Engine Knock or Noises? Use Your Phone as a Listening Tool and Slow It Down.
Рет қаралды 2,950
Күн бұрынI tried to demonstrate use of a phone's "slow-motion video" feature and any movie editing software. I didn't diagnose this problem so the video is "part one" and I hope to eventually take this engine apart and see what is really going on. Hopefully the ideas will help diagnose trouble in the future, but for now it is still fun to watch.
FloridaVanMan is member supported, offering one-on-one help and advice online, in-person and via video. We show the novice how to change motor oil and why our vans are different from any other car they've owned, with color coded dipsticks. For the more experienced we show diagnostic tests explained in layman terms with common supplies, not expensive Mercedes shop tools. For those just getting started we show what to look for when buying a van. And for those at the other end of the road we help find the next adventurer looking to buy your van. We aim to help each member save at least double the cost of membership through these platforms.

Wow that is a pretty cool way of diagnosing the engine and you have a great ear! I am new to the diesel engines and find it hard to know when the diesel sounds normal or not. But I could definitely tell the difference with the slowed down video. Awesome thanks.

I’m hopeful to see this video on how you fixed that noise so I can fix mine aswell

Sadly that video won't be coming. We replaced a piston, honed the hell out of the cylinder and the engine ran great the first two trips. We failed to diagnose the original cause of piston slap, apparently an oil pump or oil jet problem since the engine did not survive trip #3 and pooched a bearing.

Are you sure that the "creepy noise" isn't just you talking while recording and your voice comes out like that in slow motion?

I remember being quiet for the recording, but to be fair that is one thing I am not very good at. LOL

My sprinter is making that same sound

Piston slap. It can be fixed but I suggest trying to figure out why your piston started slapping. We fixed the symptoms on this van, but not the cause of symptoms so the problems returned.

Interesting 🤔. I know it's hard to show on camera but would a automotive stethoscope from harbor freight help? Compare known goods?

I have poked around with my stethoscope and couldn't determine anything worth mention.

I have sprinter van 2006 and it have problem that no one can help me with it has start error with short crank, sometimes it works just fine if I daily start it, and if I didn’t start it for 2 or 3 days the same problem will happen again I have tried a lot of different methods to fix it but nothing works. I’ve changed the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor, I’ve checked the fuel pump and fuel pressure sensor and it’s all working fine. Can you please help me with this issue Thank you
