Hello,
So I bought an NT 2009 3.2 147KW, very happy with the car but there is a rotating/humming sound coming at low idle during load (Car has 182K on it).
This is what I have done to see if it got better:
* I changed the aircon belt and the alternator belts, checked the pulleys.
* Changed to a high-quality oil and filter (Synt 5W-30)
* tried to turn off the aircon.
* Took a look through the oil cap to see the timing chain guide, which looks fine.
I also noticed after lifting up the vehicle with the engine running, that there was a ticking sound coming from between the engine and the automatic gearbox.
Chain tensioner was changed at Mitsubishi workshop in early 2018 (recall) with the previous owner when the car had about 160k on it.
If it was to be the valve lash, wouldn't it be noticeable during idle without load?
How much work to do adjust valves on this car, is it a guide out there?
Looking forward to your paj advises
