hi,

I've had a problem with my engine ratteling and basically sounding like an old claped out diesel.

I have been advised that it needs a Camshaft kit and new oil pump. I had a look on the net for parts with not much luck.

Any of you guys advise me of where i can get parts in the UK or just better to get them from the dealer?

Might just see how much toyota will take to repair, tho am betting it won't be cheap :) , realy don't want to part with the car.

Thanks

have you actually made sure u have "enough" oil in the engine ?

yea the oil was fine, a mechanic looked at it and advised what was needed. He told me that because of the pump the oil wasn't reaching the top of the engine,

causing tthe damage :(

And i always got the oil / filter changed regularly.

hello mate

what kit you're talking about? cam shaft + bearings or what?

really looks strange you've a problem with the oil pump -- any oil alarms were available?

i can imagine what is the condition of this oil pump. yes the reasonable question is what is the total milage and whether engine has been overhauled (if any)

are you sure the problem is with oil pump? may be the problem is connected with gaps in both main and con rod bearing shells? or i am mistaked - the camshaft has own oil pump for lubrication? cheers/Igor
