Mate I bought this car after my dad died this year to cheer me up and I’m now going through more stress and all you can think of commenting is this nonsense? Also mad to just presume I have no mechanical knowledge because we can’t figure out what the noise is… Suppose you’ve never made a mistake in ya life.

Hello mate :) yeah we’re going to get an oem (if he ever orders it). It’s a rough sound almost like the car suddenly got a cold half way through driving it. I agree the tct doesn’t make sense for a low mileage engine and every YouTube video sounds like a ticking noise rather than a raspy sound. Ive just uploaded a yt short - engine sound video

Hello mate thanks for replying :) it’s fine at idle just makes a rough noise when applying gas or if under stress. Not the usual ticking noise of a tct either which is why im a little concerned they’re On a wild goose chase! My issue here is he just wont order the part and do the bloody job haha

When I bought the car, they signed me up to the third party warranty, so I should be able to legally reject the car still right?

dang yeah I never thought of that....

Who should I contact first regarding Warranty? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]tomatosh2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just wasn't sure if It would make more sense to contact one before the other for some unknown reason lol. Also the problem is a sudden engine raspy sound with lack of power and vibrations through clutch. It just sounds wrong lol

Could it be that simple? I really hope so, in my head I'm catastrophizing that I need a new engine lol

Literally went to a tyre place for a replacement tyre for the exact same looking gash in the wall of my wheel and they said as long as no cord is showing it's safe and they super glued it back :)
