The motor in my Teg has a knock in it. Motor has plenty oil. I'm guessing its a valve or lifter problem. Someone give me some insight. Can't hear knock a lot when car is idle. But hear the tap dancer when going thru gears. Stops at highway speed. Haven't drove I since this happened tho.

Loose valve lash def sounds different than a knock. Post a vid.

Well it sounds like a midget running with tap shoes on to me. Can I post video w/ my phone. Using my phone as I type

Bent valves

I'm going to pay that phone comment no mind. But How much would a valve job be?

tenacious

Bent valves make the car miss right? My car isn't missing.

MKIV TT

Hmmm sounds a bit diff then just a bent valve. Does the midget tap dance when it shuts off lol?

tenacious

No. LOL the Guy I'm taking it to says its most likely a rod knock. I know how it happened most likely now. LOL(rolls eyes) but my baby is going in for surgery tomorrow. Getting high compression parts. Hope she comes thru well. Lol

Yes the car would run like ass.

Also I'd get someone that knows their shit to look at your car before you get taken on a ride for a big chunk of money because you thought you had a rod knock and it ends up being your valve lash is way too loose.
