My Valves Are Knocking
i had that same problem with my a6 head but my buddies all helped me, and idk if they knew what they were doing?? we used a screw driver in the spark plug hole aqnd found each TDC and adjusted em to spec off that...but my car still knocks so the heads being sent somewhere else to get fixed..good luck, its hard to find help of adjusting valve
Here you go um read it all at the end is where it will go over it again... Basically there is 2 diff ways to do it do each at TDC or do it in 2 step put you engine in TDC on 1 this means the closes cylinder to the timing belt needs to be at the peak of the cumbustion camber.. Then adjust them all 4 on #1 and adjust the intakes on #2 and the exhaust on #3 then turn the crank shaft 360 and the cam will only go 180 it will be on the bottom just make sure the #4 cylinder is at the top position also you can see the valves over lap if you keep watching them... Then just do the opposite.. And you are done torque the nuts to 14lbs the rest of the info is under the hoodie.... The sohc will make more of a tick because of the valve rocker arms head design its not sumberged in oil like the B series on the B the valves rocker arms sit down in the head on the sohc they are up and barely any oil so its easy to hear them.. Also the injectors will tick to..... Also before you do this take your oil pan and see if you have any shavings in there.. If so dont bother with the valves adjustments..
