Hello,
once again I'd like to ask for your kind help.
As I mentioned in other posts I have a 2000cc Diesel 75 of 1999.
The problem I'm experiencing started suddenly today: an abnormal and loud sound (like a tak-tak-tak...) coming from the engine at low rpm (below 1000rpm). The noise starts a few seconds after I ignite the car.

Did any of you experienced anything similar? What was the problem in your case? My garage is about 15km away; in principle I could drive the car there, though I suppose this would be risky and better avoided, am I correct?
I look forward to your replies, for which I thank you in advance!
Kind regards,

Enzo
