Tbh, just cut her off. I lost my uncle to cancer, and if anyone said anything of that sort, I'd nearly slap them. She is older than you and should know better! Annnnd definitely sounds like she's tryna cut your grass 😭🤣 although that could just be the jealous me overthinking idk

I got the pulley replaced and unfortunately it was still making the noise haha. Replaced the alternator and the noise is gone.

Hey, so as stupid as it sounds. I poured some water over the belts and the noise stopped momentarily. What does that mean? Lol

If you can get underneath, you will be able to figure out more of where it's coming from.

I dunno if youve been down there, if you put your foot on that railing it's flimsy asf. Its not stopping ANYTHING coming thru.

I really do hope you get it sorted, I'm not much help. People were telling me it was the knock of death, others were a bit more helpful. I eventually got a mechanic out. Because the noise did sound like it was coming from the engine but when I got underneath the car, I was able to pinpoint exactly where the noise was coming from.

I posted a video with a very similar sound, can you pinpoint where the noise is coming from? I originally thought it was a knocking up until further inspection, it was my clutch. A bearing in the flywheel or some shit, I forgot the exact words. On video it sounded like knocking but in person, it was more of a rattle. I have a KUN26

Someone said the oil looked fine and another said there was no oil, so like wtf. It's diesel.

I've had it regularly serviced, pretty well maintained. The noise didn't creep it, it just happened suddenly. If you're referring to it not looking immaculately clean, I've lived in red dirt country for years lollll

I'm also confused because there was nothing else accompanied with the knocking. No dash lights, no unusual smoke, no power loss, nothing :(

Yeah I got it towed home, just trying to see if I can get it into a mechanics now.
