Hi guys.
My N16 sounds like it's doing 6000 rpm when it's only doing 2000. It sounds like a rally car. it also makes this loud noise when I start up the car then it calms a little (but still noisy). The only time I get some peace is when I coast (push clutch all the way down). Also, for a few seconds when moving off and also when the clutch is slightly higher than biting point (waiting for green at traffic lights) I get rattling noise. Don't know if it is related.
I took it to a garage about a month ago and he said it could be the exhaust but he doesn't want to waste my money because it could go now or 8 months later.
Have any of you come across this or have any idea what it could be?
Is there a mechanic in London that you guys could recommend? I don't want to take it somewhere that doesn't know what they're talking about/will overcharge me.
Thanks guys
