Ok car was making a ticking noise then threw a belt so had a 3mm shorter belt fitted and sounded like spanners in engine so mate said bottom crank pulley, that changed and terrible noises stopped but...

Mine was lower crank pulley but there is a rubbing noise that comes and goes kinda sounds like plastic arch liner vibrating but none loose and if I turn steering it does it but if I increase revs...

Ok I gave car an oil and filter change and thought that solved it but no, when cold next day the ticking was there and if left to idle it continues but if you take car for a mile or do drive it...

i have the 9-3 2.2 TiD and today it seems to sound more clattery with a distintive ticking noise on idle that goes away when revved or driving but it also has a low rythmic hum and it seems to be on...

Thanks bud cleaning it made a marginal improvement but not much the lurching isnt as violent but its still not really drivable, I mean if you move mechanism with figures it moves and springs back...

Ok i'm wondering if the motor on an EGR can fail because i'm getting running problems, if i connect plumbing wrong the wastegate doesn't function nor does the EGR mechanism when revved and the car...
