supra_dave Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 As the above post suggests my friends supra has a rattle in engine at just before 3000 revs. does anyone have any idea what may be causing this ie big ends?? Oil pressure is still good and where it should be. Please help thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trebor69 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Will you post up the possible answers as to where this noise may be coming from please mate? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Big end shell bearing is my guess. Could be something else like a wrist pin; but deffo something in the bottom end. Mine started doing exactly this a few weeks ago....I'm pulling the engine out this week! Will be taking it apart to have a look but if I find the cause, the whole process is major surgery for anyone else with the same issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Hang on, just re-read that and before I come across as the merchant of doom, a few questions to see if you potentially have the same issue as me. Does the rattle go after 3k? Does it get louder with speed? Does it do it while driving and if so, can you replicate this at a standstill? Try reving the engine with your head under the bonnet; any odd noises? Any events that may have caused this; I'm thinking of hard pulls etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trebor69 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 My timing was out giving a little rattle between 2.5 and 3k but its gone now I've timed it up correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
