Hello Club Lupo,

Not been on here for a while but I need your help.

Quite recently my Lupo 1.4 16v has started making a knocking noise on statup and while driving.

The knock does not sound to speed up while driving but can sometimes get louder when in lower gears.

I did a full oil change including filter just over 6 months ago.

Not had a full service for over 12 months.

I have heard that Forte top End could solve this issue but have also heard the flip side saying that it could ruin the tappits.

Can you please advise? I will upload a Video shortly.

How long has it been knocking? like a few days? a week or two? the longer you've left it the less likely some cleaning would fix it..

and are you sure its in the top end or bottom end?
