Knocking ! Wed, 25 February 2004 00:25 Go to next message
What are the early signs of bearing noise?

I know that once the bottom bearings are gone they make a clatter dependant on revs..

What i'm getting is a bottom end knock, between 1000-2000 rpm when cold, it rises with engine revs and completely disappears over about 1800 revs. When the engine gets warm there is no noise whatsoever.

Am i looking at a bottom end rebuild shortly?

Cheers
adi

Is it from the reciprocating mass or the oil pump, ie, does it make the noise more noticabley after a long rest, after oil fill ups, on morning start ups as opposed to quick succession start ups?

after long rests.. ie in morning, after a day or two etc. Come to think of it its normally worse after a long gap between usage (The car isn't used very often)

Noise seems to be coming from the bottom, its worse under the car. No noise when starting from warm, or if only been left for a couple of hours.

No noise once that car has warmed up slightly after a cold start (few mins).

Is that good or bad?

Cheers for any help..

is this a 1jzgte? If so these normally dont have many problems unless ill treated. Big end bearing sounds like your problem is, and if it is, stop driving your car NOW. the more your crank turns, the more you are scratching and ruining it!
