My 200 is on 101k. I started it last night and moved it out of the garage to sort the bad connectors out on the main beam stalk (all done ok
) and it sounded fine at cold idle. No different to and old-ish diesel from cold. It really is only under load, and it is pronounced knocking.
I'll get a video as promised and hopefully the sound will be clear enough on my mobby...
I'm very familiar with the cam issue, and when renewing a leaky cam cover on the current Anni I had a good look at the cam, and it hasn't go the revised black followers under it, so I'm not sure it has been done. They're a funny thing though, and can/have gone (on a friends) as early as 16k with
full vw history....
Cheers all
Tom
