Hi Everyone,

My '89 740 16V (210 K) just started making a noise today that sounds like a valve tapping or maybe piston slap. I can't tell which. It does it through all rpms,too. I checked the exhaust manifold gasket and that seems OK. Any thoughts? It doesn't run bad, but the noise worries me a bit. The timing belt and valves were redone 2 years ago due to a broken timing belt (done by a Volvo tech).

Cheers,
Dave
