Renault Engine 1.2 TCe (H5FT)
Re:Re:1.2 TCE engine noise
This Category is specifically for the engine 1.2 TCE as there seems to be a suggestion that there may be a floor with the design.

Boyko has made the suggestion that there is a more dedicated thread for all things relating to this Engine, so here it is starting with the email he sent me.

Sorry to say we do not accept Members uploading video due to the larger space required on the server to hold the data.
We do not permit the ZIP files to be accessible via the actual forum due to security implications for other members downloading the file unless it has been checked first by us and then it will only be available possibly via the download section and would need to be uploaded by an Admin.

I would suggest, if you do not already have one, setting up a Youtube account where you can upload your video files and then link to that file to display it here.

If you need any further assistance, please let me know through the Help Desk on the top menu.

Mine's only done 7500 miles since new like yours. Like you I have never had the bonnet open (nor on my previous car), that's why I buy new. I should imagine that all engines rattle when cold until reaching working temperature. I can't honestly say I have noticed. Why did you open the bonnet in the first place? I would only do so to top up washer bottle for example although that gets done during the service so I don't need to bother. Also my USB stick is permanently on full blast so I would never notice anything amiss until the engine dropped out!

I check water and oil levels every week (habit) and always done this with the engine cold.
but this time i decided to open the bonnet with the engine running and at normal temp thats when i noticed the noise.
 i have put a youtube link so you can hear the rattle noise.
thanks

See what you mean sambec. I'll have a look and listen under the bonnet tomorrow morning and see what mine sounds like. Will let  you know.

that sounds very like the injectors firing or the turbo dump valve 

I dont want to think it could be the cam chain tensioner not at this millage
