Engine metallic tapping / knock
Hi fellow Disco lovers.
Bought a Disco 4 a few months ago. Have noticed a strange rattle / tapping from the front of the engine. It does not rise or lower depending on revs, it also comes and goes warm or cold. Click on my YouTube link for a quick video of the noise. Anyone any ideas?

It sounds like the timing belt about to snap, check it out ASAP.
It has also had a new top hose fitted recently.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Mine does exactly the same. It’s the viscous fan.
