks like the problem, which I think you already knew! With 110,000 miles on it now, I think your engine is entitled to be a little rattly with thin oil in it! I don't know how cold it is there but if I was you I would go back to something thicker as your engine's clearances are talking to you and they don't sound too happy! HTH
Cheers, Martin.

This thread, so far...
