Ticking Hilux!

[Mull]

Two weeks as I said already, 140k. Might need to top up oil[emoji15]

?? they are a workhorse. Personally i prefer the simplistics and reliability of the earlier 2.5’s but the later chassis and body / interior of the later 3.0’s is defo more appealing. If the ticking hasn’t seemed to get any louder then dont worry. Regular oil changes is key, and some general upkeep will see you out for a long time yet [emoji106]

Don't suppose its related but I had a loud ticking noise at idle ( suppose that's why its called tickover ? ) on my Navara . Really sounded metallic . Turns out it was one or all of the "V" belts . Replaced them and it was gone ..

Check one of the injectors haven't come loose, injector seals, d4d engine  I've seen the bolts undo under the rocker cover. You might see the plug on top the injector twitching when engine running if really loose.

That’s interesting stubby, obviously I’ve been trawling through google (just to give myself the horrors and ensure plenty sleepless nights[emoji3]) and that was one of the cures, I don’t think it was for hilux but certainly a Toyota engine.
