Hi everyone,

Here is a new proud 3 weeks hijet 1.3 van (s85, 2003 ) owner from The Netherlands.

Last weekend i took the hijet on a long drive about 4 hours, no high speeds, about 40 mph at max.

Today i started up my hijet and drove a bit a few minutes around, suddenly i heard tick tick ticking noise. I drove slowly back home.

I made a small video from the ticking sound:

On this video i slightly lift my foot of the gas pedal:


Anyone know what might cause this sound ?

It happens after the hijet is driven for a few minutes. It sometimes stops when the gas pedal is released slightly. It seems to happen in all gears (except 5 cause didn't want to drive that fast). The ticking speeds up when you press the gas pedal, it than is a continue tick or even screech.

Put the seat engine covers down....be much quieter or turn radio up!
Seriously possibly tappets a bit too big a gap and need adjusting, oil level OK? Tapped sound would change with speed/revs.

I think it could be the propshaft UJ.
I always felt there was a very slight noise when chuntering along, I replaced badly failing propshaft with one from a breaker and subsequently had to replace that one. I now have brand new one from Mondoporter of sicily and am pleased to say I don't notice any unusual sounds.
Check to see if there is any play in the shaft is my advice.
BTW my pickup is 2003 too.
