i got a 108 cdi,
and its making a sort of tap/nocking nois , but only at sertain times,
for example if i accelerate hard, no noise,
on tikover , no nois
revving whilst stationary , no nois
but if say crusing at 50/60 mph in 5th, there's a quite loude tick tick tick noise, sound almost like tappets, but if it was them surly i would hear it when on tick over.
im gonna try see if the manifold is loose maybe, or reseculating valve to turbo maybe, but im pretty much stumped,
i dont wanna keep ignoring it untill somethig expensive happens,
any help would be greatly apreciated,
many thanks,

somtimes low yes but never ran out of fuel, and there has not been any trouble with hot starting or anything like when it was the injector,
if all else fails today, il have to take it in for the injectors to be checked, but its soooo expensive! and i spend 500 quid on injectors last year, doh!!
