hi all,

i have an annoying ticking coming from the engine on my 2009 320d. see vid below.
i cant tell where its coming from but its loudest from the right side of the engine. it could be bouncing around on the sound covers tbh.
its a fast ticking and goes up with the revs. if you blip the throttle it goes momentarily. its there hot and cold and starts doing it about 2 seconds from engine start.
would you consider this injector noise fuel system or a more sinister timing belt noise? i think its a bit too fast for timing belt IMO. very annoying when you park up next to a wall ect.
reason i ask is cos if it is suspect timing belt noise i will get it looked at by a garage.

thanks all

andy

I'm having fuel related issues with my injectors... no codes but, I have a similar noise.

I think they are leaking, very jumpy idle, exhaust smells like gas...

Sounds like a normal Diesel to me?
