Hello... my car is still not working the way it should... where are the Gur=
u's in here=3D) really need your $1000, not only your $0.02 =3D)
This is what hapens:
When the car has been parked for a few hours and i try to start it has valv=
e ticking like crazy, just the second you turn the key you can hear it even=
with the doors closed, the car wont start and the ticking sound continues =
for a while.. it also sounds like there are no compression in a few syllind=
ers during startup when its cold... so after a few minutes the car starts o=
n maybe 2 cyllinders, then one more comes along and then one more and one m=
ore with a few second's in between... the car ticks the first 15 sec's or s=
o when it finally starts, but then suddenly it ruuns smooth.... sometimes =
it stops firering on cyll nr 1 but comes back.. so when the car is at work=
ing temperatur there is no valve ticking and as i said it runs great, it pr=
oduces the exact amount of boost as it has always done.
So what can be wrong?
there is no increase in fuel consumption, nor is there any kind of smoke. n=
o oil leaks, there is now new oil in and there is enough oil..
i checked the timing belt also, that is tight and looks like new..
so i really hope some of you have an idea.. so far i am using the car to wo=
rk.. but i'm looking for a second car asap..
regards
jan Nielsen
