Hey everyone

so recently I’ve been having a issue where my car will knock at low idle. It started shortly after replacing the Power steering and alternator belts (ac compressor doesn’t have a belt on it atm). I replaced the power steering belt because it walked itself off and the alternator looked sketchy. It started where it would knock a little bit on a cold start when I reved it up past 1k rpm but it would stop knocking once it got to like 1200. And then wouldn’t do it again after it warmed up. Slowly it started to do it for longer after it warmed up and would do it multiple times a day even if the car wasn’t fully cold. I just did a valve lash like a month ago.

I pulled both belts off to confirm it wasn’t the belts and I’m going to order and oil pressure Guage to make sure everything is correct. Other than low oil pressure what else could it be… timing belt tensioner? If anyone has any ideas or easy ways to diag it would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance

 

Bump.
