Noise that's not easy to describe but..

When the engine is at idle it sounds like a set of high pitched bells ringing, under load it decreases so mainly at idle. Not the best description but I am told its nothing unusual? It a 2005 Se with 103k, runs great generally speaking, cambelt replaced at 100k.

Could be just normal diesel 'ping'. Try changing brand of fuel and it might go away Confused

Could be the compressor for the air suspension. If this is running constantly, I would get it checked out.
