Hi all!
I am new to club and are hoping some of you might be able to shed some light on a 98' XJR tha I'm looking to buy.
She starts and runs fine. However, when it gets warm, a light, constant tapping noise appears when idle. This goes when throttle is applied. The noise then returns when put in park. My dad has said it might be the wrong oil, another has said it could be the tappets but I'm worried it might be something much more serious.
It only starts when the car is warm. Its not loud and is a rather 'tinny' noise. ]
Does anyone have any suggestion on what it might be?
The car has covered 103,000 miles.
Thanks in advance.
Callum
