"I am looking further into it this week",
The videos were taking on the weekend, when my mechanic was not available
Thanks for the sarcasm though

Btw, my right control arm bushing seems to be shot, so we're starting from there

Of course ..
Here are a couple with very clear and loud bearing rattle sound. (everyone can hear this)
But mostly it starts with slightly ticking or rattle sound .
So in both of the videos it's way too late and probably the crank is damaged !
Everytime when I'm listen to those videos I'm putting my Pioneer headphone on and after a couple of years and after xxxx times and xxx videos later, and even when the noises are really very slight... I've learned how our S65 "NOT" should sound !
BTW....I really hope we never hear this sound on our S65...

So a regular, not "irregular", ticking from the lifters/injectors, even if it seems a bit loud, is fine?

I have a video, maybe I should just upload it.

I swear, this place makes people paranoid... Ha!
