Hi ........... b4 i take my 98 c2 in for tappet noise it would be nice to get an honest opinion from someone on here please. car has covered 81000 with fpsh. She uses very little oil, 1/2 ltr in the last 3000 miles, but when it reaches the lower point on the dipstick you can hear a tappet on the offside ticking when the engine is up to normal temp. It would be nice to get some prior advice before i take her in to local indy. "cheers" & a merry xmas & prosperous to all us porky pilots!! spencer

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
