On start up when cold I'm getting a noise reminicent of an old diesel with a dodgy exhaust.
Goes away as soon as the engine has warmed up (a couple/five minutes max) then everything runs really smoot and quiet.
Its not the manifold studs...or the exhaust blowing...sounds as if the noise is coming from the front end...any ideas please????
