Engine making noise

George Holmer · Aug 22nd, 2019, 17:59

My engine is making a drumming noise. At idle, it is slower and it gets faster as I rev the engine. I made a little film, hope it works.

Any ideas? Car is a Volvo V40 1.8 petrol 2002 manual.

(The noise at the end is just the window going up.)

It sounds like the VVT pulley. You can unplug the VVT solenoid to see if it makes a difference. See my guide here: http://www.volvohowto.com/how-to-che...o-s40-and-v40/
