Hi,

My 200tdi has developed a ticking noise from the engine when the engine is running. The ticking increases as more throttle is applied.

At the same time (I am sure it's not coincidence), it's started to really much through oil. I have just been to the lake district and back - about 800 miles and it's got through 2 litres.

Any help would be much appreciated. I really don't have a clue what it could be!!!

Thanks,
HL
 
oil use may have nothing to do with noise, could be a tappet, or maybe broken piston ring which could be connected to oil usage, need more info, has noise been there a while
 
The noise started just before Christmas so has done about 800 miles like it. Before then, there was no excess oil usage.

There doesn't appear to be a great deal of difference in performance. Perhaps pulling away a little slower, although it has been fully loaded. Still sat at 70-75 on the motorway fine.

A mate drove behind me and said that it was producing a bit of a smell, guess that is all the oil it's getting through?
