Cheers Wrexy for your mail. Thanks for the offer Chrisp, I have a copy now.

Good news, my car does not sound like that. Just had to make sure.

Cheers.

Default

anybody else got the sound file.

my 93 wrx sounds knocky when its cold. once warm its fine.

seems to knock when cold when you put the engine under a bit of load. i,e reversing out of the garage when cold

think its either

a) tappet
b) piston slap
c) early stages of bearing failure

Very difficult to diagnose as car is off the road for winter and would have to be left over night at a subaru specialist which are all 10s of miles away from me
