Previa tappet? - martine
Hi,

Bit of advice needed...I have a 2002 Toyota Previa (60,000m) which is running fine except yesterday when started made a loud tapping sound. The sound faded after a min. on tickover and is now inaudible and the engine sounds and feels fine.

My initial reaction when I heard it was tappets but why would it fade and then be fine on subsequent starts even when cold?

Any advice/suggestions much appreciated.
