Noises (Cold Engine)
With a cold engine, what sort of adnormal noises might a 156 produce?
I can't suss whether it's the fan belt, variator or something else... (admittedly I haven't had the bonnet up yet to have a closer listen) N 156 2001 2.0TS Veloce.

What engine ? My old (2000) 2.4 diesel is noisy (clattery) in the a.m till it's warmed up a bit - esp in this colder weather. Graham

Probably the beginnings of my fan belt - sounds like it's slipping a
bit. Add that to new sparks, time to change cambelt (37.5k statue miles) and possibly brakes, I think I'm going to have an expensive year!  N
