back at it with my tdi, 2 things:
how can you tell which engine it is? is it part of the vin or stamped anywhere?
can oil pumps be in spec but make gear clatter noise? i have, what sounds to be valve clatter from the top end because of lack on oil. i am going to install an oil pressure gauge at the top of the filter housing to see what its putting out. i have also heard of over heated oil coking to hydraulic lifters stopping theyre ability to compensate for lash.
any other suggestions?
thanks justin
