I think there might be something wrong with my car.
I was trying to explain to Brendan the other night a sound that sounds like its coming from intake #4 cylinder. It sounds like a rattle and it gets louder and faster if I rev and it gets quieter and slower when the rpm starts to drop.
Then when I put my ear down by my drivers side wheel, the engine kinda sounds a bit like a diesel. When I go to the passenger side it sounds normal.
I pulled my valve cover off just now and everything looks good except a bit of scoring on the intake of #4 cam lobes. It's not that bad though.
Possible rod bearing starting to go?
