'Pingping' noise - help required!

Forum: 

Sporty needs a bit of help! Heard a 'pingping' noise last week, happened again last night so looked up in book said to check coolant and rad levels, all checked and topped up fine. Happened again this morning.
Book says to take to garage to check for leaks. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there anything I can look for myself?
Have just had all breaks and discs done so am not flush at the moment!
Help/assistance/experience greatly appreciated!

Hi Sophie, If the noise is

Hi Sophie,

If the noise is coming from the engine, then it could be something straightforward such as dodgy fuel working it's way thru, and/or may just need a good basic tune-up and service. Does it do it when under load, i.e accelerating?

Have you had to top-up the water/oil regularly?
