Can you please explain to me what's a "gudgeon bush" ? tia -
Sorry I created a little bit of misunderstanding... mine is a 3.4 996 :( I have just read another thread saying that by overfilling oil by 0.5 quart noise disappears! Now I am even more confused about possible causes. Teo

Good explanation, I am more and more convinced that the idle ticking on the right bank isn't a bad tapped but something related to other components or a lubrication problem (clogged duct?). However those parts doesn't belong to the 3.4 (996) engine, they are part of the improved variocam (plus) of the 3.6 version, so my problem actually should be a different one :( cheers Teo

hi there my 98 C2 does the same ticking on the right bank at idle when warm and I am hearing everyday more and more people complaining about this noise when the engine gets older I was thinking about a sort of lifter wearing, now I am glad to hear that replacement doesn't solve the problem cause luckily I never decided to do that and probably lifters (mines included) are ok and the problem lies somewhere else my oil pressure at idle when warm is somehow low but still ok (1.2 - 1.5 bar) changing oil from 0-40 to 5-50 maybe can ease the problem but now question is: why only right bank do make noise?
