So here I am. I had my W203 C180 for 140k with the engine management never lighting up. Now a year on and 10k miles into with my W204 C250 CGI (48K on the clock).
I had a rather rough start up (rather sounds like diesel and soon settles down) with no EML yesterday. Today it became more obvious and EML came on too, link to the video is given below. The noise is not there with stop start. Olly's is fully booked until next week to plug it in. Sleepless night until then for me.
Is it the dreaded timing chain/cam shaft? Would I wreck the engine if I drive it?
