engine noise

hi everyone new to the jimny world,can anyone tell me if the engines on these little things sound slightly tappy, and is that pretty normal. it sounds daft but it sounds sweet , but at the same time a bit tappy,if any one undrstands that:ohmy: . you can also slightly here it inside if ur at about2000- 2500rpm, when travelling. read a few thing before about them and people do say they were a bit noisy. its a 1.3 petrol, w reg 2000. many thanks clyde.

On the whole i think the engines are quite quiet, however mine does have a slight "tick" to it. Woudnt worry im sure its normal!

cheers for the reply mate, noticed you ve done a 3" lift, what kit did u need , looking at doing a lift myself about 3". but could do with doing as min as poss to start, cheers clyde

I think it's ur injectors and it's normal.

Mine sounds like a sewing machine! And the power to match :laugh:

cheers for the reply everyone,thought it was probably how they should sound,but wasnt 100%, will have to call it singer eh mcjimny:laugh:

get a blowing exhaust and you can't hear anything - especially with no carpets - not even the stereo :side:

get a what !? i want to make mine noisier. i cant hear the engine.. so i keep stalling it. im still a learner and i have to keep my eyes on the rev counter .. which isn't ideal.
Any plans..??

For the lift i installed the procomp kit which is shocks and springs with longer brake flexi hoses. thats all thats "needed" but correction bushes etc are advised.
