I have recently had the oil separator replaced, an engine flush and new oil/filter installed which hasn't remedied the situation.

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.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Porsche Club GB: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, Whenever I put my foot down to give my car a good pasting I end up with a very noisey engine when I stop. There is a loud ticking from the left bank somewhere. If I proceed to drive normally for a while or turn the engine off for a few minutes it goes back to normal. It sounds like a knocking cam or tappet type of noise but it can't be either as the noise goes away once I treat her nice again. Are the 3.4 engines partial to oil starvation anywhere? I have recently had the oil separator replaced, an engine flush and new oil/filter installed which hasn't remedied the situation. Are the lifters a common problem? If so, how difficult are they to replace? I'm nervous about putting my foot down now which is embarrassing when other oiks want to try it on !
