Not a healthy engine
https://youtube.com/shorts/TWBXET8AFsg
Xc90 d5 56 plate 193500 miles. Had this happen today doesn’t sound too good, metal on metal. Think it may need a new engine it did need rockers and lifters so guessing it’s connected but getting horrific vacuum and noise through the air box as well. |

Had it in my local garage today and they’re confident it’s broken a rocker or 2 so had it recovered upto Hallam and suthern specialists in Swadlincote. They’re going to look at it tomorrow or Wednesday then let me know but they’ve got a 10 plate 185 engine there with 74000 miles on, so looking very likely it’s going to be having that fitted but will keep you updated.

It should not be a difficult/too expensive job. These engines are (usually) very robust, so there is a good chance the replacement unit will be OK

Looks like the car is scrap £2500 plus vat to sort it can’t justify it to be honest gutted is a understatement.
