Wonga Spar Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Sorry, another problem query! Bit of a weird one for any Supra-Sherlocks who fancy a brain tickler. I get a bizarre clicking coming from the engine bay, have done since I bought the car. - It's not a knock, or a rattle, it sounds EXACTLY like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuzW50pnXCk - It only occurs when under load, and is not rev-dependent. - Generally seems louder when it's cold, but this could be me (or oil temp related). - The timing between each "click" is completely consistent, but gets slightly louder the harder the throttle is pushed (regardless of speed). - The easiest way to recreate the sound is to cruise at 40mph, put it into 4th and press hard on the pedal. - I have zero way of accurately locating the source of the sound, as it's incredibly hard to place audibly, and only occurs while driving! - It cannot be heard whatsoever when car is parked and engine idling/revving, again, it's the depth of the pedal press that causes it! My permanent admiration and gratitude to anybody that can nail the cause! Thanks!!

Was worried somebody would say that.... I had a full custom exhaust fitted by M-Tech (including downpipe), should that not have cured it?
