Hi Everyone

i drive a shogun sport 2.5td animal 2002/52 plate. The problem i have is an engine rattle / chatter when the car is up at normal driving tempreture. The car seams fine when starting from cold and i only notice the rattle etc when accelarating through the gears when the engine is warm. Above 2500 rpm ists not as noticable. The main dealer wasnt sure and estimated what it might be. the mentioned a posible fuel injection pump and possibly balance shafts... the estimate for works that it might not be was around 5k inc time to strip the engine.
just thought i would try the forun for help

Have yu looked to thought that it could be drive train related? Ive seen this on sum models , 2.5 and also 3.2 TD. One i have noticed this on sum models , Pajero Exceed 3.2 and a few 2.5 TD the drive belt tensioner pulley , when warming up at low acceleration the tensioner and pulley vibrates at low engine speeds, makes a light GRRRRR noise. Also , passive bosy heat sheilds on the down pipe , as they expand with heat , and sumtimes they rust at the turbo stay to collector pipe, and when warm thay chatter/grrr noise.

Yu may also wanna check yur charge air collector out and in pipe to make sure its not rubbing anythin near. On sum models tho , a chatter /grrr i have found to being omitted by the turbo charger turbine . Because of poor oil or coolant circulation. mainly oil passaged slightly clogged due to heat. A worn turbine bearing will cause this also. But in aspects it would be lack of oil circulating to the turbo, as for when the engine is kault/cold the oils viscosity is thicker , so the pressure is higher at idle and other rpm , but when the engine is warm the oils viscosity breaks down and becomes a little thinner , so all the high pressure high libe properties are nto there anymore.

check all exhaust pipe brackets esp the one attached to the bell housing.

could also be a loose adjuster bushing on the alternator mount.
