What's that tapping sound?

Is that tapping noise the valves or the chain tensioner? Or something else?

Could be because it's using the wrong oil, i noticed this with my car, try a semi - synthetic. If the timing chain has been done i think this is a problem with the hydrolic valve lifters, they are the little cap like covers covering the valves, the cam shaft sits on top of these, but you can buy a cleaner that you tip into the oil which tries to get the crap out of the lifters

@stanworth88 I always had the oil changed at the dealer when I had this car

i thought valves at first but i doubt valves bc of the way it sputters sometimes. turns from a tick to a vibration

@onewingedangel326 Hmm I'm thinking it was probably just the injectors

los taquis hidraulicos. cheka el aceite del motor. o una limpieza de inyector no estaria mal, con ultrasonido. (y) suerte.

Injector tick sounds very similar hard to tell in video. check other videos with injector tick.

@Xbox360Player350~ yes they are hydraulic... but they also need adjusting with shims. Its a weird setup.

@marek0086 It had hydraulic lifters so I thought so adjustment was needed
