If you want to book a ticking or rattling noise repair in Totton, you can compare quotes from our network of thousands of garages and mechanics, find the best price and instantly book online.
The main roads in Totton are the A336, A326 and A36. The nearest motorway is the M27, which passes north of the town and travels southwest to Portsmouth, a 35-minute drive away. You could also compare garage prices in Southampton since it's just five miles from Totton. If you need public transport, Bluestar is the leading bus operator in town, and the railway station is on Station Road North, with trains running on the South West Main Line.
Ticking and rattling are two closely related noises you might hear from your car. If you listen closely to where the sound is coming from and when it happens (while accelerating, for instance), you might be able to work out the cause.
The first thing to check is whether the engine oil is low, requiring a top-up - this is the best-case scenario. If your car is rattling and the sound is coming from the engine, it could be caused by a loose serpentine belt or timing chain. From the car's rear, it might be a loose exhaust or a broken catalytic converter, and the other possibility is worn suspension, which can cause rattling from the front or rear of the vehicle.
Possible explanations for ticking include worn spark plugs, knocking engine rods, dirty valve lifters and misaligned valves. You can learn more about these issues here.
Ticking and rattling noises should be taken seriously as they sometimes indicate a problem with the engine that could cause further damage if ignored.
