Good day and I hope this finds everyone well.
A bit of a strange/new one for me. Took the 4/4 out for a short drive and stopped in for a few groceries. Upon starting the car up again, I was greeted with some significant engine knocking as if a cylinder was about to give! Engine was still warm. I quickly shut it down and cycled the ignition a few times and starting it up again the noise was still there but not as bad. I lifted the bonnet with the engine running and the noise indeed was coming from the engine. I gave it a gentle revving up and all was fine.
Drove home, ran like a top. It's never done this before. No check engine light either.
Any hints? It's a 16 reg with just shy of 20,000 kms, always serviced, plugs changed a few years ago etc.
Fingers crossed it was just an anomaly!
