| Re: Tappety tappety tap!!! A tappy tappet is a happy tappet. Get it in to be looked at. It could be nothing (assuming oil level is ok) or it might be linked to the HP fuel pump.

| Re: Tappety tappety tap!!! Good point, If you not sure the cannister is more of a loud tick than a tap & is incredibly common & nothing to worry about

| Re: Tappety tappety tap!!! Mines doing it a fair bit after a 30-40min drive back from work, looks just to be charcoal cannister and settles down after I let the car idle for a few mins.. Seems to be more frequent with the current cold weather - still drives great ![]() |
