How's your oil level? The 1.8vvti was tappety.i filled up with oil an it went away?

[ADECROSS]

All oil levels are OK

I have made a video on WhatsApp but I do not know how to send it to this site.

You can get your tappets (valve clearances or lash adjusters) adjusted but it's not a DIY project if you're not fairly experienced.

It doesn't sound too bad to me from what I can hear. It's a chain driven double OHC all-alloy engine, they always sound a bit "cammy"

Thank you all for your feedback.

I apologise for not sending a reply sooner but I have had internet problems.

It is has a 1CDFTV 2.0LT engine and it sounded like a tractor in the cabin. Someone suggested that I should flush the engine and refill. 

I did this and it the improvement was quite noticeable.

Thanks once again for all your comments.

airbox intake pipe rattle? that's a common one for getting mistaken for exhaust or tappet noise
