It's not going to be a massively big deal to sort it, even if a couple of bits do need changing.
Best and all that.

cheers Enoch,

Thats why I was a little concerned , as it gets louder the warmer the engine gets, rather than getting quieter etc,
so, I,m going to change the oil to a thicker viscosity ( spelling??) & new filter & see if that helps, if not then I,ll look at changing the offending parts.

cheers
andy
Ps... might still get my new tyres
