    TD42ti bad knocking on warm up

    Every morning when I start my td42ti motor I get a bad knocking sound which becomes a very faint knocking sound when warm. Had a heap of stuff looked at and so far no success. Tappets, injectors, timing, crank, big end bearings, looked in the bell housing but all of these appear spot on. Any other ideas on what it could be.

    Mine does it too. Done it since the new motor. Never really worried about it to be honest.

    How many kms have you done and by new do you mean rebuilt? If so this has also been rebuilt

    Yeah not sure what it is but I did hear it on another TD a while back and they weren't concerned about it. I'll worry about it if the engine breaks. :P

    Far from a mechanic me Gents but could it be possible that our old TD42 donks may need some Pushrod cleaning internally?
    Just thinking with symptoms described like blocked human arteries that oil may not make its way up to the rocker, or two maybe, until warmer and more viscous flowing possibly, honestly dunno?

    Have had the timing looked at and injectors checked, unfortunately both are good!
