Death rattle or nothing to worry about?

yfo866 · Aug 4, 2020

My Disco 2 TD5 makes an odd noise from tickover when i boot it. It doesn't happen if i raise the revs gently, only WAM! from tickover.
Any thoughts?

I meant to upload it here straight from my phone but the 35 seconds clip is 72MB!

Take off the drive belt and see if it makes a difference

Does TD5 have a knock sensor?

Nope. It's only the V8 that has it

Suggest something is moving (engine mounts perhaps) when you blip the throttle.
