Oh I don't think I like the sound of
that! This is starting to sound expensive to fix....
Zoiks!
So I think I'll go pop the hood, fire her up and
manually throttle up. I think I should be ale to hear
it then if I have a leak....
hummmmm..... Here's hoping...

Sounds like it might be an exhaust
leak in the header pipe, or exhaust
manifold.

Hi all! I wanted to ask a quick
question for the group mind before I started
google-digging.
I think it's been answered before here, or at
least I
have a vague memory of the topic from a year or so
back...
I have a '84 300d (turbo) and I have let her sit
for
the last two years. Last week I fired her up, (and
she
started up no problems) let her warm up for about
15-20 minutes and then proceeded to drive her lightly
each
day since then.
I have noticed a few things I need to fix
starting
with new injectors and fule lines/filters as there
seems to
be a slight "rattle" from somewhere up there and I
figure
new injectors is a great place to start.. and some
other
minor things, but there is one new noise that I can't
place.
So, when I hit about 20 mph I will start to hear
a
slight ticking from what appears to be behind the
glove
box. As I drive faster the clicking reves
up and gets loader and faster in synch with the
engine.
When I idle back down to about 20, it slows
down
and goes away.
Does anyone know what this could be? Is there
a
vacuum pump up inside the dash or on the other side of
the
firewall? ( I seem to remember that there may
be) Could it be door lock pump or some such up in
there? I think I have some slight vacuum
leaks in general as she seem to shift a bit hard and
the
door locks are slow.... it may be the/this pump????
Anyway, any thoughts would be appreciated.
